Hello my dear readers,

If you want to lose a few pounds all you have to do is…WHAT?

You need to make the MINESTRONE SOUP.

Again…WHATTTT?

Yes, you need to make the minestrone soup. Have you heard of this before?

I did not until I read the Women’s World from October 30, 2017.

According to that story you need to eat this soup for six days and you can lose about 11 lbs.

Can you say NO?

I can’t. Specifically, because I love the Minestrone soup. It is my favorite soup.

Italian, delicious soup of your dreams to reach your weight dreams.

So, let’s do it. Let’s do it together.
