I've used your recipe as I was already using these ingredients alongside with other ingredients for a weight loss plan... I found your recipe as I researched. In my findings prior to seeing your recipe pineapple and ginger has been really successful. I have another handful of ingredients that I add. I don't use oat or almond milk though.
I'm not over weight but have the classic belly fat and wobbly underarms and with everyday easy standing exercises and stretching I feel better also can see that my body fat has reduced, others have noticed and didn't know I was doing this. I don't have scales as that's not how I want to think about my weight loss plan. Hope this is helpful to someone and thank you for doing what you do as its a healthy and enlightening way to start your day....
