Whether you were lounging on your couch binge-watching Netflix and eating pizza or at Panama City chilling with a margarita, it’s time your body got its own spring break from all the junk and alcohol you’ve been feeding it. Before you continue to read, I am not a doctor or a nutritionist, but these are just guidelines to improve your overall well-being.
Go Green
Make green smoothies your go-to snack. They allow you to satisfy your sweeth tooth while giving you extra vitamins and minerals that you can’t get in a piece of candy. Smoothies are simple to make and the ingredients can be adapted to whatever you have on hand. You can make them with kale, spinach or whatever vegetables you like.
Add flavor to your water
Infuse your water with fruits like oranges, strawberries, kiwi, blueberries, grapefruit or whatever keeps your boat afloat. I hate the taste of water sometimes, but adding a hint of flavor makes it delicious.
Sleep more
Staying up late messes up your circadian rhythm. Your body needs time to reset and reboot. The average adult needs 7-9 hours of sleep in order to function properly.
Eat breakfast
Eat a a fiber-filled breakfast, not just a protein bar. Start your day with a breakfast including whole foods and fruits to help keep your energy levels up and prevent you from snacking often.
Go to the gym
Exercising helps you stay fit, sleep well and build muscle. A combination of cardio exercises and weight lifting should get you back on track.
