Get Fit Fast with Florida Oranges

Summer is coming, and if you want to get bathing suit ready in a hurry you need to keep your kitchen stocked with Florida oranges. Florida oranges are a sweet snack that you can enjoy instead of eating ice cream, candy, or cake. Cutting out just a couple hundred calories from your daily diet will let you lose weight without even changing your diet or exercising more. Of course exercising more and making better food choices will help you lose weight, but you really can lose weight just by substituting Florida oranges or other citrus fruits for the snacks you’re eating now. Each orange has around 80 calories, and a candy bar has more than 300. So cutting out two 300 candy bars a day and eating delicious fresh Florida oranges instead will save you about 150 calories per day. Eat a low calorie grapefruit or more Florida oranges for breakfast and you’ll lose weight even faster.

Florida oranges are great to eat when you’re trying to lose weight because they contain a lot of fiber. Eating fiber will make you feel full and keep you from going back to the cupboard or the vending machine for more snacks. When you are feeling hungry between breakfast and lunch eat Florida oranges instead of sugary pastries or candy bars and you’ll feel full until lunch just by eating one low calorie orange. You may even eat less for lunch, which will save you more calories. Eating a fiber filled orange for dessert will help you stay full until the next morning so you won’t go looking for a sweet midnight snack. Diet and nutrition experts say that when you eat Florida oranges your body burns more calories than the orange has in it while breaking down the orange for fuel, which means that every orange you eat helps you lose weight by burning calories.

Florida oranges are also fabulous for diets because they are easy to take with you. Take a couple to the gym when you do exercise because the vitamins and minerals in Florida oranges can help your muscles repair themselves after a workout. Orange juice also has a lot of the electrolytes you need to replace after a workout, so eating an orange after you workout can help you stay strong and not get tired or dizzy after the workout. If you’re serious about getting fit stock your pantry with Florida oranges today.
