Are you dreading shedding that winter garb? You know, for fear of showing off some hidden flab that you’ve been secretly covering up.

Do lyrical tunes of itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polka dot bikinis, haunt you in your sleep?

Has your new year’s resolution to lose a few pounds gone flop? Have no fear; there is still hope!

How to lose 10-15 lbs before June/July!

1) Find your satisfaction in the Lord.

2) Eat only when you are hungry and stop eating when you are full.

Listen to your body. Do you have those growling, burning hunger pains? (GBS= Growling Belly Syndrome) No? Then it is probably not time to eat anything (unless you have a blood sugar issue or other medical condition). Find something else to do if you see that you tend to eat when you are board.

3) Go for a 1-2 mile brisk walk 5 times a week.

4) Drink 8-10 glasses of water during the day.

5) Avoid sugar! If you can’t cut it out completely, just 1/2 it.

6) Eat more fruits (low in sugar like berries/apples), veggies, nuts and legumes. Add fiber and protein to your diet.

7) Avoid anything white (white bread, pasta, rice, etc).

8) Stop eating 3 hours before you go to bed.

Who looks this good when they sleep?

I mean, besides me…. HA, NOT!

Not with the goal of feeling starved – to – death, but you should feel slightly hungry. When you’re trying to lose weight, slipping into bed at night feeling slightly hungry is actually a good thing. It’s your body telling you that what you did that day is working — you’re losing body fat. If you don’t feel this way, you’re probably not losing fat.

9) Write down what you eat.

10) Eat 5-6 smaller meals, instead of 3 large ones.

Here’s an eating schedule you can adopt:

1. 7:00 a.m. – Eat breakfast
2. 10:00 a.m. – Eat a light snack
3. 12:00 p.m. – Eat lunch
4. 4:00 p.m. – Eat a another snack
5. 7:00 p.m. – Eat a small dinner with a treat

Sound doable? Get movin’, girlfriend!
