Imagine, you are travelling in Italy. Today you visit a beautiful ancient and medieval city of Lucca in Tuscany, famous for its intact Renaissance-era city walls, palazzos, gardens and monuments. People don’t drive so many cars there, as we do in the same size towns in America Italians and visiting tourists walk or ride bikes everywhere.

This type of activity and a healthy Mediterranean cuisine (that Italians are famous for) with lots of fresh meals, vegetables and fruits, liberated them from constant worry about gaining weight, and feeling guilty when they eat. They simply enjoy their life and healthy foods. So should you.

But there, across the ocean, in a New World, is a little bit different. Many people are busy trying to solve a puzzle: what new diet they should be on to loose weight? Bring it on… this real “headache” cultivated by pushy weight-loss marketing “gurus.” If you don’t gain weight, they are out of business. To whom will they preach their ridiculous ideas, if people will maintain normal weight? Why should we listen to them?

Just follow up your simple plan and you’ll not gain weight in a first place:
*Eat smart, small portions–healthy, fresh foods 4-5 times a day;
*Don’t eat after 6:00 PM (only a bunch of almonds or pumpkin seeds, a glass of kefir, one apple and/or hot tea with lemon)
* Move your body: walk everywhere you can, take the stairs instead of an elevator, ride a bike, exercise.

How many fat or overweight people did you see in Italy, France, Spain? Not too many. So, do yourself a favor. First of all, relax, it’s your weekend! Wake up with sunrise and don’t rush. Make your healthy, green breakfast and take your time to eat it slow. Enjoy your delicious, fresh meal made from scratch like Italians do. Then go outside to greet a beautiful day, the sun, blue sky and green Nature. Then walk or take your bike and ride several miles to burn 100-300 calories. Come back home with new energy and fine mood. Now click on an arrow below and explore Lucca by day and night.
