Warmer Weather Means a Bigger Waistline? NO!


The weather has been warming up, which means BBQ’s and checkered table cloths are right around the corner! From my experience, there is a lot of temptation when the nicer weather roles around—it just feels right to let loose and enjoy fatty party foods and cocktails galore. The bad part is; this obviously WILL NOT help your weight loss and fitness goals.
This time of year, preparation and a positive attitude will really help. Bring your own healthy foods to each party or outdoor outing you plan on attending. This will also help you enjoy the day instead of fighting off a food comma and feeling like a slug. Not only will you benefit, but others around you will as well—people are highly influenced by other people’s choices so maybe you’ll get others thinking about a healthy lifestyle, too!
So hit the store and fill up on fresh vegetables, fruit and food for the grill! You can get very creative with healthy selections—grilled bison filet, chicken, turkey burgers, peppers, seafood, mushrooms, onions, sweet potatoes, apples, mangos, strawberries and corn on the cob! See, there are such a wide variety of bright, healthy foods out there to enjoy.
The best part of sticking to your diet plan is that you’ll feel and look great in your summer bikini! J
