One of the best ways to improve your overall health and reduce calories is to make good, healthy eating choices. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Agriculture Dietary Guidelines suggest that you limit your intake of fat, saturated fat and cholesterol. They recommend plenty of fruits, vegetables, and grain products.

The FDA’s website outlines the number of serving from the Food Pyramid: 1

6-11 servings of bread, cereal, pasta, rice, or other grain products (the base of the pyramid);

3-5 servings of vegetables and 2-4 servings of fruits,

2-3 servings of dairy products and 2-3 servings of meat or other protein,

only sparing selections from fats and sweets (the tip of the pyramid).

An easy way to reduce your calorie intake is to eat smaller portions, combining servings from all tiers of the Food Pyramid. For example, instead of eating two bowl of cereal with milk, try one bowl and an unbuttered muffin or toast. Making changes at every meal can really add up to calorie savings.
