Get a summer bikini body || Healthy diet tips

Me in a greek beach swimming

When spring comes, it's that time of the year when girls start freaking out about summer: we get worried about those winter/christmas/easter weight we put on and how we will look at the beach. But don't worry, i am here to help you get that bikini body you always dream of. 

First of all, you don't need to count calories one by one, but you need to be careful with some foods that are very high in calories: chips, pizzas, cakes and white bread. Try to consume the majority of calories before 3-4pm, so you can keep your dinner lighter. Instead of junk food, eat foods high in protein and fiber and vitamins: vegetables, fruits, black beans, fish, brown rice, oats etc. It depends on whether you are vegan or not, for you to find the perfect plan for your body to lose weight but also stay healthy without losing the important nutrition it needs.

Do not let those juices trick you: the majority of the juice that you buy in super markets they are most likely to contain a big load of sugar and fats. A better and easier way to drink something tasty full of energy that can fill your stomach too but also be healthy, is to make your own juice: mix up your favorite fruits in a blender and have your own homemade healthy juice every day. It's even better to eat the fruit than drink it. When you cut a fruit and then blend it, it is possible that it can lose some of its vitamins. Of course, it's still a healthy option, but if you can have the fruit itself, why not? Also, mixing many fruits to create your own juice or smoothie, can make you lose control of the amount of fruits you consume: people tend to put in the blender twice the amount of fruits of what they would consume if they just ate the fruits. So, eating the fruit will give you the best vitamins and it will make you feel full instantly.

Water, water, water! I know, you hear it every day, but have you really paid attention to that? Even keeping the same eating habits and just increase your daily water intake will make a huge difference in your weight loss journey, but also to the health of your body and skins in general. Drink a big glass of water the minute you wake up and, believe me, your body will thank you later. Ditch all the sodas and carbonated drinks that can make you feel bloated, and trade it with a good green tea. Tea helps body to burn fat as fuel and gives you energy together with the antioxidants that are good for body's health. 

My new sports equipment

Exercise is not gonna help if you do not follow a healthy diet and lifestyle, but it is an important factor that can help you lose weight and keep your body fit. I know that many of you may be bored and uninspired to work out, i feel you. You don't need to hit the gym. You can go for walking or jogging instead to the nearest park now that the weather starts to become warmer: it will save you money and it's a lot more entertaining and healthy to go for a walk in nature breathing the fresh air, than inside of a building filled with everyone's sweat and bad breath. If you still find it boring, you can choose something that you like and it will make you get that but of the bed and move: you can try dancing, alone home or take some lessons, swimming and many more hobbies.

Last but surely not list, inspiration is for me the most important thing. Look for fitness photos, your favorite tumblr girls with swimsuits, instagram profiles that inspire you to get the bikini body you always wanted and fitness apps that can get you moving and help you count your work out routines, your water intake etc. Something i also find helpful, is shopping sporty clothes: by buying a really nice sports bra and cute leggings you will want to wear them instantly and start exercising.

But remember, starving yourself is not a solution. It's not healthy for your body, your skin, your hair and nails, and in the end of the day you won't look the way you want: you won't be fit and healthy and it won't last long. So be the best version of you because if you don't do it now, then when? ♥♥♥

Spring Break Activities ♥

Spring is officially here! The smell of the flowers starts to touch your nose and the sun becomes more and more present. You have that feeling of freedom, like the summer is too close you can almost touch it, and you have free time from school, university or other activities. But how can you spend your free time? Well, that's why i'm here for!

Spring is all about flowers and nature.. Wear your comfy shoes and take a walk around, explore a forest, wander around a garden, or whatever is colorful, fun, and reminds you of spring. Walking is also good for you, because summer is loading, and we all want a nice bikini body to hit the beach. But we also all have eaten tones of food and sweets in winter and we haven't yet lose all those christmas bellies. So, spring is a great season to start working out since the weather is nice and warm, most of the time. Take your snap-back, your sunscreen and start walking or jogging. 

Except for exercising, or taking walks and exploring the nature, when the weather starts to get warmer, it is always a cool idea to hit the beach. Although it is spring, April can be a little chilly to go

swimming, so you can just lay around the beach, enjoy the sunshine, relax and read your favorite book, or you can go with your friends later in the evening, light a fire and have fun ♥ For those of you who are more daring and would like to try get into the water, you can experiment with some watersports that can be extremely fun.

With spring, here come the strawberries ♥
This season of the year has some of the tastiest fruits: strawberries, apricots, pineapples, mango and tangerines are only some of them. This is a good opportunity to start cleaning your diet and eating healthier. This way you will not only feel better, but also get one step closer to your summer body goal ;)

Although i never stopped eating ice-creams and frozen yogurts (even in winter i really cannot stop, i'm obsessed!), you can now start experimenting with different recipes for healthier snacks: you can make natural ice-cream out of strawberries or your fav fruit, eat low fat frozen yogurt with fruits etc.

Last but surely not least, every season has its fashion. When you feel the warm springy air you know it is time to start putting away the heavy coats and the winter clothes, and start taking out the cute, pink and floral outfits. Spring is the best season to combine all the kind of outfits: skirt with boots, jeans with sandals, everything is allowed. So start wearing those beautiful colorful dresses, and don't forget the headbands: flower and hippie headbands are a must the last years!

But why stop on your outfit and not redecorate your room? It's this time of the year that you throw away all the dark winter color sheets and pillows, the snowy decorations and give your room a fresh spring air. Since spring is all about flowers, floral or polka dots light color sheets will give a sweeter sense in your room. The dark colors will be replaced by lighter pink, purple, blue and my personal fav mint green color.

Those were some ideas to inspire you to do something creative with your free time and make you feel the spring vibes.
But if you have the time and the money, why not travel? Spring break vacation can be so much fun: roadtrips with friends or family, go to an island, or go camping. 

So you wanna know what i'm gonna do for spring break? I'm gonna give you this hint: fairytales aren't just for little kids ♥
