Most of us have something we are looking forward to this summer . It may be a wedding , a class reunion or a family vacation . No matter the event , we all want to look out best .
Although you may have known this was coming for quite some time , but may not have had the motivation to get started on your weight loss or health goals . While you don't have time to make drastic changes , you can make a few changes that can improve how you look , feel and get yourself started on the right path.
However , you should avoid the temptation to go on a crash diet or follow a fad plan . These can create health problems ; specifically they can create heart problems and other issues .
Here are a few tips to help you look and feel your best for the upcoming event in a healthful way .
1 . Drink plenty of water :
Staying properly hydrated not only keeps your metabolism working properly . it also helps the appearance of your skin and reduces puffiness and swelling . Remove sodas , diet soda , fruit drinks from your diet and replace them with water .
2 . Snack smart :
Snacks consisting of nuts , seeds , or water-rich fruits and vegetables such as watermelons or cucumbers . Avoid snacks with preservatives and artificial sweeteners , as these can cause bloating /
3 . Eat small amounts :
Eat smaller potions of food ever few hours instead of three larger meals . Although high-fiber foods such as beans and cruciferous vegetables are great for your overall health , you may ant to avoid them a day or two before the big event , to reduce bloating .
Words of Wisdom :
Every man is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day; wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit.
The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.
If wisdom and diamonds grew on the same tree we could soon tell how much men loved wisdom.
Life is one long experiment in learning. Who can be perfect all the time? Sometimes I feel half-wise, sometimes half-stupid.
Mothers, teach your children this. Teach your children that Wisdom is everywhere. In pieces. Some of the Wisdom is in the trees, some of the Wisdom is with the animals. Some of the Wisdom is with the planets and the stars and the moons and the sun. Some of the Wisdom flows with the waters. Some of the Wisdom was with our ancestors. Some of the Wisdom is in our minds.

It do my heart good to see your daddy and mama walking or jogging with you and Chris and Anita with their bunch along with you . Yes , you are making a 6 pack and Man will have a 6 pack like Gil as he grows , and yes Man 6 pack look like mine at the moment (laughing my butt off).
