I’m on day 3 of my week of smoothies and shakes. I’m down 3 pounds and I feel great. My energy is high, I haven’t been binging, I like it. I do admit, I miss food. I think it wouldn’t be so bad if I were replacing only 1 of my meals instead of 2 of my meals per day, but I think this is essential right now for helping me curb the binges.
I have several flavors of Shakeology shakes from the samples I got. I admit, I didn’t like the first 2 flavors I tried. I drank them anyway because those were my allotted meals for those days, but it was hard getting them down. Today, I had the vanilla, which was much better. Then, I had the idea to put it in the blender with some ice and peanut butter and OH. MY. WORD. It was sooo delicious! It was like a peanut butter ice cream shake. That I got to eat for lunch! Tonight, Strawberry, kiwi, yogurt smoothie for dinner. And, of course, my workout routine somewhere in there.
I love what you do with words. It is amazing how you shape your emotions and expressions into words.
I’d be glad if you could visit and review my blog too. Thanks xx

I always liked my vanilla shakeology with a half frozen banana and the low calorie (30 per serving) almond milk blended!

My beach body coach actually suggested that, but I can’t stand banana.

That’s too bad 😦 the frozen banana (instead of ice) gives it an ice cream consistency that is quite satisfying.

That makes sense. I do have a bunch of other frozen fruit in the fridge, maybe I’ll try that next time.

I do a smoothie every AM. a cup each of FF Greek yogurt and frozen berries, a frozen banana, 1/2 T chia seeds and 3 cups of mixed greens. (This is for 2 people) It is really good and no frankenfood. 🙂

Chia seeds, I think that’s what my smoothies are missing.
