Today's Tip: Be choosy about the foods you eat.

Choose foods with lower amounts of calories, sodium, sugar, and saturated fat to build a healthier plate.
That means passing up foods like doughnuts, onion rings and fried chicken!

Before you eat, think about what goes on your plate or in your cup or bowl. Foods like vegetables, fruits, whole grains, low-fat dairy products, and lean protein foods contain the nutrients you need without too many calories. Try some of these options.
