11 Beauty Detox Weight Loss Tips!

When I travel, I don’t worry too much if I go off the raw food and my normal diet, because I think it’s important to be flexible and just enjoy traveling. But once I’m home, it’s time to detox and get back on track.

Below, I answer an email from one of my followers that many of us women could benefit from. So I decided to post my response back to her below. My hope is to inspire all of you Beauties to follow the same tips so you can feel beautiful from the inside out.

Hi Kimberly,

I have gained weight over the past few years and plan on incorporating raw food and yoga into my life to help get the weight off. Any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated.

My Advice

As for the weight gain, we’ve all been there! I used to count calories, fat grams, and obsess about my weight until I properly understood nutrition and how food affects the body. I was so miserable! I was never quite happy with my weight and it was often in my mind.

 

11 Beauty Detox Weight Loss Tips Infographic outlining each tip within the article

 

I feel so grateful and blessed to have come across some great knowledge of nutrition. Here are my first eleven easy weight loss/maintenance tips that I’d love to share with you:

1. Incorporate More Raw Food

Yes, absolutely incorporate more and more raw food, which is easy to digest, is nutritionally dense and keeps you full and healthy. The basis of the raw diet is greens, so definitely check out my easy green smoothie recipe, and start trying to have one every day for breakfast or lunch.

2. Avoid All Dairy Products

Dairy is pasteurized and very difficult to digest and break down- using up a lot of our precious enzymes. It is also mucus and acid-forming. It’s my personal experience that it is very hard to lose weight when consuming dairy.

3. Avoid All “Fake” Sugars

Splenda, Sweet ‘n Low, Equal, etc. These are very hard for your body to recognize and break down. 0-calorie does NOT mean it is healthy.

4. Stay Hydrated

Drink lots of water 20 minutes on either side of meals, but drink MINIMALLY with meals (so as not to dilute the digestive enzymes).

5. Practice Yoga 

Besides the deeper spiritual and mental benefits, I have personally found Yoga to be the most rewarding and beneficial physical exercise. Routines are fast-paced and can get your heart rate going. You will also get toned and your muscles will be stronger

6. Food Combinations Matter

If you are going to eat cooked food, don’t combine protein with starches. Instead combine protein with greens, like salads or sides of veggies. Proteins and starches together are really hard to break down. For example- if you are going to eat fish, eat it with a salad or a side of spinach. Sushi- with the combination of fish and rice, is very hard on the system.

I used to never think about food combining. But when foods are combined well and digestion is easy, minerals are more easily absorbed and toxic waste can easily leave the body. When the opposite is true, backup occurs and this is usually coupled with weight gain and/or difficulty in letting the excess weight go.

7. Avoid All Soda

Avoid it all, especially diet colas. It’s highly acidic and deprives you of your vitamin B and minerals.

8. Try To Consume 1-3 Lemons Every Day

You can squeeze them over salads, in water, etc. Lemon helps regenerate and support your liver by benefiting bile formation. Since your liver is your main fat-burning organ, lemon, therefore, promotes optimal fat metabolism.

9. Don’t Eat Fruit For Dessert After You Eat A Cooked Food

The simple sugars in fruit break down much faster than the denser cooked food, and will cause backup and fermentation in your digestive system (See #6).

10. Chew Really Well

Be a slow eater. It’s important to liquify your food with adequate chewing. Not only will you be able to extract more nutrients from your food, but you will feel full before you’ve overeaten.

11. Eat Fibrous Filling Salads For Dinner

Try my hearty and nutritionally super dense kale salad recipe, which I eat for dinner several nights a week. It is so satisfying and delicious.

PRO TIP: Balance your digestive system and get the most out of your food by incorporating digestive enzymes and probiotics to your daily routine.

Start today

Try a wide variety of foods so you don’t get bored- I’ll keep posting more recipes too. Once you get over the hump, you’ll feel great and your cravings for certain foods will be less and less. Good luck and let me know if you have any questions about these 11 tips.

All my best,

Kimberly

Progress not perfection! 😉

    Hey Kimberly,
    Thank you for posting the information. It is defintely a lot to take in but good information that I will try to follow. I also want to let you know that looking at your pictures are very inspiring! I noticed that you indicate that you will be posting a video of yoga. However, is there anything else that you suggest in if a person is interested in starting yoga. A good yoga video? Also, I have been using the Solution and I have enjoy using it. However, I have several questions regarding it. Is there an email I can write to regarding my questions? Thank You!

      Wendy,
      A great yoga website is http://www.myyogaonline.com. You can stream or download videos there. It’s great if you don’t have time to go to a class or like me are someone that lives somewhere where there are no classes like the middle of the Atacama desert.

      P.S. People never take the U.S.A for granted. 🙂

    These are fantastic guidelines. Thank you for sharing! This is certainly helpful to remember during the holidays when there’s so much sugary and rich food going around.

    Many many thanks! Your blog is outstanding.

    Hi Wendy,

    Yes, it’s a lot of info to digest at once. Many of them go together- like on good food combining. Maybe try incorporating one or a few of them at a time if it’s a bit overwhelming!

    I’m actually not posting a video of yoga but am producing a full yoga video. To be done in Jan. or so! 🙂

    Yes, please feel free to email me at: kimberly@envision-beauty.com.

    All my best,
    Kimberly

      Hi Donna,
      Yoga is great especially when practiced 3 times a week or more. I like walking too, because it is non-shocking and natural. Also bouncing on a trampoline is great for the lymph system!
      All my best,
      Kimberly

    You mention not eating fruit after a meal. Does that apply to denser fruits like say… dried organic figs/dates or a banana? Waiting about an hour after dinner (dinner of course being your scrumptious and hearty Kale salad)?

      kimberlysnyder on April 12, 2010 at 2:51 pm

      Dried fruits are definitely okay after dinner. Bananas don’t contain much water so they are borderline- okay after the kale salad though since it greens and avocados. Other fruits are better in the morning. 🙂

    Hi Kimberly!

    I am the poster-girl for yo yo dieting. I have tried very diet and supplement known to man, but I have trouble keeping the weight off. After 10 years of struggling with my weight I have finally found an exercise regimen I can stick and it’s yoga! I’m currently doing Vinyasa yoga, but I am looking into switching to Bikram. Is there a particular one you would recommend? Or do you think any type of yoga is great? I’m getting married in May of 2012 and am extremely anxious about it. I still have time to get in better shape and it would really help if you could maybe point me in the right direction. I’m waiting for your book to come in the mail and hopefully change my eating habits. Your body is amazing and although I don’t think I could ever look like you I would sure like to try to look the best that I’ve ever looked for my wedding. Thank you!

    Kimberly,

    I have read your book and have been in the first stage for 3 1/2 weeks. I feel much, much better…lots of energy, but I am not dropping weight like I thought I would. The first week I lost 3lbs but nothing since then. I’m exercising at least 4-5x week…walking, 30 minute cardio combined with weights. I just started a running program too. They are not intense workouts, yet :), just what I can handle! Yes, I have cheated, but VERY minimally. I have 23 lbs left to lose and am most concerned about reducing the extra weight on my midsection. Help!

    So, I’m currently in the proess of losing weight, (the healthy way), and I was wondering if it’s okay to have 1 tablespoon of peanut butter every 2-3 days? That’s my number one craving. I don’t want it to affect my goal. For my exercise routine, I run 2-3 miles a day 🙂 Your help is much appreciated.

    I want to express some thanks to the writer for rescuing me from this instance.

    Right after looking throughout the world wide web and seeing notions which were not pleasant, I
    thought my life was well over. Living minus the answers to the issues you’ve resolved
    through your good article content is a serious case,
    as well as the ones which could have in a wrong way damaged my entire career if I hadn’t discovered the website.
    The natural talent and kindness in taking care of all areas was helpful.
    I’m not sure what I would’ve done if I had not encountered such a subject like this.
    I can now look ahead to my future. Thanks very much for your reliable and amazing guide.
    I won’t be reluctant to refer your web blog to anybody who desires support about this problem.

    I love that you’re promoting detox weight loss and recipes. I use tea and is very beneficial if you add it to exercise and a good diet of clean eating. Antioxidants are a good way to detoxify the liver and then comes the rest of your body. I do this tea… http://bit.ly/2uEDbdQ …and eat very clean with 30 minutes a day cardio and I am feeling great. Thanks for your blog and caring for others health.
