Greens for Wellness & Weightloss





Eat Greens. More Raw than Cooked. 


If all of your weight loss efforts have proven unsuccessful, try a high-raw green diet for 3, 7, 14, 21, or 30 days.

Of the 60lbs I've lost on my 100lbs down journey, 30lbs melted in 40 days last year when I ate a high-raw greens diet.

Here is a plan I recommend for optimal healing and detoxing - not to mention a shredded waistline.

Note: I eat my greens RAW - no dressing of any kind, however, if you choose to make your own dressings, I will include a link below.

Day 1
Breakfast: Green smoothie (2c of spinach, 1 banana, 1/2c berries - your choice)

Lunch: Bowl of raw greens (1 or 2 sliced cucumber(s), 1 handful of each of the following: broccoli, spinach, and kale,1 bell pepper, and 3 celery ribs)

Dinner: Same greens for lunch - may increase servings

Exercise: Walk for two hours on the treadmill.
