Weight Loss Drinks
Weight loss drinks often fail because they are not always as mentally satisfying as eating and chewing solid food. As a result, many people end up seeking something more substantial to munch on after consuming a weight loss drink. The result? Unwanted, additional weight gain and an inability to meet weight loss goals.
Losing Weight the Healthy Way
No matter how much weight a person wants to lose, it is never a good idea to completely eliminate fat and carbohydrates from one’s diet or restrict calories too severely. The human body functions at its best when it is given a healthy balance of protein, carbohydrates, and fat, combined with moderate exercise.
A Healthy and Delicious Smoothie
This smoothie recipe has it all. It packs an impressive amount of protein, vitamins, and minerals, plus a few necessary carbohydrates for energy. The fat content is very minimal, but there is just enough to make it a filling meal. For people who have attained their desired weight, drinking this smoothie is still an excellent way to maintain great health for any meal of the day. Best of all, it’s so delicious that losing weight will actually be fun!
An important thing to consider: a drink that contains ice cream or frozen yogurt is not a smoothie – it’s a shake. When done right, however, a smoothie can be every bit as mouth-watering, and without the guilt!
Substitute With Splenda
Many of the following ingredients can be substituted for sugarless versions. In that case, use several packets of a sugar substitute, such as Splenda, to maintain sweetness. Ingredients that offer sugarless versions are marked with an asterisk.
