25 Flat Belly Foods

November 8, 2013 By LoveSurf

1. EVOO – (extra virgin olive oil) A-monounsaturated fat that burns calories and fat. This oil also helps with cholesterol levels. A great belly slimmer. 2. Nonfat Greek Yogurt – Greek yogurt has more protein than regular yogurt which keeps you fuller longer. It also contains good bacteria (probiotics) that works to reduce the bad bacteria in the intestines that is responsible for belly bloating. 3. Mushrooms – With the lack of vitamin D, it has been linked to higher levels of belly fat. Mushrooms are the only natural plant source of Vitamin D. Mushrooms are a fabulous way to cut carbs too. 4. Skim Milk – Milk is the perfect combination of protein and carbs to keep you feeling full, especially after a workout. It also helps to build muscle and lose fat.

Tips for a Healthier Fourth of July

July 2, 2013 By LoveSurf

Holidays are for celebrating and are meant to be enjoyed, but you don’t have to sacrifice your health or beach body every time you attend a BBQ. These 6 BBQ survival tips can help keep your health and fitness goals on track. 6 Healthy Eating Tips For Your 4th of July BBQ 1. Use small plates Research clearly shows that people who choose smaller plates and utensils eat less without even noticing it. Try borrowing a plate from the kids table or the dessert tray. 2. Eat slowly and mindfully People who eat more slowly eat fewer calories over the course of a meal. BBQs are a perfect opportunity to pace yourself as you mix and mingle with friends and family. 3. Eat healthiest foods first If you are eating slowly and off small plates, you may as well fill up on the healthiest stuff first. Salads are a great place to start. 4. Skip the chips, crackers and bread Refined carbohydrates are the worst things you can eat because they offer little satisfaction, loads of calories and dangerous insulin spikes. BBQs are filled with wonderful food, so do yourself a favor and save your calories for the really good stuff. 5. Keep…

Beach Life: Food

May 9, 2013 By LoveSurf

One thing that almost every beach activity has in common is great food!  Food and beaches go hand-in-hand; hardly any of us venture out to the shore without something to snack on, and barbecues or picnics are the order of the day whenever friends gather at the beach. However, this leads to several pitfalls to be avoided.  Most beach snack food is not exactly low-cal or healthy, and the vendors along the shore do not help with their hot dogs, pizza and cotton candy.  Depending on where you visit the beach, you may be surrounded by fattening temptation.  However, you want to look great in your new LoveSurf swimsuit, so what’s a beachgoer to do?  Here are some tips to help you eat healthy at the beach and stay in shape so that you can enjoy your new LoveSurf swimwear! 1)     Bring healthy snacks.  You know the old dieting rule that says, “You won’t eat it if you don’t have it”?  Well, the same thing can be said for healthy snacks—you will not eat them if they are not available.  Instead, you will get hungry and turn to fattening treats to try to fill up!  The best way to ensure…

Tips for a Healthy Thanksgiving

November 27, 2012 By LoveSurf

1. Use a Smaller Plate At big meals, like Thanksgiving, it’s very difficult to avoid the temptation to fill your plate to capacity with delectable goodies! Instead of trying to make your portions smaller, just make your plate smaller! Simply filling up a smaller plate instead of the average sized dinner plate can cut up to 500 calories out of your meal!  2. Drink Water As you enjoy the your crisp green beans and succulent sweet potatoes, be conscious of what you’re drinking. Limit yourself to one beverage of your choice, and then switch to water. Making sure that you stay hydrated throughout the day can help your brain to differentiate between actual hunger and dehydration. Often, many people confuse dehydration with hunger, and eat more without understanding why the feeling they are experiencing won’t go away! 3. Put Down the Fork!  I know that I personally struggle with this one. I have a nasty habit of preparing my next bite while I’m still chewing my last one! If you have your mouth full of tangy-sweet cranberry sauce covered turkey, put your knife and fork down. Wait to prepare your next bite until you’ve finished the last one. This will…
