know what you are putting into your smoothie. If you are putting sugar, you know that you are not overloading your smoothie recipe with it.
To make your own green smoothie is easy because you only need to start buying the right tools and equipments needed. Then, you need to gather all the necessary ingredients and of course, for beginners, gather and collect green smoothie recipes for weight loss like the recipe mentioned above so you can be guided.
2. Do not overdo your weight loss goal through green smoothies. This refers to setting limits to yourself even if you are already drinking green smoothies to help you lose weight. In other words, do not entrust your weight loss goal highly on drinking green smoothies to the point that you are already depriving your body of other essential nutrients form other food sources and overloading your body with the leafy greens to the point that side effects are slowly arising already.
To do this, avoid green smoothie fasting as much as possible or if you are going for green smoothie fasting, make sure that it is not for a longer period of time as this may cause harm to your body instead of help in weight loss. Instead of considering green smoothie recipes as main diet and weight loss regime, consider it as a better aid to your current diet and weight loss program.
3. Limit your sugar usage and use milk properly. This refers to putting sugar and milk into your green smoothie. Green smoothies usually are sweet drinks and creamy because of milk. However, if you are trying to lose weight through these drinks, it is a must to know how you are going to use these two ingredients properly when making your own green smoothie. It is important to limit usage of sugar and milk when making green smoothies because these two ingredients are known to contribute to weight gain and they could hamper your weight loss success.
So, to do this, put only a small amount of sugar in your smoothie or better yet, use other alternatives to sweeten your smoothie that is low in calories than sugar such as maple syrup and even fruits. When it comes to using milk and dairy products, this is not banned for weight loss as long as you are using non-fat dairy products. This will ensure that your green smoothie is a lot effective.
4. Consult the doctor. This refers to visiting the doctor first before trying to lose weight with green smoothie recipes. This is very essential because you may have serious conditions that could oppose with green smoothies and other ingredients in your smoothies. Consulting the doctor first and having your health checked will ensure that when you are making your smoothie, you also know what the right ingredients to use are. This will also ensure that green smoothies for weight loss are safer and healthier especially if they are recommended by health professionals.
5. Do not think that green smoothies are quick fixes for weight loss. This refers to conditioning your mind the right way when it comes to green smoothies for weight loss. Remember that green smoothies are not fad diets that promise you quick weight loss. Rather, green smoothies are healthy diets that ensure you will lose weight naturally, gradually and effectively. When you know what to expect from green smoothies in terms of weight loss, you won’t get the wrong notion and end up disappointed in the end.
6. Experiment green smoothie combinations. This refers to not sticking only to what the recipes are directing you when whipping up green smoothies but in being more creative in thinking of ways on how you can make your green smoothies for weight loss a lot tastier and more interesting rather than being boring and bitter in taste. When you experiment combinations, you become more successful in making your green smoothie tastier since weight loss need not be something that could make you suffer in terms of taste.
To do this, you can combine greens with fruits that you love that taste great. This will cover up the taste of the greens and make you enjoy your green smoothie more. You can also experiment your own greens combination to make your green smoothie more effective and healthier such as mixing them with other veggies.
7. Combine green smoothies with exercise and healthy lifestyle. Even if you are already drinking green smoothies to lose weight, it does not mean that you will no longer exercise or have a healthy lifestyle. Even if you are drinking green smoothies daily if you are not exercising and you are still living an unhealthy lifestyle, weight loss may still be ineffective. With this, make your green smoothies more effective by doing even the simplest exercises daily as well as avoiding alcohol, smoking and stress. This way, as you are getting rid of fats and toxins from the body, you are ensuring that your lifestyle is not adding or contributing to toxins as well.
8. Choose a variety of greens for your weight loss green smoothie. This refers to not sticking to only a single type of green leafy veggie to blend but choosing a variety daily. This is because in a day, if you go overboard by consuming a high amount of the same greens, you might end up poisoned. For instance, beet greens are healthy but if too much of it is consumed in a day, it could be toxic already. So, make it a point to gather a variety of greens so you can use them for your green smoothie alternately.
Conclusion
Weight loss is serious issue especially for those who have been trying to lose weight for many years but still failing. And since weight loss is not a laughing matter, it should be dealt with or managed well so that it won’t cause your health harm. In other words, weight loss does not have to mean health-loss. Rather, weight loss should be done healthily so that even if you are trying to lose weight, you wouldn’t look sickly but fit and glowing with life.
With this, green smoothie recipes are considered perfect for weight loss as they do not only successfully burn fats but they also equip the body with the necessary nutrients for it to be fit and healthy.

The Best Green Smoothie Ingredients to Make Green Smoothies for Weight Loss Karen Glaser
Introduction
You may be wondering what the difference is between regular smoothies and "green" smoothies. The answer is not a whole lot, other than what makes up the "green." Green in this case stands for vegetables. When someone refers to a "Green Smoothie" they are referring to a smoothie that contains at least one vegetable among the juicy fruits. Drinking a "green smoothie" means you are receiving your vegetables and fruits and depending on the recipe, proteins too. The vegetables make the smoothies highly nutritious, especially when using green leafy vegetables (or even carrots, which are included in a few of the many recipes within this book.) The point of placing these vegetables within the guise of a smoothie is that the fruits overpower the taste of the vegetables. If a person does not like the flavor of vegetables, chances are they will never even taste them in a green smoothie, though the color of the smoothie will certainly show it.
A green smoothie will provide a vegetable in its most nutritious state, raw. Raw vegetables contain high levels of valuable nutrients that are often lost in the cooking process. When you consume a green smoothie, you are consuming a raw vegetable or two as well as the raw fruits to make this a powerful drink packed with high levels of beneficial nutrients. Making your own green smoothies ensures you know exactly what you are getting, whereas using a pre-packages smoothie mix, you may be getting ingredients you cannot even pronounce, much less even need.
