Detox please!

I am looking for some good detox recipes out there. Soups. smoothies. I'd like to stay as organic as possible withe recipes.

I am still losing steadily, however, incorporating certain goods back into my like has awakened the sleeping dragon and I'd like to focus on lulling her back to sleep.

I think several days of dedicated detoxing in a healthy nutrient rich way would be best.

In addition to kickstarting a detox regimine, I would like to cut back, and ultimately eliminate, caffeine. I've stocked up on my decaff green tea.

I don't know what you mean exactly by detox. I make all of my own soups using natural ingredients such as Soup bones, freshly chopped veggies, herbs grown in my yard, soaked and then boiled Beans, barley, and so on. I just make different soups out of what I have with no set recipes. I will sometimes use a recipe for something like french onion or cream of carrot, but otherwise I just add a ton of fresh veggies to whatever base I want, add herbs and spices, then eat.

I will have to admit that I have never had a smoothie. :o

recipes that will safely inspire elimination. Flush out the system.

I've read it can help get one through sugar/carb withdrawal.

Hey Amanda, Oh She Glows (vegan lifestyle blog) has a few detox smoothie/juice recipes. I can't figure out how to put a link in here from the mobile app, but the one I have in mind was posted on 9/3 (if you go to the "Popular" tab it should pop up on the first page so you don't have to scroll through). She sources a book in her post, "Healing Foods," that may have some good ideas too? Let me know if you try it!

Good luck tomorrow Amanda.

Are you going to be juicing? Or a combo of things?

I've got a list of various detox soup recipes that are designed to get things moving and help one get past the carb/sugar withdrawal.

Many complain during the Protein shake phase of gagging on shakes but it was so much easier to make good decisions when we had no options!!! Lol

Yes how's it going today?

So far, so good. I made a large pot of the WW cabbage/veggie Soup and portioned it out. I have my fresh fruits and veggies packed.

I found an Asian inspired WW veggie soup I plan to make and portion out. I'm hoping this will help break the easy carb/slider behavior that was creeping back into my life.

It is not a problem yet, but it can/will be if I don't nip it in the bud now.
