Weight Loss Soup
There are many recipes in town all claiming that they help weight loss. This recipe I have tried myself and by my mom, we both lost weight, about 10% of our original weights with just a seven day diet plan! Take that! Just seven days! Only drawback is that this weight loss is so immediate that it can be back soon as well! But it is a big motivation for beginners!
The complete diet plan will appear in another post. This soup can replace the main course of one of your daily meals and it will help maintain the weight loss.
