Weightloss smoothie recipes that you can start with

Last week, I posted about ‘the whats and whatnots of weightloss smoothies’ and I promised to post weightloss smoothie recipes that I know of this week.

To prepare each smoothie recipe, place the ingredients in your smoothie (highspeed) blender. Blend for 30-45 seconds or till it is as smooth as you like. With lowspeed blender, blend everything else before the coconut oil to avoid clumping.

Feel free to vary ingredients to your preference if you wish. Every new variation you make will just be another great weightloss smoothie as long as you use the right ingredients. Enjoy!
