I’d like to offer
my two-pence worth to the following advice.
10 Ways to
Feel Lighter by the End of the Day
Think you have to spend weeks before you feel lighter?
Think again. In the course of a single day, there are a number of
things you can do to feel fitter, leaner, and lighter!
Am I suggesting you can lose significant amounts of fat
or weight in a single day?
Not at all, but what I am suggesting is that you can
do a lot to feel fitter and lighter in your daily routine. And there’s a really important reason you want to do
this.
By doing these little things to feel lighter and fitter,
you’ll be way more motivated to hit the gym,
eat healthy, and see
real fitness and fat loss results.
Ready to feel lighter? Ready to maintain a healthy and
fit mindset all day long?
Give these simple tips a try...
10 Simple Ways to Feel Fit All Day Long
1. Start Your Day with a Natural Detox
If you want to kick things off right, start your day with
some hot water or tea with lemon.
The lemon is a natural detox, and it gives your
metabolism a major boost.
Plus it will help prevent over-eating in the morning.
Lemon and Lime
becomes alkaline in the body and your body naturally ‘wakes up’ more acid
Hence the smoker’s ‘need’
for a cigarette. Alkaline is a healthy body.
2. Take Your Time
Rushing to eat while you’re on the go is a big reason
people feel unsatisfied with their health by the end of the day. So start
giving yourself a little time, let your food settle, and stop stuffing your
face!
I’m sure you are
aware that rushing your food does not give your tummy time to register
that it
physically is replete.
3. Drop the Dairy and Wheat
There’s some controversy over these two things, but
there’s no denying that both wheat and dairy are highly processed. Try going
wheat and dairy free for a day, and you’ll probably find
yourself feeling a whole lot lighter.
I’m on the side of controversy
here, but agree that the adult body is not designed to absorb
so much milk.
However it is being proved (at long last) that butter is far better for your
body
than the chemically manufactured margarine and that we benefit from
natural active yoghurt but not the sugar heavy flavoured yoghurts. Wheat has
been a staple for millennia however there is modern wheat and ancient wheat and
the current fad regarding gluten – try for a time and judge for yourself as
your body changes constantly.
4. Go Vegan for a Day
Want to step it up a notch? Try going meat-free for a day. It doesn’t mean you have to go all-out vegan, but even just reducing your meat intake can give your metabolism a bit of a break
and make you feel lighter. Just make sure
you replace it with natural source of protein, not carbs!
Apparently it is
healthier to balance meat and vegetable proteins also I’ve read that we eat
far
too much meat. I‘ve found to reduce it in recipes does not detract from the taste
–
just your expectations of an affluent society.
5. Eat More Fruits and Veggies
If you don’t want to give up the meat, that’s fine. Just try to get more fruits and veggies throughout
5. Eat More Fruits and Veggies
If you don’t want to give up the meat, that’s fine. Just try to get more fruits and veggies throughout
the day, rather than filling up on carbs. This
always makes me feel a whole lot better by the end
of the day. Many people have not eaten fruit for years
as modern fruit has an alarming increase
of sugar and are giants in relation to
the fruit of decades ago.
6. Go for an Early Run
Of all the things you can do to feel healthier and lighter, starting your day with some intense exercise is the way to do it. Hit the ground running in the morning with a jog, a bike ride, or even some jump rope. Your whole day will feel better for it.

Intense exercise is
not an option for many and I’ve read that mixing fast with slow is far more effective
and walking 100 then running/jogging/speed walking 100 is quite a work out.
7. Enjoy Some Afternoon Yoga
Yoga’s another fantastic way to feel healthier, fitter, and lighter. Try fitting in a yoga routine right
after work. It will help you de-stress after a
busy day, and that means less overeating and snacking
at night. I couldn’t agree more.
8. Drink More Water
Ditch the soda and juice, and increase your daily water intake. Not only will you feel lighter,
8. Drink More Water
Ditch the soda and juice, and increase your daily water intake. Not only will you feel lighter,
you’ll also boost your metabolism and
burn some more calories while you’re at it –
and without taking in the unwanted
sugar and artificial sweeteners.
Juiceers strip
fruit and vegetables of their fibre content which is not an empty product but
essential
in the digestion of that fruit also your body is the best juicer
nature has created. Have you ever seen what soda particularly coca cola can do
the grease on a car engine or the build up of lime scale etc?
9. Don’t Touch the Salt Shaker
Sodium is the number one ingredient to make you feel
bloated, and a bloated stomach is not
how you want to end your day. Keep
high-sodium foods to a minimum (soy sauce is a great example), and don’t add
any salt to your meals throughout the day.
Curiously, over
time and without intent I may not have
salt or very little
and have been
prescribed common salt tablets twice a day!
10. Sweat It Out
Whether it’s a morning run, a little yoga, or a
full-blown weight-lifting routine, working up a good sweat will make you feel
ten times lighter and healthier by day’s end. And you’ll have a real impact on
your fat-burning efforts with this one!
