How to get rid of cellulite!

1.Drink plenty of water. This may sound too simple...but its so important!! Wake up and drink one or two glasses of pure water with lemon. This means drinking about 16 ounces of water at room temperature or, if you prefer, you can drink warm water. In total, try drinking eight glasses of bottled water each day, and include herbal teas like dandelion, red clover, burdock, or ginger.

2.Add freshly squeezed lemon juice. Lemon juice helps you eliminate more toxins on a daily

3.Boost your fiber intake.

4.Drink juices every day. Try the green ones like kale, cucumber, and add apple, and ginger! It can be a very healthy way to keep your body free of cellulite and just plain healthy.


5.Eat lots of vegetables. Try adding a daily serving of fresh salads composed of healthy vegetables with healthy dressing.


6.Choose healthy oils. Stay away from processed heated oils like like soy, corn, and canola. Reach instead for olive and nut oils for cooking and to sprinkle on foods. (this does not mean its okay to fry your foods in olive oil)

7.Perform a liver cleanse. The liver is a primary organ responsible for cleansing wastes from the body. It is considered a fat destroyer in the body. The liver makes sure that your body fluids are helping your body achieve optimal performance. Don’t clog the liver or your pipes with fat. Keep them working smoothly and cleanly by doing a regular liver cleanse. Find a Liver Cleanse in your local Vitamin Shoppe!


8.Keep your system regular. Make sure you have one to two bowel movements every day. Those of you on the Body By Vi Challenge can attest to this...after your first shake you felt your bowels move ans thought something was wrong!  Keep healthy and keep the pipes clean!

9.Get on a daily exercise routine. Of course I recommend zumba to get you moving!!!

10. Exfoliate your skin!! Exfoliating away dry skin helps to prevent cellulite formation  and stimulating skin renewal.

 The moral of this story....changing your lifestyle..eat healthy and keep your body active and start eliminating cellulite today
