Hey There Bryan “The Fitness Demon” Ortiz aka Brooklyn personal trainer here. Hope your doing awesome!
Winter has been really brutal this year. What better thing to do during the cold season than to sit in a couch and munch on some goodies while keeping yourself cozy and warm? It seems like yesterday when you were struggling to lose your winter coat; before you even know it, summer is in its full effect. The minute you feel warm enough to wear shorts, you realized something:
Beach season is right around the corner and you are not prepared for it! You panic and think of stapling your mouth for a week or two, until you look good in your bathing suit , as your
beach body solution
It can really be challenging to shed excess weight and most people fall into a summer weight loss spiral every year. Crazy diet, starvation, and diet pills are beckoning and giving you hopes of slimming down for that sexy bikini.
Losing weight for the summer doesn’t have to mean starving yourself to look your best in shorts or swim wear. The secret to weight loss is to eat healthy foods; food choices are actually easy to make during summertime because high calorie dishes are less appealing during the hot season.
Take advantage of fresh fruits and vegetables that are at their peak and at their best in summer. Refreshing and light foods are bountiful and keeps you out of the hot kitchen.
I’ve always stated that the best summer weight loss eating program is to load up with natural produce. Fruits and vegetables are low in calorie but loaded with essential vitamins and minerals, plus antioxidants and fiber to help your body flush those unwanted toxins and fats. Aside from their health benefits, they are delectable, juicy, and satisfy the taste buds. Berries, tomatoes, zucchini, melons, cucumbers, peas and other greens are available at farmer’s markets and grocery stores. Forget portion control and go ahead and eat all the fruits and vegetables you can get your hands on. Summer weight loss with natures bounty will do your waistline no damage.
If you are wondering what the healthiest summer weight loss foods are, here is a list of of some great recommendations:
Berries are luscious and sweet but there is more to berries that meets the appetite. They are known to boost antioxidant levels and help reduce the effects of aging. Berries are also rich in
nutrients that help lower cholesterol level.
Watermelons are loved because they are watery, juicy, and crisp, perfect for satisfying thirst during the hot season. If you want a tasty summer weight loss, mix slices of watermelon with milk, water, and ice cubes. Whirl in a blender and your perfect juice is ready in a snap.
Garden salads are the best bet for time and cost efficient summer weight loss meal. They are easy to prepare and the perfect way to get vegetables into your diet. Dress your salad with healthy oils like extra virgin olive oil, walnut oil or your choice of other healthy oils. Salads are a great way of letting yourself off the hook from the hot kitchen.
Healthy eating is your best summer weight loss plan. Enjoy a hearty meal and reap the benefits of losing weight, staying fit, and living a healthy lifestyle.
