Low calorie smoothie recipes for weight loss!

If you really want weight loss smoothies, you should try a nutrient dense green smoothie. Green smoothies contain your favorite fruit and your choice of leafy greens, like spinach, lettuce, or kale. Since all you taste is the sweetness of the fruit, you are able to enjoy a salad’s worth of greens in a delicious smoothie. You also absorb more nutrients from those greens being blended.

Many people, including myself, have found that a green smoothie for weight loss is simple and easy to incorporate healthy greens into our families’ diet.

Check out these top 5 tips to transform your smoothies into low calorie smoothie recipes!

What's the best weight loss plan?

Losing weight can be tricky. Most people want to know how to eat right, but most people just don’t know how. Or perhaps you get discouraged wondering, "when will others notice my weight loss?"

I firmly believe that any kind of weight loss attempts should be made with lifestyle changes in mind. Sometimes radically changing your diet works, but usually not in the long run. Most of the time people gain their weight right back once they return to their old eating habits.

I highly suggest that you track your food consumption for a week in a calorie app. I was very surprised at how many calories I was eating. You need to know how much food you are consuming before you can decide on which direction to go.

"Keystone habits can help individuals change, too. For instance, research indicates that doctors have a hard time getting obese people to make a broad change in their lifestyle. However, when patients focus on developing one keystone habit, such as keeping a meticulous food journal, other positive habits start to take root as well. Keystone habits work by providing small wins – that is, early successes that are fairly easy to attain. Developing a keystone habit helps you believe that improvement is possible in other spheres of life, too, which can trigger a cascade of positive change."

Simple Weight Loss Tips

I think the biggest factor to losing weight is to find the path to least resistance. In no way am I telling you to be lazy. I'm encouraging you to be smarter. Pick and write down one small impactful habit to add in your weight loss plan. Like... drink a healthy smoothie for weight loss every morning. Once that habit is second nature (like brushing your teeth) add another small habit.

Discover three quick weight loss tips to add to your lifestyle for positive results. Healthy smoothies can play a big part in adding excellent nutrition into your diet while on the run. Here are more fast ways to lose weight for you to ponder.

Consistency is key to permanent weight loss.

What can I add to weight loss smoothies?

There are so many options for you to use in your low calorie fruit smoothie recipes. Fortunately, you have many low calorie smoothies for quick weight loss collected for you on this website.

Coconut milk - One of the top four health benefits of coconut oil is weight loss. But of course in small amounts. I also put together some chocolate coconut smoothie recipes. Yummy!

Cottage Cheese - This ingredient in high protein smoothies has surprised me the most. It is creamy and adds about 14g of protein per serving!

Protein Powders - There are many different ways to consume protein throughout the day. Some of the best whey protein powders make getting protein into your diet convenient and easy. Searching for more ideas to incorporate protein shakes for weight loss? How about try a whey protein smoothie recipe with extra protein?

Psyllium Fiber - A perfect weight loss supplement to satisfy your appetite and to regulate your digestive system.

How do I make a weight watchers smoothie?

How many weight watcher points are in your smoothie recipes? Most, if not all, of the fruit smoothie recipes on this site are low in points. I do like how the company wants to promote eating fresh foods.

I do not use Weight Watchers. But for your convenience, I have totaled up several smoothie recipes. I show you how many calories, grams of fat, grams of fiber, and Weight Watcher points in each smoothie recipe.

Can I ever have chocolate again?

Most certainly! You can blend up one of my chocolate smoothie recipes. They do contain fat and calories... Most, if not all, of them are created with whole foods, packed with fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Unlike a chocolate bar, these chocolate smoothies can satisfy your need for more sweets.

Exercise for Weight Loss

Can you lose weight without exercising? Yes... but the weight loss will be slower. Plus, you will not get as toned as you may want. Exercise also improves many functions of the body, especially your heart and lungs. Many exercise coaches recommend for someone who wants to lose weight to do a combination of aerobic exercise and weight lifting throughout the week.

I have changed my thoughts on exercise this past year and a half while losing over 96 pounds. I will be writing more about my thoughts on exercise. But for now... I will say that exercising for 20 minutes every single day is better than setting big aspirations for a few weeks and then quitting.

I choose mostly walking and biking. Some days I don't feel like it. But my goal is to do something for only 20 minutes. I play an audio book, show, or podcast... the time flies by. Usually, I will start walking/biking with the intent to go for only 20 minutes but do 30-40 minutes instead. If I'm limited on time, I don't need to feel guilty for only doing 20 minutes.

Make sure to not look at exercise as a chore. Change your attitude to look forward to the small improvements to your body. I'm not only referring to weight loss. Examples: Notice how you can steadily walk up the stairs without stopping for a breath or gain your balance. Perhaps, you can be excited to join a friend for a hike... instead of avoiding those strenuous activities.

In order to be physically fit, you really have to be consistent with your exercise routine. Don't despair... I know that you can do it. Slow and steady wins the race!

Start today and change your life forever!
