Healthy eating tips - Action plan for life
Millions of people make a resolution to lose weight and stop over eating after New Years. Thousands join health clubs and many more try desperate weight loss gimmicks to shed holiday pounds. Unfortunately, many people quit after the first week or two and maintain the weight gained from the holiday.
Well there's a better way. We offer healthy eating tips to help you keep the weight off. The problem is that most people think of weight loss as a temporary endeavor instead of a life long action plan. Any worthy thing in life requires effort and effort requires action on our part. Losing weight will not happen by taking some type of "miracle solution" but requires "real" action from us.
Design an action plan for 6 months to a year of healthy eating and exercise. Several months into your action plan will change your habits for a lifetime so that you can continue to lose weight after 6 months. Contrary to popular belief, YOU are the most qualified person to create a diet and fitness plan because you know your eating habits better than anyone else.
What goes into this action plan?
Below are 5 tips to help you lose weight:
(1) written diet plan
(2) include foods you like
(3) limit calorie consumption
(4) give yourself a free day
(5) include exercise in your plan

Gabarito:
stop dieting
a) stop dieting - Esta opção faz sentido na frase, indicando que muitas pessoas param de fazer dieta após a primeira ou segunda semana.
b) stop not diet - Esta opção não faz sentido na frase. "Stop not diet" seria como "parar de não fazer dieta", o que não é gramaticalmente correto.
c) don't stop dieting - Esta opção também faz sentido na frase, indicando que muitas pessoas não param de fazer dieta após a primeira ou segunda semana.
d) don't stop to diet - Esta opção não faz sentido na frase. "Don't stop to diet" significaria "não pare para fazer dieta", o que não se encaixa no contexto.
e) stop and go on a diet - Esta opção não faz sentido na frase. "Stop and go on a diet" significaria "parar e começar uma dieta", o que não é o que a frase original está tentando comunicar.
