10 Easy Food Swaps to Get You Back in Bathing Suits

1. Swap your regular smoothie for a Kale-enhanced one. Your normal smoothie is likely loaded with sugary juices and added fats, making a 20 ounce serving a whopping 400 calories or more (um, that’s hardly a “healthy” drink). Try swapping out for a smaller bottle of something rich and zesty (thanks, Kale!) like Green Mustache’s Mixed Berry Smoothie. At only 120 calories for an 8 ounce serving, you’ll walk away feeling full thanks to 4 grams of fiber thanks to the heap of kale that goes into making each bottle. Oh, and the berries cover most of the kale flavor, so even sugar addicts will love this one. Check it out.
