By Jean A. Ince Howard County Extension Agent-Staff Chair Super Bowl Game Plan Did you know that Super Bowl Sunday is the second largest day for U.S. food consumption, after Thanksgiving Day? Just as many people are well into their New Year’s resolutions to get healthy here comes the first obstacle to get in our way. To help you score a winning touchdown and stay on track here are eight winning strategies: 1. Have a game plan. Plan a successful defense against food that is high in fat and calories: Equip yourself – have plenty of lower-calorie drinks and munchies on hand. Vegetable trays, cheese and whole wheat crackers, fresh fruit are all good choices. Position yourself away from the food table. Heaping platters of food within easy reach is too tempting. Go in knowing what you will eat. For example, choose to have the three choices you will enjoy the most. You don’t have to eat some of everything just because it’s there. 2. Size up the opponent. Look at the stats on different foods. Compare the Nutri- tion Facts Label on foods for calories, fat and carbohydrates. Eat food from a plate instead of the bag or box so you Montgomery County News photo/DEWAYNE HOLLOWAY can control how much you are eating. SPECIAL BREW.

Check out Walk Across Arkansas which begins in Febru- ary. Lift weights at least twice a week. Physical activity and Amity brewery’s special recipe added muscle boost your metabolism and burn calories. 4. Watch what you eat before the game. Resist overloading on calories before the game.
