It’s the start of a new year and many people choose to turn over a fresh leaf by starting a detox diet, but it can be confusing as to how you can actually get the ball rolling and put your plan into action.
Firstly you must address your current lifestyle – this includes a whole range of things such as how much exercise you do, how much alcohol you drink, what sort of diet you have, what sort of food you eat and other such things.
Once you have the answers to these lifestyle questions you can look at where you need to change, as a basic guide you should do the following –
• Cut out the alcohol – this is a sure fire way to cleanse your body as well as lose weight, many people don’t realise how much alcohol they actually drink during the course of a week, a glass of wine with tea every night easily mounts up.
• Join the gym – by joining a gym you can increase the amount of exercise you do – you don’t have to go every day, why not try 3 days of the week, start off gently with just half an hour and build it up as your progress.
• Eat healthy – change your diet to cut out greasy and fatty foods, still allow yourself a treat but by cutting out heavy meals you will feel better as well as lose weight. Eating little and often is the best way to eat.
