all the fun without the fat!
Heading south for some fun in the sun? You can thoroughly enjoy your vacation vibe and return home without any “extra luggage” around your waist. Here are my four proven tips to staying lean on vacation – so you can eat, drink and keep fit while you frolic in the sun!
Tip #1 - Rethink Your Drink
Did you know a classic Piña Colada or frozen Margarita can pack a whopping 650 calories? Just four of these hefty cocktails can rack up your entire day’s calorie quota, and that’s before you’ve even had a single bite to eat! So, let’s swap those heavy hitters for something just as delightful but much kinder to your waistline. Imagine a sparkling spritzer with a splash of fresh pineapple juice and a dash of rum, or coconut water jazzed up with lime and a touch of tequila, each of these delicious drinks barely scratches the 100-calorie mark. These smart sips let you savor the tropical goodness without the sugar overload, helping to keep you lean.
Tip #2 – Have More Fun to Burn More Fat
Make fun physical activities a part of your daily routine to boost your calorie burn and help you stay lean. Tired of lying on the chaise lounge? Grab a snorkel, and wade into the ocean to explore the colorful underwater world. Finished a chapter of your great book? Celebrate with a plunge into the pool to splash around or even swim a few lengths. Bloated from the buffet? Grab your camera and take a scenic hike to discover the area’s beauty and snap photos of the local plants and wildlife. These physical activities make your vacation way more fun while burning off those extra calories at the same time.
Tip #3 - Enjoy the Local Flavors Smartly
Vacation is a time to savor the local cuisine, and a few smart choices can help you enjoy every bite without worrying about weight gain. For example, skip the high-calorie sides like French fries, pasta, and bread opting instead for salad or grilled veggies. Scan the menu for dishes that are grilled, baked, or steamed. Pick lean proteins and fresh vegetables to fill your plate. That way you can experience the rich, authentic flavors while keeping those calories in check.
Tip #4 - Embrace the Bliss of Beach Walking
Feel the sublime joy of the sun warming your back, sand squishing between your toes, and the gentle surf caressing your legs as you breathe in the lush, tropical breeze. The soothing sound of the surf creates a perfect backdrop for a serene yet effective workout. An hour’s walk along the beach in the morning, and another one at sunset, isn’t just a pleasure; it’s a powerful way to stay lean. This delightful daily routine can burn up to 500 calories while you enjoy the deeply refreshing tranquility of nature.
