- Get regimented with your supplements and commit to taking them daily. I high recommend taking a mutli-vitamin, fish oil, green powder and vitamin D supplement for optimal health and wellness. Visit www.genuinehealth.com to learn more.
- Drink as much hydrating fluids as you can to lose weight and boost energy. In the wintertime, we do not tend towards cold water. In order to keep hydration high (which will also keep your skin looking its very best), switch to your favorite type of herbal tea. If you are interested in trying some super yummy teas (the flavor “forever nuts” tastes like candy!), visit www.davidstea.com
- When it comes to exercise, as the Nike ad states, “Just do it!”. If you want a quick mood, energy and strength booster – start to lift weights 2-3 times per day. For quicker results, lift slightly heavier weights than you are used to at a slower pace.
- Take a sugar holiday. Cravings, mood swings, weight gain and fatigue are hard to balance and deal with when refined flours or sugars are on the scene. You do not have to give up naturally sweet foods altogether (i.e. fruits, homemade frozen popsicles, frozen fruits in a smoothie), rather, it is the added sugars found in cereals, granola bars, fruit bottom yogurts, pop, candy, cookies and other baked goods that are an issue.
