You may have heard or seen how good smoothies can be when you're trying to lose weight, but you might not know that not ALL smoothies will help you shed the pounds. Some smoothies are more sinful than good, for example, a lot of recipes and store-bought options are packed with sugar, fat, and calories. So I've created a guide of the best 10 recipes for weight loss smoothies.

But firstly, why are smoothies so good for weight loss?

How Do Smoothies Help You Lose Weight?

Having a smoothie instead of your breakfast or instead of lunch is popular and sometimes quite trendy. But there are actually benefits of having smoothies if you're trying to lose weight. Here is why:

Weight Loss Smoothies Control Your Hunger

When you control your hunger, you control weight loss. Most importantly, a good weight loss smoothie should be able to fill you up by using ingredients that are known to keep you feeling satisfied for hours.

Smoothies Are Convenient & Save Time

Rather than spending time making a big breakfast, you can make a smoothie quickly in a blender and enjoy it on the go. You’ll still get all the nutrients you need and you’ll save time and money. You can pack them full of fruits and veggies without having to spend any time meal prepping.

With The Right Recipe Smoothies Taste Delicious

All of us have tried some type of weight loss product that tastes disgusting. But smoothies can taste great because you can make them just the way you like them. Use your favourite ingredients, just make sure they aren't loaded with unhealthy fats and sugars. Try berries for a healthier sweet taste.
