June is not the month to start your summer workout, nor is it the time to say “Oh I’ll never be able to look good in a bathing suit, who am I kidding”.¬† Guess what, you can look good and all it takes is some hard work and dedication, but with a good diet and an exercise routine you have the time to get your body in bathing suit shape.

How is that possible you ask?  If you start the week of March 23^rd you have exactly 10 weeks until Memorial Day (the unofficial start of summer). To get started you need to follow a few tips:

• 1. Cut your calories down to around 1500 a day –
  
• 2. Eat many times a day – You need to eat small meals about 6 to 8 times a day. This way you won’t be hungry and it keeps your body from feeling like you’re starving.
• 3. Exercise an hour a day five times a week – For weight loss; you’ll need to do exercise around an hour. Half hour for maintenance.
• 4. Mix up your exercise – Change it up from aerobic to circuit training. Making muscle forces your body to burn fat.
• 5. Cut out foolish calories - Stop drinking calories like juices, shakes, beer and alcohol. If you can stick to water you will have more calories to consume by way of food.
• 6. Stop eating 3 hours before bed -The best way to burn calories is in your sleep and if you are still digesting, you’re not working your body correctly.

If you decide to take this task on now, you’ll see the results and feel great this summer. Good luck to you.
