Summer is only 13 weeks away!!
February 20, 2011 by Deb
New Year’s resolutions have come and gone, and Summer is just 13 SHORT weeks away………….. This means we have just 13 weeks to really hone in our nutrition and training programs to hit Summer in peak swimsuit condition….Yikes!!!
It can’t be done by dieting alone. And as a matter of fact, DIETING Sucks! I’ve been there. Where its crunch time, where we’ve put off doing what’s needed to drop enough fat to look good before hitting the lakes for the Summer, or simply put those few extra pounds on from not being as active over our lovely Winter months.
Nothing is more stressful than being just a few weeks away from vacation or Summer and realizing you have not reached your desired weight-loss goals. So, I normally start 12-14 weeks out. And rather go on an extreme DIET (which I never do……because they don’t work), I alter my food program…..change things up a bit, eat healthier, workout HARDER… and throw in cardio-intervals as necessary.
One of my FAVORITE non-diet snacks for my sugar tooth is cottage cheese mixed with Greek yogurt and a few shredded almonds thrown on top. The cottage cheese absorbs the flavor of the yogurt, the almonds add crunch… and the whole snack curves your sweet tooth.
I eat this at least once a day on top of my other meals, because it’s that good. It also packs in some great PROTEIN, which helps curve your hunger! Now, if you’re not a fan of cottage cheese, I understand. I wasn’t either until I mixed it with yogurt. Give it a try you may be pleasantly surprised! This has become my favorite #1 healthy snack of all time.
The first step to reaching your Summer weight-loss goals is to PLAN now! Don’t look back at what you didn’t do, simply look forward and then kick it into full speed ahead! If you need some help, give me a call…….
I’d love to help you reach your goals by Summer!
