neutral  Carol Gullidge: didn't I include this as one of my options?/...fit/fitter - as near as may be/all much of a muchness. My fault perhaps, for posting so many options!
5 hrs
  -> I apologize, but I read your option: Power eating, not the whole comments that followed, so I did not copy you if that is what you mean. What I proposed is not identical so I won't remove it. Regards.

agree  Bubo Coroman (X): I like this because "fitter" is so close to "fatter" that it makes a brilliant contrast. Your Discussion entry is first class too.

  -> Thanks a lot Deborah! Have a magical day :-)) !

Put a spring into your step / a bounce into your stride with smart food choices


Explanation:
this is an encouragement to people to imagine themselves literally bouncing as they walk having shed their excess kilos...

It's used a lot in promoting health initiatives... here are some examples:

To help put a spring into your step and your diet this week, Innocent is launching its first 'green' smoothie - with kiwis, apples and limes.

Put a spring into your step with Nordic Walking!

Until recently, few people had heard of Nordic Walking, but thanks to the word spreading about the health benefits, in the past year it has taken off and there are now an estimated 100,000 regular Nordic Walkers in the UK.
