These healthy valentine’s day recipes will help you indulge without creating any additional bulge on your body!
Treating yourself on special occasions is fun at the time, but very soon, you end up feeling bloated, guilty and not so happy with yourself.
Especially with love in the air, who wants to look bloated on a romantic occasion? You want to look at your very best right?
So why not make some tasty recipes that just so happen to be healthy at the same time?
Also when it comes to treating your loved one with delicious recipes, why would you want to give them unhealthy junk that will contribute to poor health? If the food tastes good, they won’t notice that the recipe isn’t made with refined sugar, white flour, dairy and processed chemicals.

Hi Katherine,I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.
I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!
I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!
I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.
I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.
I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.
I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!
What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.
I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie
