Yes, it’s that time again when you are forced to transition from the baggy sweatshirt to the tanks. The awful time when you are desperately wishing that your short shorts still fit the same way they did last summer. It’s a dreaded time for all girls BUT it doesn’t have to be.
We have all packed on those extra winter pounds that hide nicely under our loose fitting sweaters and I think along with the sweaters the pounds should go to.
The best way to do this is to be smart and not have the “easy street” mentality. Anything that sounds too good to be true….is! Doing it the right way will make your body hot all summer long.
Here are some tips and tricks that will help you be the most beautiful beach angel out there!
- Take Vitamin E: Vitamin E is essential for that healthy, glowing skin that you crave in the warm weather. Start taking it in the morning and make it a routine.
- Don’t go back for seconds: After you’ve had your first plate don’t immediately go grab more. Your stomach hasn’t caught up to you yet so it can’t tell if you’re full or not. The best thing to do is wait about fifteen minutes, then see where your body’s at.
- Make Water Your Best Friend: I know, I know you hear this all the time but really drink water all day! It is literally the best flush you can give your body to clean out and make you gorgeous. Also if you only drink milk and water, you’ll have that flat tummy in no time.
- Try not to snack: Make sure that you are eating only at your meals; it makes a huge difference in keeping your calories under control. This way you are not adding up unnecessary calories all day long. If you are about to die and can’t wait to eat then grab an apple, veggies, or some almonds.
- Deep condition: Your hair is starving for some moisture that it has been missing during the winter blues. So buy any deep conditioner and give your hair some lovin!
- Buy your dream bikini NOW: Yep, get that sucker hanging up on your closet door this instant. Of course be realistic but make it a goal that you are working for. If you see it everyday the more and more you’re going to manifest the idea of getting to that point.
- Exfoliate: Buy a great smelling body scrub and let your skin get ready to be bronze and beautiful. It’ll make that dry, dull skin look radiant instantly. Make sure you get the rough spots like your elbows, knees and feet.
- Exercise wherever you are: I get it we have all have extremely busy lives and it’s sometimes really hard to find or make the time to workout. So workout when you can and where you can. Try taking the stairs or walking at your lunch break. Instead of taking that nap, go to the gym. Wake up thirty minutes early and take a quick run. These little things will help you get there.
- Find Your Inspiration: Pinterest just might be the answer to this one. Make a virtual pin board of fitness goals, style goals and anything else that will help you get to your best bikini body.
- Eat More Protein: Get more protein into you diet! Consuming more lean protein will burn more fat, and calories and will thus keep you leaner and meaner. Some of my favorite foods for lean protein? – Salmon, canned tuna, garbanzo beans, tofu, eggs, almonds.
- Be happy: The prettiest people are always the happiest! So never leave anywhere without wearing your gorgeous smile!!
See your gorgeous self soon:)
