You are unique and so is your body! Before starting any new health routine, always be sure to talk with your doctor to make sure it is right for your needs.
No matter when your next beach vacation is, you can always be beach ready by continuing to focus on your health and wellness year round. But if you are packing a swimsuit for the next adventure, here are some things to keep in mind to ensure you will feel your very best.

Switch Up Your Workouts
Your body gets used to doing the same types of exercise on repeat. So if you’re used to lifting weights, shake things up by throwing in a cardio session. Perhaps try yoga or boxing. Keep your body from getting into a rut by keeping it guessing!
Skip the Salt
Salt is an important part of a healthy diet and enables us to perform critical bodily functions. However, many of us consume far more than we need which causes us to retain water all over our body. While we may not realize we are retaining water, it can contribute to looking a little puffier. As always, consult your doctor about whether it would benefit you to reduce sodium in your diet to see if your body will let go of some unnecessary water.
Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate
While eating less sodium is important, it is also important to make sure you drinking enough water and staying hydrated. Water flushes toxins and waste out of our bodies, while also keeping all of the body’s systems and organs supported and operating better, reducing stress on them. This is how drinking enough water can actually help you lose weight. Again, talk with your doctor about what the right amount of water is for you to ensure hydration and proper electrolyte balance.
Refine Your Diet
Whether a beach destination is in your near or distant future, the best way to get yourself ready is to refine your diet. While your doctor will be able to tell you what will best meet your health needs, for many, focusing on a balance of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, healthy fats and lean meats will help get you feeling energized and confident.
Shine from the Inside Out
No matter where you are in your health journey, the most important part of being swimsuit ready is loving yourself inside and out, just as you are in this moment. Self-acceptance and gratitude for where you are and how far you’ve come will allow you to be fully present and truly enjoy the gift of life, wherever you are. Don’t wait until you meet your goals to be happy – embrace the journey and choose happiness today!
