Jillian Michaels’ Weight Loss Detox Water

Ok, let’s be real. There are a lot of gimmicky diets out there that promise easy and instant weight loss, but the only real way to lose weight is through a lot of careful planning in your diet and activity level.


Like a lot of you, I eat and drink out of boredom. I’ll take any excuse I can to leave my desk for a few minutes, and sometimes that excuse is that I NEED a snack. No, I’m not hungry, I would just really like a bag of potato chips or bowl of ice cream, or both.

I’m sure that you’ve heard that water alone can help suppress your appetite if you drink a ton of it, but that’s, um… boring! I want something with at least a little bit of flavor. And, that’s when I decided to go on a hunt for a good detox water with the added benefits of weight loss.

Dear Stomach, you’re bored… not hungry! Now leave me alone.

Cleansing detox water recipe to lose weight fast! These 3 ingredients are natural diuretics, helping you shed the bloat and excess water. They also assist in fat burning and appetite suppression! Instrupix.com
I stumbled across this detox water recipe from Jillian Michaels, and it caught my attention. I already knew that all 3 of these ingredients were natural diuretics, and the combination of them actually sounded pretty tasty. And, they are!

Not only does this cleansing water help with water retention and bloating, drinking an entire pitcher throughout the day somehow suppresses my appetite (maybe because I’m so full of water!?). Either way, just having that goal of drinking the entire pitcher keeps me from wanting to snack. I feel about 10 pounds lighter after an entire week of drinking it.

This detox drink is perfect the week before a beach vacation or anytime you’re wanting to slim down.

Detox Water Recipe To Lose Weight Fast! (3 Ingredients + Water)
Ingredients
  • Up to 60 ounces purified water (enough to fill a pitcher)
  • 1 tbsp 100% cranberry juice (not cranberry juice cocktail)
  • 2 tbsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 organic dandelion root tea bag
Instructions

  1. Brew the tea bag in about 8 ounces of hot water, and let it cool to room temperature. 

  2. Fill a large pitcher (60 ounce or larger) with the cooled tea, cranberry juice and lemon juice. Fill the remainder of the pitcher with water, and refrigerate. 

  3. Drink the entire pitcher throughout the day for up to 7 days (you will make a new pitcher every day). I like to make mine the night before so that it's chilled and ready to go the next morning. I also like to add in a few fresh cranberries and lemon slices because it makes it feel like a treat!

Recipe Notes
  1. Cranberry juice is loaded with antioxidants, and helps flush your kidneys and intestines from toxins.
  2. Lemons support normal digestion, kidney and liver function, and are high in vitamin C.
  3. Dandelion root tea improves digestion, aids in weight loss, purifies your blood, eases bloating and achy joints, and is high in vitamins and minerals.

The Complete High Protein Food List {printable with calories}

Eating sufficient protein can help with weight loss while preserving muscle.  Print this high protein food list for your fridge or notebook today and get new ideas for dietary protein. But, I thought a more comprehensive list would be fun to make, organized by how many grams of protein you get when weights are equal (100 grams).  What is protein? Proteins are large molecules found in living cells. Proteins are like building blocks to build tissues in the human body, such as muscle tissue, bones, blood, and even hormones. Proteins function as enzymes, antibodies, and they assist in maintaining fluid balance. Why protein should be included in your diet While our bodies are capable of making certain amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, there are are others, called essential amino acids, that can only be obtained through food. Because our bodies are constantly turning over tissue, new proteins are needed to replace degraded existing proteins. Cell growth, repair, and main...

20 High Protein Casserole Recipes

  I love casseroles, as I’m sure many of you do too. There’s something that is oh, so comforting about them. What’s more, they can feed a crowd. Casseroles also good for meal prepping- bake once, and you have leftovers you can pack for lunch or even dinner. Also, most casseroles use only one dish. So, you don’t have a ton of cleanup at the end. But most casseroles contain a ton of refined carbs and very little protein. This is a problem because when you don’t have enough protein, you don’t feel full…and that dessert seems so tempting. I have the perfect solution: High Protein Casseroles. Since they’re high in protein, they’re filling. So, you don’t end up having extra servings or two. Today, I’m sharing 20 High Protein Casserole Recipes. They’re not only high in protein but sure to delight your taste buds. So, what are you waiting for? Let’s make some casseroles! 1.

20 High Protein Meal Prep Ideas

  Are you trying to lose weight? Protein is the key. When you lose weight, you also lose muscle mass. And that’s when you get saggy, loose skin- yuck! By adding more protein to your diet, you increase your muscle mass. And in turn, you look better in your clothes. Adding more protein can also help you lose weight in the first place too. That’s because of all the macronutrients (protein, carbs, fat), protein helps you feel full the most. And when you feel full, you’re less likely to binge on unhealthy foods. Like that bag of chips that is calling your name. But we all live busy lives, and eating high protein meals can fall by the wayside. So, it’s a good idea to meal prep, so you have no excuse not to eat high protein meals. Today, I’m sharing 20 high protein meal prep ideas. They’re not only high in protein but delicious as well. 1.
