Spring has Sprung!

Its official Charleston...spring has sprung!! And something that Charlestonians love is the beach. Recently I have noticed a lot of people have said they want to either lose weight or tone their body for beach season. Now I'm not a gym guru but I do frequent the gym mainly to keep my body toned since I am an aspiring model. So with the recent posts that I have seen lately I came up with what I think are the 3 most important things that you can do to lose weight or tone.

1. Drink water!
    Yes we love soda an but lets be honest..its a lot of empty calories. Oh and juice is good too, but the next time you drink juice take a look at the sugar and calorie content. Its not worth it. Water is so much more refreshing. It'll leave your skin glowing and it keeps your insides clean too. It also amazing the couple of pounds you can shed just by drinking water daily. Water...its just plain good for you!

2. Exercise daily!
    Now I understand not everybody likes the gym, but come on there is no excuse for being lazy, Get up and do something...anything. Walk around your neighborhood. There are plenty of abs exercises that you can do at home. There are times when I don't go to the gym but to get at least a mini workout in I do a kettlebell workout, squats, planks, and ab exercises. Also working out is a good feeling of accomplishment!

3. Be consistent!
    Be consistent with drinking water and exercising. You can just do it once a week or whenever you feel like it and expect results. Do it everyday and you will see results!!
