Weight Loss Guide
Soup Diet Recipes can help you lose weight. The best part about this soup diet weight loss program is that it’s a healthy and exciting lifestyle. You get to choose the soup diet recipes you want to eat. You will begin to look forward to waking up every morning. You’ll be excited to start your day knowing that you are doing something good for your body, mind, and spirit. Here are a few guidelines to help you on your weight loss journey:
1. Form both of your hands into the shape of a ball. Each day, eat three to six meals the size of that ball. This portion size should be based on solid foods and should typically exclude any liquids like the liquid in your soups and beverages unless it is a thick, pureed, or cream based soup or a high calorie beverage.
2. Eat a balanced diet. Soup diet recipes are perfect for this because each recipe includes a nutritious variety of ingredients. Also, if you plan ahead, you can have a different soup diet recipe at every meal. You’ll want to be sure to do this on a somewhat regular basis in order to get enough variety in your diet, so be prepared to make, freeze, and reheat soups! For even more added variety, you can also eat small amounts of additional foods to compliment the soup, like bread and salad – just make sure to factor it into your ball-shaped portion size!
3. If you love sweets, try to change your way of thinking about dessert. When your brain tells you that you want something sweet after your meals or in the morning, think outside the box. You would be surprised at the options you have to satisfy this trigger. Always try to have an all natural sparkling soda available cold and ready to drink in the refrigerator and/or in your lunch box. There are a few on the market that taste incredible and won’t add a lot of calories like a baked good or traditional dessert would. Remember that these sparkling sodas and most of your sweet foods should be fruit-based without added sugar.
4. Listen to what your body is telling you. If you are feeling anxious, try eating a soup diet recipe with lots of greens, like kale, collard greens, or spinach. Within half and hour you will start to feel the stress melt away. If this doesn’t help, consider trying a Vitamin B12 patch. Some people have difficulty absorbing B12 in their intestines, so they need to absorb it through the skin. Vegans need to supplement with B12 because plant-based foods no longer contain natural B12 due to modern agricultural practices. All of the recipes on this website are vegan, so if you plan to be on the diet for a long time, be sure to supplement. The patches are the best way to supplement because you can rest assured that your body is indeed absorbing the B12. You’ll feel less anxious and irritable and you’ll love the boost of energy they’ll give you!
5. Eat no later than two hours before you go to sleep.
6. Exercise for at least 30 minutes each day.
These tips should help you to kick-start your weight loss. Good luck on your weight-loss journey – we’ll be there with you every step of the way!
