Summer Weight Loss - 5 Important Tips
Summer Weight Loss - 5 Important Tips You Must Follow

With summer weight loss on everyone's mind and summer being
a few weeks away its time to drop a few pounds or more so
you can fit into your favorite suit! It is actually easier
to lose weight in the summer because there are so many
activities you naturally lose weight without even trying.
So here are 5 tips to kick your summer weight loss program
into high gear!

5 Summer Weight Loss Tips:

1. Stock Up On Healthy Snacks - You tend to eat more in the
summer because it is hot and generally people go out to eat
more often. Make sure you load up on nutrient-dense snacks
such as fruits and veggies, trail mix or dry cereal, whole
wheat crackers and energy bars. Bring these with you when
you participate in outside activities.

2. Don't Let The Heat Stop You - This takes the number one
spot for our rapid weight loss ideas! Many people become
lazy and don't take their summer weight loss seriously
because it's hot. Limit the computer and TV time and save
it for the winter! Try learning a new sport or taking up a
new outside activity. Horseback riding, golfing, outside
belly dancing. Remember that "thing" you've always wanted
to do or learn? Go do it!

3. WATER WATER WATER! Hydration is imperative to staying
healthy during the summer and most people don't realize how
much fluid they are losing when being active. Many people
when designing a summer weight loss program neglect to
include extra water consumption as part of their diet. Its
easily overlooked but probably one of the most important
during the summer. Hydrate before during and after your
activities. Water is almost always better for you than
sports drinks.

4. Its Ok To Take A Nap - There has been studies that
prove taking a nap can lower risk of heart disease and
lower stress. A more prominent study was done in Greece and
showed 3 naps a week reduced heart disease by a third!!! So
pull out that hammock and make nap taking a part of your
summer weight loss repertoire!

5. Exercise In The Morning - Its easier to wake up early in
the summer so use that to your advantage. In the beginning
if you are just starting a program wake up just as the sun
is coming up and go for a walk. The air is much cooler and
it will get your day started on the right foot. When it was
winter it was a good excuse to sleep in under the covers
but now that its summer get up with the sun and go walk for
15 minutes. After 3 or 4 walks I GUARANTEE you will notice
a difference.

Bonus Tip: Although rigorous or moderate activity will help
you lose weight there is NOTHING that will kick your summer
weight loss program into high gear better than a good diet.
You can actually slim down with the proper diet and NO
exercise if you learn how to eat correctly. So as always we
suggest you do these activities and 5 rapid weight loss
tips in conjunction with a proper diet.
