Healthy snacking on the go, though difficult, can help you ditch the sugar and keep the sluggish blues. These are some options that will keep you satisfied, such as:
* Guacamole with flax crackers, celery sticks and red pepper slices
* Apples – Filling and satisfying and especially good for decreasing appetite
* Asparagus – grilled or steamed, this vegetable detoxifies the liver and eating it raw will decrease belly bloat.
* Chia Fresca – aids in detoxification in the body.
* Grapefruit – helps to curb hunger, boosts your metabolism and gives your skin a glow.
* Celery – A great source of fiber, which helps to move food through your digestive tract.
* Avocado – Aside from lowering cholesterol, avocados contain a nutrient called glutathione, which blocks at least 30 different carcinogens while helping the liver detoxify.
*Pineapples – known for their abilities to cleanse the pores in your lungs and reduce stomach fat.
*Watermelon – Health experts claim that watermelon helps your liver and kidneys flush out impurities.

4 Haas Avocados
3 Tbsp. Freshly squeezed lemon juice
5 Dashes of Tabasco
1 Tomatoes Diced
½ c. Small diced red onion
1 Garlic clove minced
1 tsp. Kosher salt
1 tsp. Fresh ground pepper
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh out of their shells into a large bowl. (I use my hands.) Immediately add the lemon juice, hot sauce, onion, garlic, salt, and pepper and toss well. Using a sharp knife, slice through the avocados in the bowl until they are finely diced. Add the tomatoes. Mix well and taste for salt and pepper.
