And with more daylight comes an interest in eating lighter. During the winter we've been trying to keep warm but, as daylight temperatures increase, we're encouraged to eat foods at cooler temperatures. Lighter food = lower calories. Think salads, fresh-pressed fruit and vegetable juices, raw veggie crudités, fruit salads, and lean meats, grilled on the BBQ.
Enter the Detox Diet, a wonderful way to begin your 90-Day program. As Roni DeLuz, author of 21 Pounds in 21 Days, and founder of Martha's Vineyard Holistic Retreat, says in her book, "Over time, toxic elements accumulate in our cells, gunk up our organs, erode our quality of life, and cause many of the low-grade discomforts that are all too familiar to many of us -- allergies, fatigue, heartburn, headaches, and a loss of energy. Toxins make us more susceptible to serious chronic diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes. In fact, these poisons foul up the delicate inner workings of many people's bodies so much that they gain unwanted weight and it becomes nearly impossible for them to slim down. Many overweight people know from experience that weight loss is often about a lot more than eating the right foods and counting calories."
So Step 1 of our Body Transformation program is a detox; maybe not 21 days, but 7 days for sure. A chance to give our digestion system a much-deserved rest, and an opportunity to flood our system with health-enhancing nutrients that scrub our arteries and our cells clean!
