23 Smoothies That Aid in Weight Loss ...

Smoothies that aid in weight loss offer a delicious, nutritious way to lose weight. Plus, do you know how many weight loss smoothies there are? I had no idea that there were so many – and that so many of them were so delicious! For me, this is like a revelation, because I have a confession to make: I have a total sweet tooth. That’s where I usually fail when I try to lose weight. By implementing smoothies instead, which are filling and healthy, I’m hoping I can conquer my love of sweets – or at least send them in another direction. Maybe these smoothies that help with weight loss can help you, too!

1. Peanut Butter and Banana Smoothie

There are a lot of surprising smoothies that aid in weight loss, and this is one of them. I wouldn’t have believed that a peanut butter based smoothie could be all that healthy, but the protein is what makes it great. This smoothie is ideal as a replacement meal. Thanks to the peanut butter, you get plenty of protein, and all together, it’s like a peanut butter and banana sandwich!

Recipe:

Half of one banana
1/2 cup smooth or crunchy low-fat peanut butter
1/2 cup of non-fat milk
6 ice cubes
1 tablespoon of chocolate whey protein powder
Place all of the ingredients into the blender and blend until smooth.

I use frozen blueberries and peaches with a banana, non fat yogurt, vanilla soy protein and a little water. It’s my breakfast in the morning, or i leave the protein powder out and have it ... See more as a snack later in the day. I’ve lost 59 pounds since August, and this is my “go-to” yummy sweet!!

  I don’t know where the smoothie recipe is from…. But you can always modify the recipe to suit your taste and nutritional needs. I’m sorry if I can’t be of more help.

  I use a tablespoon of peanut butter and a whole banana. The first time I made it I used a whole banana and 2 Tblspns of peanut butter and it was WAY too peanut ... See more buttery for my taste. Half cup is wayyyy tooo much in my opinion.

I like to freeze fruit and use that instead of ice. Works like a charm.

think you should list the calorie count in all of these and the PB one does not have PB as a ingredident. You might want to add that.

  Hello. I have forwarded your suggestion to an editor. We will definitely see what we can do about including a calorie count. Oh, and we’ve already added peanut butter as an ingredient.
  
  Thanks for ... See more joining us on AWS!
  
  Edit: We have decided not to add calorie counts for the smoothies. Everyone makes them differently so we can’t put an exact calorie count. It would still be an approximation.

  A half a cup of pb would be very high in calories…

PB 2 is so much better for you in a smoothie than all natural PB. It only has 45 calories for 2TBLS too.

  Hi there. Why is peanut butter better in a smoothie than by itself?
  
  I hope to hear from you again!

  PB2 is a powdered form of peanut butter. That’s what they’re referring to.

You can try freezing bananas first for smoothies so you don’t have add ice. I put flax in mine, too.

  I’m not entirely sure, but you could drink these smoothies instead of eating other unhealthy things. Some people also use smoothies as meal replacements. ... See more But like I said, I am not entirely sure how this works. Anyone out there with a better explanation?

  Only if you use them as a meal replacemet do they act as an weight loss aid. They taste good and help with sugar cravings. That is why smoothies have gotten so popular ... See more in the last few years. You can’t eat all you want and have smoothies you will gain weight. You have to be smart.

Smoothies are truly a staple in our family eating, especially in the summer time! Our favorite is green smoothie is with spinach, fresh pineapple, oranges OR grapes, slice of lime, celery, water & ice. ... See more Here is a link to some tried and true smoothies. http://pinkcookieswithsprinkles.blogspot.com/search/label/smoothies

I also agree that making your homemade yogurt could be used instead of using protein powder and homemade yogurt is SO easy to make. I make it in the oven…. http://pinkcookieswithsprinkles.blogspot.com/2011/07/food-storage-makes-delicious-yogurt.html

Here is a great peanut butter/chocolate smoothie that was such a hit! (you could substitute bananas for the sugar). http://pinkcookieswithsprinkles.blogspot.com/2011/07/powdered-milk-plus-cocoa-powder-makes.html

Anywho, love your site and helpful, healthy tips…keep up the great work! Have a great day!
