Three Things I Swear By – August Edition
Welcome to the DAOFitLife wellness series that delivers one diet hack, one fitness trick, and one life upgrade you can actually stick with. This month’s tips are served Dr. Seuss-style — because why not have fun while building better habits?
🥕 Thing One: Crudités & Watermelon Snacking
Why I’m Obsessed: When the heat hits, cold crunch wins. A crudités plate with protein-packed dips + juicy watermelon slices gives you volume, hydration, and satisfaction without the bloat.
The Flow: I prep grab-and-go crudités boxes on Sunday with hummus, tzatziki, and a new favorite: Greek yogurt ranch. I pair this with watermelon cubes, and when I’m feeling extra, I blend it into my Wawa drink dupe (Strawberry Lemonade + Iced Tea + Ghost Energy).
Pro Tip: Add sea salt and lime to your watermelon for an electrolyte boost.

🧘 Thing Two: Labubu Swiss Ball Workout
Why It Works: The Swiss ball turns basic movements into an entire Pilates-style core workout. Labubu is your fitspo this week—check out the image for the 4-move, 3-round routine.
The Moves: Sit-ups, Plank Holds, Glute Bridges, Back Extensions — all done on a stability ball.
Pro Tip: Set a timer for 3 circuits while watching Bravo or listening to a podcast.

📥 Thing Three: Clean Inbox Tool
Why It Works: Clutter kills clarity. This tool clears out old threads, unsubscribes you with one click, and helps manage newsletters and AI transcripts.
The Flow: Set a calendar reminder once a week to “Inbox Zen” for 10 minutes.
Pro Tip: Filter by ‘last opened’ and bulk-delete anything over 30 days old.
