So are you looking for a delicious way to lose weight? Then definitely add the weight loss smoothie to your daily diet! With a weight loss smoothie for breakfast in the morning you will rev up your metabolism and boost your energy. It’s a great way to start the day, and if you don’t like to eat your vegetables then a smoothie is the best way to make sure your getting them in your diet. A weight loss smoothie will turn your body into a fat burning machine. It will also help you get the necessary nutrients that your body might be missing in your diet. You can get really creative and blend just about anything. For this article I will give you a few combinations that I use that will help you burn fat and fight hunger.
For starters you are going to need the right blender. Remember your making a smoothie so you need a blender not a juicer. A blender is a better option anyway because you get all the fiber and all the nutrients. With a juicer you lose all the good stuff and you don’t get any of the fiber because the juicer separates the fibers and just gives you juice. So make sure you are choosing a blender. Plus there a lot cheaper then juicers anyway.
I recommend the nutribullet blender. You can get one at kohls. I have used mine for over 5 years now and it works great. It’s very reliable and fast, plus it’s easy to clean. It’s also very affordable. I purchased the basic one which is all you need for $99.00 at kohls.
So now you have your blender. What’s next?
It is very simple and straightforward to make a well balanced weight loss smoothie. You need to choose a fruit, a vegetable, a fat, and a protein source. If you do it right the weight loss smoothie should be low in calories and high in nutrition.
One of favorite morning smoothies looks like this:
2 handfuls of blueberries
Half an avocado
3 celery stalks
1 scoop of whey protein powder
You can mix and match anyway you want to, just make sure to include a fruit, a vegetable, a fat, and a protein. Plus make sure to switch it up everyday. Don’t do the same smoothie everytime. Variety is the spice of life, remember that. Mix it up and your body will thank you for it. By mixing it up your body will get different nutrients that it needs. This will reduce your hunger.
As far as vegetables are concerned I think celery and cucumbers are the best way to go for your vegetable source. They are great for boosting metabolism and burning fat. You might also want to try spinach or collard greens. They are both loaded with nutrition and will make you feel full.
Another favorite smoothie of mine looks like this.
4 strawberries
1 cucumber
Handful of walnuts
1 scoop of whey protein powder
So again get creative with this and just follow the basic principle of balance. With a little trial and error you will find a combination that helps you loose weight and also taste delicious.
