Here are a few tips to a healthier you this summer!
- Eco-Friendly: Who knew the best workouts were free?! This summer after signing up for my first gym membership and having several training sessions I discovered the world’s best kept secret: 8 Minute Abs. The source: YouTube! It is fun, safe and effective and can be done every 24 hours! I have already seen results and I am pleased.
- Snack Time: Looking for a refreshing and guilt free snack on a hot summer day? Try Mott’s cinnamon applesauce. If you are feeling adventurous, you could sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon sugar on top and mix it up!
3. Big Gulp: Especially in the summer when you are watching your waistline and bikini body, try to limit your intake of drinkable calories! Cut back on the frappes and lattes and choose water. I do allow one cheat though, my weakness, raspberry iced tea. My favorite is Nestea, which is only 70 calories per can!
4. Summer Sales: When you are taking advantage of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that is going on now, or a Macy’s One Day Sale, really take advantage. Park your car far away and WALK. Do not let your husband (or wife for that matter!) pick you up from the door if you can walk! Take advantage of the opportunity to walk and carry the heavy bags. It is always a good time to have a great work out whether it be with weights or shopping bags, or a treadmill in gym sneakers, or in the mall in heels! Be active and stay active… always! Never give in to the temptation of being lazy!
5. Scale No More!: Another useful tip…say goodbye to your scale. Do not let numbers control your summer or your brain! Work out and eat right and decide what works best and looks the best on you. Do not let your life be ruled by a digital number. Determine your work out and/or diet plan based on what you see, not what you read.
