Detox For The Weight Loss

A lot of times when people hear you say the words "I am detoxing" they automatically assume you are probably doing some weird juice thing or starving yourself. Usually their response is "that is not good for you."

What if there was a way for your body to detox naturally? Which there is because I just did it for 10 days. The planning may be the hardest part but following the plan is very simple.

The first thing you have to do is figure out how many calories you need to eat and be able to lose weight(about 2 lbs a week). There are a couple websites you can use to figure out how many calories you should be eating:

myfitnesspal.com
calorieking.com

I prefer Myfitnesspal because it also tells you how much carbs, protein, fat, and fiber you should be eating.

The next step is to plan out your meals I eat 5 times a day

Breakfast
Snack
Lunch
Snack
Dinner
I sometimes drink a protein shake at night to help with cravings.. especially if I went to the gym at night.

The foods you want to pick need to be lean, clean and healthy.

 and you want to make sure you are getting enough calories, carbs, fat, protein, and fiber
planning the meals is the hard part... You really have to play around with food. Also make sure to pick food that you like eating.

Once you have designed you meal plan for a day you will eat that same plan for 10 days. After 10 days you can change out the foods.

It is not an easy process! The easy part is you don't have to put a lot of thought into what you are eating every day because you already have a plan. The hard part is sticking to your plan and fighting against your urge to eat whatever you crave.

It is very doable! Once you commit to this stay focused on it... The more focused you are on what you are eating the more in control you will feel! Trust me your body will detox.

I know this because I did it and at the end of it I lost 11 pounds and the best part is I continue eating the same way I have been but changing the food I eat.

Stay focused and be determined and you will achieve the goal you are shooting for. If you have questions or need help with this let me know...
