Break a Sweat.
Physical activity does more than simply burn calories; it also nourishes psychological wellness. "Exercise is crucial for feeling good about yourself and in control of your life," says John P. Foreyt, Ph.D., professor of medicine and psychiatry at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. And when you have a sense of control, it's easier to stick to a healthy diet. Aim to burn an extra 300 calories per day. That means 35 minutes of running or cycling, 45 minutes on an elliptical trainer or 40 minutes of aerobics. Already an avid exerciser? Try interval training to torch more calories in less time. Alternate between 30 seconds at the highest speed you can sustain and 90 seconds at a comfortable pace.
