I know how you feel. I spend many hours on Skype with clients and competitors getting ready for a show or getting ready for a photo shoot after a show and a binge fest. So I am telling you the same thing I told them.

You need to get on this right now! We need to get you some hacks that break through the your metabolic firewall and signal your cells to let go of the excess fluid that is wreaking havoc on your hard driving sexiness!

1. SWEAT it OUT

A great way if you are healthy, are not on medication and have your healthy doctor’s consent, get to a sauna, steam bath or Jacuzzi hot tub, or a hot steamy bath at home. The max time to stay in a sauna or hot tub is 15 minutes at a time. Take 15-minute breaks in between sessions with a max total time of 30 minutes. Then you must drink distilled, bottled or filtered water to rehydrate with the proper fluids.

2. MOVE IT to LOSE IT

Get your sneakers on and beat a fast path to the gym, to the track, get your weights out of storage, throw those clothes off your bike, treadmill or elliptical you have in your room, turn on YouTube and get your cardio dance groove on or turn up the heat in your bedroom and have a DIY hot yoga workout. It really doesn’t matter what you do, just find an activity that makes you want to move for thirty minutes or more and get to it. Moving will increase your metabolic rate, increase circulation and signal your endocrine system to begin stabilizing your water levels. You will be making a trail to the potty before you know it. YES!
