CHOICES for Success, Inc.
Guiding You Through the Road Toward Success
Going Back to Basics
At CHOICES for Success, Inc., we believe that life is made up of a series of decisions an individual makes. That is why we aim to guide teens, as well as adults, to make better life decisions.
We touch on personal, interpersonal, academics and other areas that concern the holistic welfare of a person, the family, and the community at large. Our upcoming programs will be designed to develop self-care, boost self-esteem, and promote healthy relationships.
Healthy Eating Tips
One way to promote a healthier, stronger "you" is to have a healthy diet
Veggies and Fruits
Mix vegetables into your go-to dishes. Try spinach with pasta or peppers in tacos.
Use fresh, frozen, and canned fruits and vegetables. They all offer the same great nutrients. Just be sure to watch the sodium on canned vegetables and look for fruits packed in water or 100% juice (not syrup).
Pack your child's lunch bag with fruits and veggies: sliced apples, a banana, or carrot sticks are all healthy options.
Healthy Snacks
For a handy snack, keep cut-up fruits and vegetables like carrots, peppers, or orange slices in the refrigerator.
Teach children the difference between everyday snacks, such as fruits and veggies, and occasional snacks, such as cookies or other sweets.
Make water a staple of snack time. Try adding a slice of lemon, lime, or a splash of 100% juice to your water for a little flavor.
Swap out your cookie jar for a basket filled with fresh fruit.
