As the summer season is approaching, you take out your favorite bikini and shorts and realize that you no longer can fit into them. If you still want to wear that gorgeous bikini then it's time for you to start a self detox program and lose some extra pounds. With a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables available, perhaps summer is the best time for you to lose some weight. What you really need to get started is a little willpower and motivation.
You can eat all these great fruits and vegetables raw in salad, boiled or juice. Besides helping your body to detox, eating fresh fruits and vegetables is also a great way to control your hunger pangs. Avoid all those fried, salty and fatty foods and replace them with salads and juices. If you do that you will feel more healthy and fit in just a few days.
If you like to consume fruits and vegetables in salads, make sure you go easy on mayonnaise or other heavy dressings as they carry high calories. Salads are very easy to prepare and provide maximum nutrition. You can easily prepare a dish of cubed fruits and vegetables, grilled chicken, boiled eggs and a dash of lemon.
Getting into good shape will definitely need a little time and your discipline to choose and eat only healthy foods. Both fruits and vegetables have good source of nutrients and vitamins to help you stay light. The best fruit to choose during summer is watermelon. It has low calorie and high water content that help to keep your stomach filled, stop your hunger pangs and help you lose weight. Best vegetables for maintaining great shape are raw cucumber, beetroot, and carrots.
Drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated as it's easy to get dehydration due to the summer heat. Stay away from colas and alcohol. Don't be tempted to eat ice creams, chilled fizzy colas and alcoholic drinks. Replace them with fresh fruit and vegetable juices, or green tea.
Besides choosing to eat healthy foods, exercise is a very important activity when it comes to detox and weight loss. Summer gives you a good opportunity to get involved in many outdoor exercises such as jogging, brisk walking, cycling, swimming, etc.
By following the above steps and with a little bit of discipline on your part, you can easily lose some unwanted weight and get yourself fit into your favorite costumes again.
