But how can you enjoy your vacation without gaining weight? In this blog, we give you five practical tips to enjoy all the beauty that summer has to offer, without the scales protesting.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24pt;\">1. Keep moving<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">It is tempting to enjoy the sun and laze around on the beach or by the pool during the summer months. Instead, keep moving! Not only healthy, but also great fun. Take a walk on the beach, play a game of volleyball or rent a bike to explore the area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24pt;\">2. Choose healthy options<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">On holiday or during a day out, you can easily be tempted to eat unhealthy food. Therefore, consciously choose healthy options, such as salads, fish and grilled vegetables and avoid fatty things like cream sauces. Avoid fast food and choose local specialties with fresh ingredients. This way you can enjoy the local food without gaining weight. Extra tip: check the menu in advance, so you have time to think about your choice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24pt;\">3. Hydrate<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Make sure you drink plenty of water during the summer months. Not only is this important for staying hydrated, it can also help prevent overeating \u2013 and drinking. Always take a bottle of water with you when you go out, so you always have something to drink on hand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24pt;\">4. Avoid alcohol<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Alcohol is not only unhealthy, it also contains a lot of calories. Moreover, alcohol blurs your boundaries and before you know it, the chips are on the table. Therefore, avoid excessive alcohol consumption, even during the summer months. Instead, choose non-alcoholic drinks, such as water with mint and lemon. Do you still fancy a nice glass of wine or a refreshing gin and tonic? Then alternate that with a glass of water. And perhaps most importantly of all: really enjoy it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24pt;\">5. Relax<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Summer is the perfect time to relax and enjoy life. Relaxation is important for a healthy body and mind. Therefore, make sure you get enough rest and relaxation during the summer months. Take the time to meditate, do yoga or just enjoy a good book.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 24pt;\">Enjoy<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">With these tips you can enjoy all the beauty that summer has to offer full of energy and self-confidence. And if you need extra motivation and guidance during the summer months, at Happy Bodies you can also continue to exercise during the summer. Our coaches are always there for you. Have a nice summer!<\/span><\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n\n    <div  class=\"section has-colorscheme-1  section-cta for-cta is-variation-one\">\n        <div\n            class=\"cta-holder show_overlay has-overlay\" style=\"--overlay-color: rgba(10,10,10,0.65)\";>\n                                                <img decoding=\"async\"\n                        class=\"none default has-image-mobile-default\"\n                        src=\"https:\/\/happybodies.nl\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/unnamed-2-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n                            \n                        <div class=\"inner\">\n                                    <p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 24pt;\">Slim &amp; fit in 2 x 35 minutes every 10 days<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\">Plan a <a href=\"https:\/\/happybodies.nl\/en\/free-trial-training\/\">free trial training<\/a> or do the online <a href=\"https:\/\/happybodies.nl\/en\/membership-test\/\">membership test<\/a> and discover in 1 minute which program suits you.
