🔎 Important Notes on Weight Loss Claims
🚫 Unrealistic Promises: Losing 5.5 kg (12 lbs) in 3 days is highly unlikely and unhealthy—most of it would be water weight, not fat.
✅ Healthy Rate: Aim for 0.5–1 kg (1–2 lbs) per week for sustainable results.
💧 Hydration Matters: Many fat-burning drinks work primarily by keeping you hydrated, which supports weight management.
🏋️♂️ No Magic Solution: No drink alone can replace a balanced diet & exercise. These drinks support, but don’t substitute, a healthy lifestyle.
By focusing on realistic goals and wholesome habits, you can achieve lasting weight loss without relying on exaggerated claims. Stay consistent, make smart choices, and enjoy the journey! 🚀💚
