Celebrating Memorial Day with a barbecue or day at the beach? Use these Best Life tips to stay on track:Slim down BBQ standards.Making a few healthy swaps can save you hundreds of calories. For example, if you throw a four-ounce burger made with 90-percent lean ground beef on the grill instead of a regular burger, you'll cut 50 calories. Opt for a squirt of lime instead of three pats of butter on your corn on the cob to trim 150 calories.Use your grill for good.For a lighter side or dessert, choose a grilled veggie or fruit dish. Try sweet peppers, onions, fennel, peaches, apples and more. Grilled fruit and veggies are often more flavorful than fresh or boiled versions.
Get active outdoors.Instead of sitting and chatting with friends or family, get moving. Toss a Frisbee with family for an hour to burn 155 calories. Or round up some friends for a game of touch football; play for an hour and torch as many 670 calories.
