It's Bikini Season Ladies, and You Know What That Means....
We all know summer is a season filled with delicious BBQ's, homemade desserts, dozens of Starbucks coffees, and of course, bikinis. The biggest problem I find myself having is knowing when to eat, what to eat, and what exercises to do in order to still look presentable in that itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini.
I've tried all the abdominal exercises you can think of and yet, no six pack. Unlike models such as Gisele (who are on a whole other fitness level then the rest of the world), women don't always have the time to spend 3 hours with their personal trainer everyday. We wish we could to get Gisele's killer bod, but the fact of the matter is we just don't have the time. But before you give up all hope and go grab the tub of Rocky Road, hear me out.
20 minutes of cardio a day is all you need! Run on the treadmill (track, road, etc.), bike, row, or even jump rope for a half and hour and you'll have burned over 200 calories. Add the ab workout below and you'll have done a very fulfilling workout for the day. Now, about that whole but-I-can't-stop-eating-everything-in-sight thing...me either. BUT if you trade an apple and peanut butter for those Oreos and peanut butter or some almonds or a cheese stick instead of chips, you have complete permission to snack all day long. Apples are incredibly filling and almonds are a great source of protein. The point is, while being delicious they are also nutritious and they both keep you full for awhile. Another thing to remember is not to eat while bored. Personally this is my biggest issue. Grab a glass of water, drink it, and wait 15-20 minutes. If you're still hungry, grab a light snack, if not, then you're golden. Many times our minds can mistake hunger for thirst if we're bored so don't go directly to the kitchen cabinet! Keep this is mind and by your next vacation you will be able to feel sexy and confident in that adorable new bikini!

The Not-so-Healthy Detoxes
Spring has finally sprung which means more and more students are outside enjoying the weather. Most universities around this time also have their infamous Spring Weekends, Spring Concerts, etc. and with these come an abundance of alcohol and greasy food on the go.
Currently trending are the ever popular "juice diets" and it appears almost every girl is talking about them. It seems simple, binge on alcohol and junk food for a weekend and then right after that weekend (and right before summer) cleanse your body of all the toxins? Right? Wrong. These diets claim to flush the body of toxins, curing everything from nausea and headaches to insomnia and yeast infections. However, with the recent spike in popularity, more and more health professionals are seeing an abundance of malnourished and run-down young women, a group of girls Marie Claire has deemed "juicerexics".
Ladies, I know it seems intriguing because of the speedy weight loss and the celebrity sponsors that have hopped on the band wagon, but be careful. Carefully research the diet before you begin and even consult with your doctor to decide if it's even necessary. We at G2 Organics are always up for the latest trend in weight loss and workouts however we make sure to keep it safe. An extra half hour at the gym could be much more beneficial than becoming a juicerexic!
