Spring is here, but there’s still time to get in shape for bikini season. It is important to incorporate cardiovascular exercise and strength training into your workout. Other options like yoga and pilates will help too. Eating is just as important. Hollywood Trainer and Creator of Bikini Boot Camp Jeanette Jenkins, offers five eating tips to keep you healthy.

1. Eat Five to Six Small Meals a Day
This is not a cue to go crazy. Try creating a mix of 100-200 calorie(s) snacks and 300-400 calories meals.

2. Take a Daily Fish Oil Supplement
This supplement will help you burn more fat, decrease risk of heart disease and to supply the brain with the building blocks for feel good hormones.

3. Eat 25 Grams of Fiber From Fruits, Vegetables and Whole Grains
Fiber helps you slow down the absorption of sugar so your body can burn fat. Also helps you feel full.

4. Keep Your Sugar Intake Down To 13 Grams Per Serving
You do not want to spike your blood sugar level which will hinder you from burning fat.

5. Stop Eating Two Hours Before Bed
For the person on the go, late night meals is a normalcy, but they can add weight to your frame. Try to plan your meals daily, so you avoid binging bedside.
