Blog to Lose

No matter the plan... we all Blog to Lose!

In addition to my daily lemon water habit, I also drink at least one green smoothie a day. At first, it was a very strong taste to get down. Now I look forward to it everyday. Somewhere I read that the fruit and veggie daily intake requirement has been increased to 10! Drinking my smoothie / juice at least gets me halfway to my daily goal. It also has a weird side effect; I am constantly peeing!!! Maybe drinking such a high concentration of veggies acts like a diuretic; who knows.

Here are some of the recipes I use. I might start venturing off the path and making my own experiments but it has only been a week or so...baby steps, baby steps...

If it has green tea in it, that might explain it. :)

I might barf if I drank that smoothie.  Does it taste like ground up veggies or is it good?

It depends on what you use. Technically some of them call for a juicer, which I don't have. I think a juicer makes it more smoother. I use a ninja and now it just tastes bland. However, that could attributed to me putting more pineapple in them to make them go down. It is trial and error. But when I first made it, they tasted like ground up veggies - blech!
