8-step Post-holiday Detox Plan To Lose Weight

January 14, 2020 by Illinois Valley Clean Team

Illinois Valley Clean - Team 8-step Post-holiday Detox Plan To Lose Weight

After the holidays, usually comes the guilt. All you want to do is lose the gained weight and recover your healthy style of life. Well, that’s why we gather for you eight healthy new year tips for you to return to shape in less time. Keep reading to discover this post-holiday detox plan.

Drink lots of water

Water is the natural fuel that flows through your body. Water helps you release toxins, and regulates other critical processes inside you, like the weight you gained during the holidays. Drink enough water in January, and your body will recover its balance. Also, you are probably slightly dehydrated because of all the alcohol you drank at Christmas.

Embrace the liquid food

When you’re recovering from the holidays excess, the best thing you can do is avoiding any unnecessary calories. One useful hack to do this is eating a liquid lunch like soup. A bowl of yummy hot soup is an excellent dinner option that will make you feel light when you go to bed.

Don’t skip breakfast

Many people who want to lose weight make this mistake. Skipping breakfast usually backfires because it produces over/eating later. Also, your body should eat at specific times, without letting too much time between meals. This will help your body regain its balance and rhythm, and your metabolism will work better.

Eat light at night

You will rest better if you eat light at night. Your body needs proper rest to recover from the holidays. In fact, the human body burns calories while it sleeps, so this is another great reason to sleep well.

Grant yourself a mocktail

Your stomach and liver probably are worn out after the holidays. Give a break to alcohol and sweet drinks and embrace the herbal teas. Sparkling water, green tea, or pomegranate juice will do the trick. Detox your body with these natural beverages, and in a couple of weeks, you’ll feel good as new.

Say no to calorie bombs

Do you have pie or candy leftovers? Give that food away and fill up your fridge with healthy food and light snacks. Even if you love that cheesecake, it’s better to avoid that risk and let someone else enjoy that calorie bomb. When you remove the temptation, the process becomes much easier.

Move does muscles

Of course, no detox plan is complete without good-old-exercise. You need to regain your body’s strength. Lift some weights, hit the ground running, or do some squats and abs for a change. Exercise will free you from stress and will give you a good night’s sleep.

Respect your bedtime

Last but not least, don’t forget to sleep seven or eight hours a day. Depriving your body of rest doesn’t do any good and usually causes quite the opposite. When you sleep, you also burn calories and regain balance through breathing. Like gym lovers say: eat, sleep, repeat.
We hope you recover your shape in no time! And don’t worry about your kitchen, if our fridge is all messy after the holidays and your cabinets are all grease and sticky, we can do for you a deep house cleaning. Contact us on our website.

Best Home Cleaning Gifts To Give At Christmas

Who says a Christmas gift has to be something to play with, wear, or watch? Sure, those things are nice but sometimes what we really want is a practical gift; a useful gift. Sometimes what we wish Santa would bring is a shiny, home cleaning gift for Christmas! Maybe we’re too afraid or embarrassed to ask. Fear not, the Illinois Valley Clean Team understands your passion for a clean home and is here to offer you several Christmas gift ideas for house cleaning. 

Illinois Valley Clean Team Gift Card 

As last year’s host for Christmas, you remember the mess left by your friends and family. Oh, sure they didn’t mean to trash the living room, downstairs bathroom, upstairs bathroom, the guest room, the kids’ rooms, the office, the kitchen, the dining room, the family room, the basement…AAH! You remember how long it took to clean your home and don’t wish that horror on your worst enemy, especially not this year’s host for Christmas. A maid service gift card is the perfect gift idea for that special host in your life. Moreover, the Illinois Valley Clean Team is the largest residential cleaning company in the Illinois Valley with a valuable reputation. You can’t go wrong! 

Angry Mama Microwave Cleaner 

Whether you have a large family or a spouse who refuses to use a cover, the microwave is a playground for caked-on spills and messes—a cleaning disaster waiting to happen. Sometimes the simplest solutions are all the answers you need. With the power of steam, the Angry Mama Microwave Cleaner effortlessly loosens grime in seconds. These little wonders not only save your back but make excellent little stocking stuffers for that special someone in need of a helping hand. 

Cordless Shower Scrubber 

After a long week of work, the last thing you want to do is spend the weekend bent over the tub scrubbing tile and breaking your back. The Cordless Shower Scrubber, weighing less than 4lbs., is a wonder at getting laborious work done. Not only is this a great Christmas gift idea for the avid house cleaner, but the Cordless Shower Scrubber would also be an asset for car collectors, lawn lovers, and more. This is truly a versatile machine. 

Ecovacs Deebot Robotic Vacuum 

The trend these days is trying to find the time to get the essential things in life done. Things like general health care, car maintenance, lawn maintenance, and house cleaning. We no longer have enough time. One solution to this problem is the Ecovacs Deebot Robotic Vacuum. Able to clean both hard floors and carpet with ease, this little beauty moves about the house silently keeping your home clean while you tend to more important things in life. With such a time-saving solution, why not add this gem to the top of your Christmas list ideas! 

The Amazing Whip-It Cleaning Solution 

Here comes a one-hit-wonder cleaning solution that does it all! The Amazing Whip-It is an eco-friendly, plant-based, pet and child safe, biodegradable, non-toxic, power cleaner/stain remover that does it all. Seriously! It’s even safe for clothes. This wonder product is safe to clean all surfaces. So, whether you’re in the kitchen, bathroom, living room, kid’s room, laundry room, or garage make sure the Amazing Whip-It is on your Christmas wish list for you and your family. 

Universal Cleaning Gel 

Nothing is worse than getting food stuck between the keys of your keyboard or in anything with small buttons. Now, cleaning those little annoying areas is no longer a problem with the reusable Universal Cleaning Gel. This glob of putty-like substance has a nice lemony scent and when pressed into a surface will adhere to the shape and pick up dirt and other small particles. This is a great Christmas gift idea for office workers, car enthusiasts, techies, and just about anyone who carries a device. 

Woolzies Pure Wool Dryer Balls 

With inflation growing by the minute, we’re always looking for ways to cut expenses at home. A simple and effective solution is Woolzies Pure Wool Dryer Balls. These energy-saving wool balls bounce around your dryer without harsh chemicals or artificial materials. Moreover, the gentle pounding in the dryer reduces the amount of time for your clothes to dry and eliminates wrinkles. Drop a set of these in Christmas stockings and see the joy you bring this holiday season! 

No longer are the days where cleaning gifts are a taboo Christmas present. We live in a society where new generations are learning to abandon old stereotypes. It’s becoming vastly acceptable to give gifts of practicality and thought versus popularity and commercialism. Therefore, with this helpful list go bravely forward as you adventure into the wonderful Christmas season of giving.
