As the weather improves, our minds are focused on the holiday season ahead. While the stores are filled with pretty florals and stunning fabrics, you want to ensure that what fits at the beginning of the summer season still fits come fall when the leaves start to fall off the trees. This can sometimes be difficult when you are travelling or planning some kind of long-term holiday and intend to lose weight or even maintain it. While you don’t want to sacrifice your annual vacation, you can certainly still enjoy your time without resorting to unhealthy choices.

While sugar can sneak its way into a lot of food, there are many ways we can actively reduce it. Opting to cook food using the freshest and most natural ingredients is usually one of the best ways to do it as it is generally processed foods which are the worst culprits. Ready-made highly-processed foods tend to feature a lot of sugar, in many forms, and sometimes, it can be difficult to know precisely how much sugar you are eating until it is too late. Natural, unprocessed foods are always your best bet.
