7 Ways to Stop Temptation From Ruining Your Plans for a Summer Slim Down

Here at the New You Plan HQ, we’ve found June to be a bit of a rollercoaster. First, the sunshine coaxed us out of our winter clothes and inspired us to start to spend more time outside. Only to then force us back into our coats and boots-well ok, wellies. As the cold and rain returned, thankfully that is all behind us and we are starting to enjoy the feel of summer.

If you had planned a summer slim down (I think that’s everyone’s plan) then don’t worry. You still have plenty of time, the weather is now on our side and it is easier than ever to get outside, breathe in the fresh air and soak up the summer sun.

We understand that the run-up to summer can be difficult. Whilst everyone is getting ready for the hot weather, it can be easy to get swept away in the energy of it all. It can be easy to be tempted by ice-filled drinks and BBQ food. Why start now, when you would just fall off the wagon at the first hurdle?

Relax! You don’t need to worry. If you still want to slim down for the summer, you can. Here at the New You Plan, we have some great tools available to help you get through those tricky days and move you along your weight loss journey as smoothly as possible.

 

Whatever stage you’re at in your weight loss journey, now is the time to re-evaluate and put your plans into action.

And if you’re worried about struggling and about temptations, which can come in any shape or form, here are our 7 tips for working through and dealing with those difficult times

  1. For instant support, reach out on our Secret Slimmer’s Facebook page. It is an amazing community and the members always know the right things to say.
  2. Text or call a loved one, friend or family member. Even if you don’t explain your situation, just having a normal conversation will distract you.
  3. Grab a pen and paper and write down how you’re feeling. This will help you validate your emotions which you can then symbolically put aside, and deal with when you are in a better frame of mind.
  4. Write a ‘for’ and ‘against’ list. In the ‘for’ section you can write all the reasons why you feel you need to have a blip. In the ‘against’ list write down all the feelings you will have and consequences there will be from having a blip. Comparing the two should steer you in the right direction.
  5. Meditate to soothe your mind to better cope with your struggles.
  6. Read a book or listen to an audiobook. This is an excellent distraction. Take yourself to another world (where there isn’t talk of food-preferably).
  7. If you have a dog, take it for a walk. They also make great confidants and never judge!

Well, hopefully, we’ve reassured you that there is nothing to hold you back from achieving a slimmer new you for the summer. Temptations have nothing on you. You are strong, you have the tools, you can do it!

Cells: The Building Blocks of Life

By Chamseddine
Cells: The Building Blocks of Life The human body contains millions of cells that rely on healthy nutrition like proteins, vitamins and minerals. While the body can create some of these nutrients, it also requires essential vitamins and minerals from food sources. Every living organism depends on its cells to function normally. Often referred to as “the building blocks of life,” cells are the biological, structural and functional units that carry out tasks in an organism. A collection of cells working together is called a tissue, while a series of tissues performing organized functions are called organs. The human body contains trillions of cells, all with varying tasks that help support bodily organs; these include skin cells, nerve cells, blood cells, barrier function cells (supporting the lungs, gut) and more. Cells rely on good nutrition for energy production and to prevent oxidative damage. The anatomy of a cell Cells in the human body are so tiny that they are invisible to th...
