As 2017 marches on, more and more Americans’ New Year’s resolutions are falling by the wayside.

It’s not too late for service members and their families at Goodfellow Air Force Base to kick-start a BE FIT lifestyle. The Army and Air Force Exchange Service offers plenty of healthy meal and snack options to service members and their families looking to eat healthier in 2017.

“The Exchange is committed to encouraging a BE FIT lifestyle,” said Teresita Williams, AAFES general manager. “Along with exercise, proper nutrition is critical to health, readiness and resiliency.”

Exchange-operated restaurants at Goodfellow serve low-calorie and better-for-you options like sandwiches with 350 calories or less including turkey breast, oven roasted chicken and roast beef.

For service members and family on the go, Exchange Express locations offer several new snack options for a quick workout fuel-up, including the low-sugar, high-protein bars, available in flavors such as chipotle cherry beef and mango jalapeno pork.

Shoppers hungry and in a hurry can also grab tuna pouches in flavors such as jalapeno, Thai chili, lemon pepper, and sun dried tomato and basil. Food shops also now feature wraps, salads, hummus, yogurt, fresh fruit, milk and hard-boiled eggs.

“The Exchange recognizes how challenging it can be to eat healthy while balancing a military career with family responsibilities,” said Williams. “That’s why Express stores worldwide offer 348 BE FIT approved items. We couldn’t be more proud to provide service members and their families with the nutrition they need to stay ready to protect America’s freedom.”
