Morning detox

There is no secret that getting one's body back after pregnancy is tough. And that's even if you were one of the lucky ones who barely gained weight/ was back into pre-pregnancy pants when leaving the hospital like I was. Of course I think I have had it easier than alot of people due to genetics and breastfeeding but I still struggle with the extra layer of fat on my stomach, and my newly wide(r) body that has taken this opportunity to fully spread out. Here is where I am at now:

These photos are somewhat misleading. My extra layer of belly fat is really only apparent when I sit down or wear tight shirts. Because of that, I've been sticking to loser fitting tops. As for my wideness, I still have 1.5inches on my waist, and 1 inch on my hips to lose. Along with exercising and eating a high protein, high fiber, moderate carb diet I also am trying morning detoxes. 

Per 24ounces:

3 Mint leaves

1/4 cucumber

1/2 lemon

Let soak overnight

This drink helps reduce bloating and naturally flushes out your system. Trust me ;)

Give it a try and let me know what you think!!
