hi anon i found this for you♥♥
If you weigh less than 150 pounds and are in good health, squeeze half a fresh lemon (about one ounce) in 8 to 12 ounces of filtered water and drink it first thing in the morning for the best cleansing benefits. If this is too strong, dilute it to taste.
If you weigh over 150 pounds, you could drink the same amount of lemon water twice a day. Or you could squeeze a whole lemon (two ounces) into 24 to 32 ounces of clean water and drink this throughout the morning.
Our bodies can only metabolize about 12 ounces of water at a time. Thus, if you are drinking more than 12 ounces of lemon water, you would want to spread it out over a period of a few hours. You will still get most of the enzymatic properties of the lemon water if it is stored in a sealed container, preferably glass or stainless steel, and kept cold.
If you drink more than the recommended amount above, it is best to add it gradually over time since the lemon juice will accelerate body detoxification.
Too much lemon water too quickly can cause uncomfortable detoxification symptoms such as headaches, bowel changes, or fatigue.
It is also best to drink lemon water about 30 minutes before a meal to help your body get the most energy and nutrients from the food you eat.

- Wake up and open your curtains. Your windows too.
- Drink some tea or coffee, whatever pleases you. Notice every sip.
- Have some fresh fruit and finish breakfast feeling full.
- Stand outside and feel the air. Cool or warm, it will make you feel real.
- Get some exercise. Yoga to soothe, running to breathe, lifting for strength.
- Take care of your body. Have a nice shower and pamper as much as you want afterward.
- If you’re going to work, remember you have the chance to make anyone’s day or to ruin it. Act accordingly.
- Weed out the bad language. It’s only creating tension in your body and mind. Kind words are infinitely more appreciated.
- Take some time each day to improve your mind. Keep reading that great book. Listen to an incredible piece of music. Practice an instrument or a skill. The progress is its own reward.
- Pictures will help you remember how wonderful life is. But spend less time on your phone and more time seeing the world face to face.
- Go to sleep knowing that you have done well. Tomorrow is there with room to become even better.
-Notes to myself on how to become a better person this summer.

I am STRONG.
I am SMART.
I am HARDWORKING.
I am CAPABLE.
I am WORTHY.
I will SUCCEED.
Let's get this straight, girls:
- Cardio: Required for fat loss. HIIT is said to be the most effective cardio for fat loss.
- Strength/Weight training: Required for toning and definition. You won’t get abs or lean-looking legs without strong muscles. Lift heavy.
- Good nutrition: Required for all of the above. Always remember, 70% diet, 30% exercise. Keep your intake in check.
- The “Beach Body” requires all three of these elements. No matter how much cardio you do, if you eat like shit and do no strength work, you will not get the toned, lean, slim body you are after. If you eat fantastically, but do zero exercise, your body won’t really do an awful lot of changing.
- It’s not easy, but it’s worth it:
