Healthy lifestyle
Owen Hambulo, a personal trainer and the owner of Owen Fitness in Sandton, says exercise and healthy eating are great ways to lose weight.
After detoxing, it is important to only eat healthy food and the right portions.
With just a few weeks left, you can still make it!
Owen says the recommended weight loss per week is 1 to 2 kilograms.
“Losing weight takes time and by slowly changing daily habits, it gets you a step closer.”
He warns against unhealthy eating.
“I’m sure you’ve heard the old saying ‘you can’t out train a bad diet’. That’s true,” says Owen.
He says both exercise and healthy eating are what will help you maintain a healthy weight.
