     #1: The Power of Cleansing with Smoothies

You have probably heard of detoxes and cleanses, without fully understanding

how they work. A cleanse is not a cure-all solution to help you lose weight, but it

can jump start your weight loss goals. Let us explore the actual power of

cleansing with smoothies.

What is a Detox?

A detox, also known as a cleanse, is a way of ridding your body of harmful toxins

and substances. When applied to food, a detox can help you to flush waste

products. These detoxes generally last between 3 and 7 days, depending on

your current health. During this period, you will eliminate solids from your diet,

replacing your meals with healthy smoothies. When combined with proper

hydration, you can cleanse your digestive system of waste that could be interfere

with your weight loss goals.

                  

    How Can a Detox Help You Lose Weight?

    The main benefit of performing a detox is to give you a clean slate before

    starting a diet. Here is a breakdown of how this works:

          Speed up digestion by consuming liquid meals

          Eliminate unhealthy fats and unnecessary sugars

          Supply your body with proper hydration and nutrients

          Cleanse your liver and kidneys

          Improve your digestion and promote weight loss

    Essentially, you could perform a

    detox with any health foods and

    proper hydration. Though, receiving

    your nutrition in liquid form, such as

    from a smoothie, is easier on your

    digestive system. When you

    consume solids, your digestive

    system has to break down the foods

    before the nutrients in the food can

    be absorbed. Once the food is

    broken down, waste is sent to your

    colon. Consuming a liquid

    meal speeds this process along, as your body does not have to break down the

    meal before sorting out the nutrients and the waste.

    Also, by eliminating unhealthy fats and sugars, you are ensuring that your body

    receives optimal nutrition. There is less waste for your body to process when you

    eliminate processed foods and other unhealthy substances.

                    

When performing a detox, it is important to stay hydrated. Drinking plenty of

water helps the cleansing process. Many people notice a reduction in the

frequency of headaches and fatigue when performing a detox. Another benefit

that people often experience is regular bowel movements. These benefits are

not actually the result of the detox, but the result of proper hydration.

After years of eating a diet full of processed foods, your liver and kidneys are

working overtime. As harmful toxins and unhealthy substances build up in your

kidneys and liver, these organs have more difficulty filtering waste. This can

slow down your digestive process, making it more difficult to lose weight. A

detox gives your kidneys and liver a break and cleanses them of these

unhealthy substances.

The combination of the effects described leads to improved digestion. The liquid

smoothies are easier for your body to digest and allow your digestive process to

flush out harmful toxins that could slow down your ability to lose weight.

The bottom line is that a detox gives you a good starting point for your diet. You

should experience a substantial drop in weight after completing your detox. The

                  

average person loses between 2 and 5 pounds by performing a detox.

Essentially, you can think of a detox as a reset for your digestive system.

Using Smoothies for a Detox

There are many different ways to cleanse your system, but a smoothie

cleanse offers a healthy solution. Smoothies provide you with nutrition, as long

as you select the right ingredients. If you want to detox your body, you can use

smoothies as a meal replacement for several days – or up to a week.

There are 5 steps for using smoothies to cleanse your body:

   1. Choose Your Smoothies

   2. Prepare for the Detox

   3. Drink 4 to 6 Smoothies Per Day

   4. Drink Plenty of Water

   5. Monitor Your Results

Choose Your Smoothies

First, you will need to choose your smoothies. Towards the end of this guide,

you will find a selection of healthy smoothie recipes. It is a good idea to include a

large variety of smoothies in your diet while cleansing your system. You will be

drinking between 4 and 6 smoothies per day.

If you are pressed for time, you could make 2 to 3 batches during the day, with

each batch containing 2 servings. Just remember to store your second serving

in an airtight container in your fridge. You may need to stir leftovers smoothies

before serving.

Prepare for the Detox

                  

About one week before starting your detox, you should prepare your body for

the changes. Suddenly going from a diet full of processed foods to a diet

containing only smoothies can be a shock to your system.

Prepare your body by replacing one meal per day with a smoothie. For example,

one week before you start your detox, you could begin replacing your breakfast with

a healthy smoothie from the selection of recipes provided later in this guide.

Drink 4 to 6 Smoothies Per Day

Once you are ready to get started

on the cleanse, you will be drinking

between 4 and 6 smoothies per

day. It is important to include a

variety of recipes so that your body

receives proper nutrition. This also

helps keep you from getting tired

of drinking the same smoothies

over and over again.

You should start your smoothie

cleanse in the morning. Keep track

of the day that you started and pay

attention to your body. If you

experience fatigue or weakness,

you should return your normal diet.

This is a rare occurrence and is

often the result of eating a diet that primarily consists of starches and

refined sugars.

               

Start your morning with a smoothie. The first smoothie of the day should include

more fruit than vegetables. Fruit contains more sugar than vegetables, which

gives your body energy for the day. Have another smoothie for lunch, and

another in the early evening. You can have your fourth smoothie when you

would normally eat supper. You choose any of the smoothies provided later in

this guide.

If 4 smoothies per day do not keep you full, then you can increase your daily

smoothie count to 6. Several of these smoothies should contain blueberries,

blackberries, or strawberries. Berries contain antioxidants which help

promote the detoxification process.

Drink Plenty of Water

When performing a detox, it is important

to stay hydrated. Drink at least 8

glasses of water throughout the day, in

addition to your 4 to 6 smoothies.

Drinking water will help you stay full

between meals and also aid the

cleansing process.

Monitor Your Results

The final step in performing a smoothie

detox is to monitor your results. After the

first couple of days, you should

begin to notice some changes. You may experience more regular bowel

movements and clearer urine. The length of detox will depend on your needs.

Again, pay attention to your body. You should start to notice an increased energy,

along with better focus and mental clarity. After several days, if you have

                  

not experienced any improvements or changes to your body, then you should

continue with the detox. Continue drinking 4 to 6 smoothies per day for up to 7

days.

You may have trouble staying away from solids during your detox – especially

during work. Snacking on some fresh fruit or vegetables during the day will not

detract from your detox. You could snack on an orange, an apple, a banana, or

any other fresh produce to keep you away from processed foods during the

detox.

When the 3 to 7 days are up, you can resume your regular diet or use the

Smoothie Weight Loss Action Plan provided later in this guide. If you are

serious about weight loss, you should definitely consider using the easy-to-

follow action plan.

                  

     #2: Exercises to Help Promote Weight Loss

    If you ask any doctor to describe the best method for losing weight they will

    likely tell you to eat a balanced diet and get regular exercise.

    When you want to lose weight, you might focus solely on your diet. While eating

    healthy can help promote weight loss, you should make additional changes to

    your lifestyle and daily routine. Along with a healthy diet, you should include

    regular exercise.

    You do not need to begin an intense workout to reach your ideal weight. But, it is

    a good idea to include some form of exercise. You can keep it simple. In the next

    chapter, you will create a 7-day workout schedule that you can use to promote

    weight loss, along with your smoothie diet.

    So, which exercises should you use to lose weight? This will depend on your

    current fitness level and health. Workouts can be divided into two separate

    categories – cardiovascular exercises and strength training exercises.

    Cardiovascular Exercise

    It is recommended that everyone gets 30 minutes of cardiovascular exercise at

    least 5 times per week. If you are not used to working out, this can seem like a

    lot of work. You can start off slowly. Choose a cardiovascular activity, such as:

          Walking



          Jogging



          Running



          Cycling



          Indoor cycling



          Swimming

                       

For those that have not worked out in a while, you may want to start with

walking. Whichever activity you choose you can start by performing 10 minutes

of exercise Monday through Friday, for the first week. During your second week

of exercise, increase your workout time to 20 minutes. When you reach the third

week, switch to 30 minutes of exercise.

Cardiovascular exercise improves heart health and gets your blood pumping.

You will burn additional calories, without engaging in a strenuous activity, and

begin improving your overall health.

Strength Training Exercises

Cardiovascular exercise is a good place to start. If you really want to lose weight

quickly and efficiently, then add strength training exercises to your routine. Again,

you can start off slowly.

               

    Strength training helps you build

    muscle. While you do not need to

    develop large, bulging muscles,

    building some muscle definition will

    help you lose weight. The more

    muscle you have the more energy

    your body requires. Adding muscle

    increases your metabolism, allowing

    you to burn additional calories.

    Perform a handful of strength

    training exercises after you

    complete your cardiovascular

    exercises for the day. By

    performing the cardio workouts first,

    you will improve blood circulation,

    which makes your strength training

    exercises more effective.

    Spending 10 minutes performing strength training exercises will not take too

    much time out of your day. You could even shorten your cardio workout to 20

    minutes so that your total workout only lasts 30 minutes.

    5 Strength Training Exercises

    Here are 5 strength training exercises that you can perform for about 10

    minutes after your cardiovascular exercises:

          Dolphin Plank



          Single-Leg Dumbbell Row

                      

          Squat to Overhead Press



          Step-Up with Bicep Curl



          Curtsy Lunge

    Performing one set of each of the following exercises should take between 7 and

    10 minutes. Depending on how long it takes to complete each exercise, you

    should include additional sets. Though, for the first few days, you should perform

    one set of each exercise to get a better sense of how long these strength

    training exercises take.

    Dolphin Plank

    Lie face down on an exercise mat. Keep your toes tucked and your forearms on

    the floor next to your chest. Lift your belly button and raise your hips until you are

    in a plank position.

    Inhale and lift your hips until your body forms the shape of an inverted V. Hold

    this pose for 1 second and then slowly return the starting plank position. Perform

    15 repetitions to complete a set, which should take about 1 minute.

    Single-Leg Dumbbell Row

    The single-leg dumbbell row will work your shoulders, abs, biceps, quadriceps,

    and hamstrings. Stand up with a 5-pound weight in your left hand. Lean forward,

    with your right hand on a chair or structure for support. Continue leaning forward

    until your back is nearly parallel to the floor. As you lean forward, keep the weight

    in your left hand brought up towards your chest. After your back is mostly

    parallel, lower your left arm towards the floor. Lift your left leg behind you. Try to

    stretch your leg out in a straight line. This is the starting position.

                       

Slowly bring your weight up, until your elbow is even with your torso. Hold for 1

second and then lower the weight. Perform 15 repetitions and then switch

sides for another 15 repetitions. One set should take about 2 minutes.

Squat to Overhead Press

For the squat to overhead press, you will stand with your feet shoulder-width

apart. Your elbows should be bent with 5-pound weights in each hand at

shoulder height. Your palms should be facing forward. Lower yourself into a

squat and hold for 1 second.

Push through your heels to stand up. Press the weights over your head. Hold

for 1 second and then return to the starting position. Perform 15 repetitions to

complete a set. Each set should take a little over 1-minute.

Step-Up with Bicep Curl

The step-up with bicep curl will help work your hamstrings, biceps, quadriceps,

and abs. Start with your left foot on a stool, bench, or chair. The surface should

be stable and capable of supporting your entire weight. Hold a 5-pound weight in

each hand.

In one motion, step your right foot onto the stool and then bring your right knee

up until your thigh is parallel to the floor. As you perform this motion, you should

lift the weights to perform a bicep curl. Step back down from the stool, with your

left leg still on the chair. Perform 15 repetitions and then switch sides. One

complete set, including both sides, should take about 2 minutes.

Curtsy Lunge

                  

The final strength training exercise will help work your abs, along with your legs,

hips, and butt. Stand with your feet hip-width apart. Your hands should be on

your hips. Take a large step diagonally backward with your left foot and cross

your left leg behind your right. As you step back, bend your knees and reach

your left hand towards the floor, as you cross your left hand past the outside of

your right foot. This motion is similar to performing a curtsy. Keep your right hand

on your hip.

Return to the starting position and repeat for 15 repetitions before switching

sides. Performing 15 repetitions on each side should take about 2 minutes.

Adding these 5 exercises to your schedule is not difficult. As mentioned, it should

only take between 8 and 10 minutes to perform all of these exercises. After

completing 20 to 30 minutes of cardio, you should perform at least 10 minutes of

strength training. If you have the energy available, you could work out for longer.

Cut Back On Bad Habits

If you want to get the most out of your smoothie diet, you should incorporate

additional healthy lifestyle choices. Cutting back on bad habits, such as smoking

or drinking, getting enough rest, and staying hydrated can all help you reach

your weight loss goals. Though, one of the greatest changes that you could

make is to include regular exercise.

As you read through the Smoothie Weight Loss Action Plan provided in the next

section, you will find out how to incorporate these exercises into your weight loss

solution.

Combining exercise with a detox and healthy eating will help you get in the

best shape of your life.

                  

           #3: Smoothie Weight Loss Action Plan

Now that you understand the importance of regular exercise and performing

a detox, it is time to explore the Smoothie Weight Loss Action Plan.

You will incorporate the tips provided in the previous chapters, along with a

selection of tasty smoothie recipes found in the following chapter, to develop a

plan for reaching your ideal weight. Everyone has different needs, goals, and

personal preferences. For this reason, the Smoothie Weight Loss Action Plan

has been made so that you can easily develop your own outline for losing weight

with smoothies. The basis of this outline is a detailed weight loss journal.

Create a Weight Loss Journal

The first step to losing weight and getting in better shape is to create a weight

loss journal. You can use a notebook or a word processing program on your

computer. Your weight loss journal will include your goals, your workout

schedule, and will provide a spot for you to log your progress.

                  

Use the following steps to create a weight loss journal that includes a

complete 7-day outline that you can follow week after week until you reach

your ideal weight:

   1. Outline Your Weight Loss Journal

   2. Set Your Goals

   3. Create a 7-Day Workout Schedule

   4. Perform a 3 to 7-Day Cleanse

   5. Create a 7-Day Smoothie Plan

   6. Track Your Progress

Outline Your Weight Loss Journal

Your weight loss journal will be divided into multiple sections. You will use

these separate sections to write down the details of your overall weight loss

plan, starting with your goals and finishing with a section where you can track

your progress. For each of the sections described below, start a new page in

your journal, so that you have room to make adjustments and add in any notes.

Set Your Goals

Before you start detoxing your body or working out, you should set your goals.

Decide on your ideal weight. You should also weigh yourself so that you have a

starting figure to work with for tracking your progress. Weigh yourself in the

morning, before you have had anything to eat. In addition to losing a specific

amount of weight, you may have additional goals. This could include reaching

a particular waist or dress size.

Write down your goals on the first page of your weight loss journal. This way, every

time you open your journal, you are presented with your goals. It may also

                  

    help to write down some of the reasons that you want to reach these goals, such

    as improved health, look better, feel healthier, prevent illness, or any other

    reasons that you may have for wanting to lose weight.

    Create a 7-Day Workout Schedule

    In order to create your 7-day workout schedule, refer back to the previous chapter

    and choose which exercise you would like to perform for your 20 minutes of

    cardiovascular exercise. Here are the options that you have to choose from:

          Walking



          Jogging



          Running



          Cycling



          Indoor cycling



          Swimming

    Choose one or more exercises

    that you would like to perform. If

    you have not worked out in a

    while, then you may want to

    start with walking. After several

    weeks, you could replace this

    with any of the other

    cardiovascular exercises. Along

    with choosing an

    exercise, you should choose two days of rest. Choose which 5 days of the

    week you want to exercise and which 2 days you want to rest. Write this down

    on a new page in your weight loss journal under a heading labeled “My Workout

    Schedule”.

                     

    You will perform 20 minutes of cardiovascular exercise 5 days a week and rest

    for 2 days. In addition to cardiovascular exercise, you should include a selection

    of the strength training exercises described in the previous chapter. You should

    perform at least 10 minutes of strength training following your 20 minutes of

    cardiovascular exercise. Performing one set of each of the following exercises

    should take about 10 minutes. If you have the energy, you can add additional

    sets to your strength training workout – just pay attention to your body and avoid

    over-exerting yourself. Here are the strength training exercises that you should

    include in your workout:

          Dolphin Plank



          Single-Leg Dumbbell Row



          Squat to Overhead Press



          Step-Up with Bicep Curl



          Curtsy Lunge

    Write down this list of exercises and the number of sets that you want to include

    in your workout. You can add this directly below your cardiovascular exercise in

    your weight loss journal.

    Perform a 3 to 7-Day Cleanse

    Once you create a workout schedule, you can perform your smoothie cleanse.

    You should follow the instructions provided in the Power of Cleaning with

    Smoothies chapter.

    Decide how long you want to perform the cleanse and write this down on a

    separate page in your weight loss journal. You should follow through with the

    detox for at least 3 days and up to 7 days. Again, remember to prepare your

    body for the detox. About one week before detoxing, you should begin

    replacing one of your meals with a smoothie.

                     

Your detox will require you to drink between 4 and 6 smoothies per day. If you

feel undernourished, you can include additional smoothies or snack on fresh

fruits and vegetables during the day. Though, the fresh produce should be

limited. The majority of your nutrition should come from the smoothies. The liquid

smoothies are easier for your body to digest and process. This aids the cleansing

process, so you will want to limit solid foods as much as possible.

Create a 7-Day Smoothie Plan

After completing the smoothie cleanse, you should get started on your smoothie

diet. There really is not a whole lot to a smoothie diet. Basically, you will be

replacing one or two meals per day with a smoothie while making better eating

habits.

Here is a quick overview of the basic smoothie diet. You can make

modifications to this based on your own individual needs:

   1. Smoothie for Breakfast

   2. Smoothie for Lunch

   3. Healthy Protein Based Dinner

   4. Light Snacks (Fruits, Vegetables, or Nuts) During the Day

   5. Drink 8 Glasses of Water

Copy this information into your weight loss journal for easy reference. In the

following chapter, you will find 16 delicious smoothie recipes. This provides you

with enough variety to choose 2 separate smoothies for each day of the week,

with 2 leftover recipes. You can follow the outline provided with the recipes or

decide for yourself which smoothies you want to have for breakfast or lunch.

                  

Have a smoothie for breakfast and a smoothie for lunch. These smoothies will give you all the energy

you need to get through the day. You can use any of the smoothie recipes provided in the next

chapter. Remember to include a variety of recipes in your diet, in order to provide you with optimal nutrition and

keep you from getting bored of drinking the same smoothies every day. Again,

you can follow the order that the recipes are listed or choose your own meal

plan. If you decide to make your own meal plan based on the recipes provided,

make sure that you write down the order in your weight loss journal.

For dinner, you should have a protein-based meal. This could include just about

any meat dish, such as grilled chicken, salmon, or pork chops. Serve your meat

with one to two servings of fresh or steamed vegetables. If you are a

vegetarian, you should find healthy vegetarian meals that contain a good source

of protein, such as meals made from tofu, lentils, or beans.

During the day, if you find yourself craving sugar or needing a snack, you can

snack on fresh fruit, vegetables, seeds, or nuts. Pack one to two servings of one

of these snacks and take it to work with you.

In addition to eating healthy, you should also drink healthy. Drink at least 8

glasses of water each day. Staying hydrated will also help promote

digestive health and keep you full between meals.

                  

Track Your Progress

The final part of the Smoothie Weight Loss Action Plan is to track your progress.

Write down everything related to your weight loss activities in your journal. Write

down what you eat each day, which exercises you perform, how long your

workout lasts, and any extra details that you feel are relevant. The primary goal

is to keep track of the steps that you are taking and to write down your results.

At the end of every week, you should perform a weigh-in. Do not weigh yourself

more than once per week. The average person will lose between 1 and 2

pounds per week, with healthy eating and regular exercise. There will not be

enough of a change day to day to be noticeable on the scales.

Write down the results of your weekly weigh-in and use this as motivation to keep

up the good work. If you fall off the wagon, get right back up and continue with

your plan the following day.

            

         #4: Delicious Smoothie Recipes

Smoothies are quick and easy to prepare, you just need to know which fresh

fruits and vegetables to include. The following smoothie recipes can be used

with the action plan provided in the previous chapter – or you can simply use

these recipes for a tasty meal. In addition to the recipes listed below, you will

also find tips and suggestions for making your own smoothie recipes.

Experiment with Different Combinations of Fruits and Vegetables

As you explore these various smoothie recipes, feel free to substitute any of the

ingredients with a comparable fruit or vegetable. For example, if a recipe calls for

kale, you could replace the kale with an equal amount of spinach. If the recipe

calls for mango, you could replace with pineapple. Experiment with different

combinations of fruits and vegetables.

You should also try new fruits and vegetables that you have not tried before.

Every one to two weeks, when you go shopping for your produce, choose one

fruit or vegetable that you have not tried before. Find a way to include this fruit or

vegetable in the healthy recipes listed below or in a recipe of your own creation.

Now, on to the recipes. You will find 16 delicious smoothie recipes, all of which

can be used as a part of the Smoothie Weight Loss Action Plan.

The instructions mostly the same for all of the recipes. You will first pour any

liquids that are called for in the recipe into your blender. Then, add the fruit and

vegetables. Some fruit and vegetables will need to be peeled or chopped prior

to adding to your blender. For example, apples should be cored and peeled.

After adding the liquid and produce, add any other ingredients that may be

included, such as honey, ice, or various herbs and spices.

                  

    Blend until smooth and serve immediately. You can store leftovers in an airtight

    container, but you may need to stir the contents before serving. Some

    ingredients may require special preparation. For example, Chia seeds should be

    soaked overnight before using in a smoothie recipe.

    Day One Breakfast – Banana Oat Smoothie

    First up is the Banana Oat Smoothie. This recipe contains a good source of

    fiber and protein. The fiber from the oats and kefir will help get your digestive

    system moving. Here is the ingredients list – remember, simply combine the

    ingredients in your blender and blend until smooth:

          1 banana



          ½ cup kale



          ¼ cup rolled oats

                      

          1 tablespoon Chia seeds (soaked overnight)



          1 tablespoon almond butter



          ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract



          1 pinch of cinnamon

    Day One Lunch – Watermelon and Strawberry Smoothie

    The Watermelon and Strawberry

    Smoothie is a refreshing drink.

    Have this for lunch or during the

    middle of the day. The sugar

    provided by the strawberries and

    melon will get you through the

    afternoon without causing a sugar

    crash. Here are the ingredients

    needed for the Watermelon and

    Strawberry Smoothie:

          ¾ of a seedless watermelon



          ½ cup strawberries



          ½ cup spinach



          ½ cup plain yogurt



          1/3 cup non-dairy milk



          2 teaspoons vanilla extract



          3 ice cubes

    Day Two Breakfast – Peachy Morning Smoothie

    The Peachy Morning Smoothie is another great option for starting your day.

    The inclusion of Chia seeds, which are to be soaked overnight, adds fiber to

    this smoothie. Use the following ingredients:

                    

          2 cups of spinach



          1 peach



          2 tablespoons Chia seeds



          ½ a frozen banana



    Substituting Ingredients

    You may have noticed by now that the majority of these recipes include spinach.

    Spinach and other green vegetables are often used as a base in smoothie

                    

    recipes. They help create a thicker smoothie and provide you with essential

    vitamins and minerals. If you do not like the taste of spinach, you can replace

    with kale or any other nutritious green vegetable.

    Another ingredient that you may want to substitute is non-dairy milk. Many of

    these smoothie recipes require non-dairy milk, such as coconut, almond, or soy

    milk. If you cannot find these options, you can use regular dairy milk. Though,

    dairy milk has more fat than non-dairy milk. You could also replace the non-dairy

    milk with water.

    Create Your Own Smoothie Recipes

    Once you understand the

    basics of a standard smoothie

    recipe, it is relatively easy to

    make your own. Here are the

    components of a typical

    smoothie:

          Base



          Thickener



          Liquid



          Added Flavoring

    For the base, a vegetable is generally used, such as kale or spinach. The

    thickener is typically fresh or frozen fruit. Depending on the consistency of the

    fruit, liquid may also be needed to blend the ingredients together.

    Non-dairy milk, such as soy, coconut, and almond milk are often used as the

    liquid ingredient. Added flavoring, such as a small amount of fruit, allows you to

                        

    adjust the taste of the smoothie. Here is an example of an average smoothie

    recipe using these steps:

          Base – 1 handful of kale



          Thickener – 1 frozen banana



          Liquid – 1 cup of coconut milk



          Added Flavoring – ½ a fresh mango

    Of course, this is just the basic structure of a smoothie recipe. You can add

    as many different ingredients as you would like, to create new and original

    smoothies.
