The British Nutrition Foundation 'Try, Swap, Change' planner is a personalisable resource to help you TRY something new, SWAP your old habits for better ones and CHANGE your lifestyle, available to download below. 

The weekly planner offers a set of 15 easy to follow suggestions to choose from to help you to develop a healthier lifestyle. Each week you can select three or more of the 15 suggested challenges that work for you, which include tasks like: finding new ways to be active; including more fish in your diet; and cutting out sugary drinks.

There's a range of challenges to choose from, which have been colour-coded to represent different areas of your diet and lifestyle:

  • Green - focus on fruit and vegetables 
  • Yellow - happy wholegrains 
  • Red - getting active
  • Orange - helpful habits
  • Blue - pick your protein
  • Pink - think lower ’s‘ – salt, sugar and saturated fat

The planner can be downloaded as many times as you like and the more the better, so that a healthier lifestyle can become a long-term habit. The planner also encourages you to reflect on how it has gone – which challenges you found easier or more difficult and which you could maintain. You can download your copy at the bottom of this page.
