Homemade drinks to lose belly fat? I don’t think so
I have written about this before and I will continue to do so
Because of the misinformation and stuff out there that isn’t true
And home remedy drinks or teas breaking down fat as one of them
There are no homemade drinks to lose belly fat
They don’t exist.
You can’t drink water loaded with lemon juice and lime zest with honey,
And expect it to cause weight loss.
It won’t happen
It always comes back to the calories you are eating and intaking.
So, if you are having the same amount of food every day,
And you are moving the same amount every day.
And you start taking this drink,
You won’t lose weight.
Why?
Again, because it comes to the caloric intake you have every day and the energy you expend.
So just taking this drink will not cause you to burn fat.
The drink itself is not a magical power that you can ingest that moves within the body
Which then directly targets body fat and melts it away.
That would be amazing if that was the case.
But it just isn’t true.
Now let’s say you replace a meal with a drink such as this every day for the next 7 days or more?
Then you will most likely lose weight.
Because you have now dropped your calories and are technically in a deficit.
But just know it wasn’t the drink itself that caused weight loss.
It is the reduction in calories.
This brings me back to my original point of it coming back to calories in versus calories out.
Now let’s look at it from a different perspective.
Let’s say you eat the same meals in a day.
And now you started taking this supposed weight loss drink
and you also start to exercise three times a week.
You weightlift three times a week and add in 20 minutes of walking,
Guess what,
You are going to lose some weight.
And again, it’s not because you were taking that supposed weight loss drink.
It's because of the exercise.
Even though your eating stayed the same,
Because you have a higher weekly energy output through exercise.
You will begin to lose weight.
And even if you followed those protocols and didn’t have the drink,
You still would have lost weight.
So, what I want everyone to understand is that these drinks don’t do anything for you.
They will do nothing more for you than what healthy eating will give you.
Yet I have come across multiple people throughout my fitness career
Get swayed into buying this stuff or following nonsense online
Just because they want to lose weight and they figure this easy to do.
And I’m here to tell you that if it sounds too good to be true,
It’s because it is.
You need to eat in a caloric deficit,
Whether that’s through just eating low-calorie dense foods
Or just making complete healthier choices because you,
Don’t have a great nutrition regimen.
But your eating is a major part.
We can’t eat like garbage and think these teas or drinks will,
Do the work that we are supposed to be doing for ourselves.
It comes down to a lifestyle change.
You must stay committed if you want to see results.
And realize that if you want to see the change you want to have,
It's going to require you to put in a bit more work than just have a fit tea or drink.
And realize that Homemade drinks to lose belly fat just don’t exist.

Is it possible to lean out during the holidays? 💪🏼💁🏼 Well sure! Of course it is! . . But WILL I do it, is the question? I want to diet down for a #photoshoot in January, HOWEVER, I want to enjoy the #holidays with my family, and of stress over #calories, or #macros, etc. . . Personally, I am an #allornothingkindagirl. I'm this way in ALL walks of life, not just diet and nutrition. Either I'm ALL in, or I'm 100% out. There is no in between with me. #thatshowiroll . . I know how to #dropweight for shows and #photoshoot(s) quickly and naturally; HOWEVER, I now struggle with #longtermsuccess ever since my first show. . . Anyone else the same way? What's your best or favorite method to #stayingontrack through the #holidays? We're all in this together. #Transparency, #accountability, and #CONSISTENCY are key for #success. I'm all good with the first two, as I am unabashedly me always, but because of that, I can admit I struggle with the latter. How do you #stayconsistent? Prior to competing, I was a #pro. Now I feel like I need to reinvent the wheel. 😳😁 #iliketomakethingscomplicated . . Let's hear from you. Are you a #macrocounter #iifym? Or a #caloriecounter? Or #paleo? #Keto? Do you have success with #eatingintuitively? How about #intermittentfasting? What works for you? . . . #cherylnormanfit #operationleanout #gymandtonic #lululemon #nike #ootd #diet #nutrition #healthyeating #cleaneating #burnfat #loseseight #everyBODYsdifferent #holidaygameplan
