Fruits and Veggies: "Say hello to your lil' friends." (insert Al Pacino Scarface accent)
Have you been working on your fitness? (Like Fergie says.) Most of us are suffering from post-holiday bingers’ remorse. You know the collective consciousness is feeling it by the looks of packed gyms with no available treadmills and yoga studios filled to capacity. With hopes of a new year and adoption of a more balanced lifestyle, here are some simple tips to ease into the new, more healthy and gorgeous you.
- A Friendly Detox – While I have been advised that the temperatures outdoors are too chilly for a full detox, I have been trying to integrate more fruits and vegetables into my daily meals. Instead of drinking plain water, I will squeeze a slice of lemon into my glass. Presto! “Would you like some spa water?” Great for flushing out the toxins.
- Sign Me Up - Registering for a term of classes or getting back into the exercise bandwagon with a friend is a fun way to socialize and tone. So many of my friends say that they push themselves harder and are more motivated when they are in a group. Personally, I have difficulty getting off the couch to roll out a yoga mat. The internal self-guilt dialogue of “Um, I paid for these classes, so I better go” gets me to yoga in no time.
- BANB – This stands for Buy A New Bikini…and if you can, book an all-inclusive.
More importantly, it’s about the attitude (Feel good. Look Good). Everything in moderation and you’ll be just fine.
