TOP TIPS FOR A NEW BEGINNING

Feeling lethargic? For many people the overindulgences of Christmas & New Year will have resulted in tiredness, stress & a weight gain. It's important now to get your body working well at digesting food, assimilating nutrients & evacuating waste efficiently. So here is my advice:
1. Never skip breakfast - your body needs refuelling after sleeping.
2. Ditch the junk - clear out all the leftover 'Christmas' food.
3. Get cooking with fresh ingredients for optimum nutritional intake.
4. Keep a bowl of homemade vegetable soup in the fridge - warming & healthy.
5. Eat 'healthy' snacks to keep blood sugar levels stable between meals.
6. Go brown - bread, rice, pasta as they help you 'feel full' for longer.
7. Have one 'raw' meal a day to ensure absorption of high nutrient levels.
8. Give your liver a break - stop or severely limit your alcohol consumption.
9. Aim to drink 1.5 litres of water per day.
10. Write it all down - studies show that keeping a diary of all you eat & drink gives great results with weight loss.

Happy New Year & Happy Eating!
