To lose weight quickly and effectively you need to eat a lot of fiber and protein. It's easy to get those elements at lunch and dinner, but not so much for breakfast. Sure, some type of cereals and oatmeal variations deliver some of it, but quite honestly they don't taste that great. I don't know you, but I get bored eating oatmeal every day. If I only eat cereal for breakfast I'm often hungry an hour later. I'm so excited because I found the solution with this delicious and slimming coconut breakfast smoothie.
