smoothies

[Guest guest]

I make smoothies everyday and don't have leftovers. I use about six/seven ice

cubes, about a cup of milk, two scoops of my protein and fruit (1 banana or

about 7 or so strawberries). I put in a dash of vanilla it kinda cuts the funny

taste but ONLY a dash.

That will make a little more than one big glass. Good Luck.

Smoothies, Shakes, Boost, Ensure, Coffee Colotas. etc

ALL go through me like greased lightening. I mean in less than 30 minutes.

So liquid drinks are out of the question: #1: I can't be more than 10 feet

from the Loo, and #2:

I don't keep any nutrition in me. Sorry about the topic. But I might as

well throw my two cents in.

I make my smoothies in the blender and actually use it with protein powder

for breakfast. I make enough to fill the bender and put the blender in the

fridge and re-blend each morning for about 3 days.

Long before i " discovered " the ER$YT THIng(and tested as a non-

secretor), I tried out those soy/hemp/rice(fill in the blank) milk

products....uh, no thank you.

PAM.....are you a secretor? If so, rock on with the soy milk, babe!

jb(likes his heavy cream straight.....and a few chunks of banana

might be an IDEA!)

> I love smoothies! I have been using vanilla soy milk and frozen

fruit. Yum! Last night I just used cherry juice, no milk, and it

seemed lacking! I'll have to use the milk since I don't miss my ice

cream that way and use some juice for the added flavor and nutrition.

I make my smoothies with soy milk, banana, egg, and some frozen blueberries,

pineapple, cherries, etc.

I should have added that milk and cream would be great taste additions to my

smoothie, but I don't use milk during the day because I'm on the WD. My

smoothie is designed to minimize insulin response and digestive need, though I

include eggs to make sure I have a reasonable supply of amino acids.

Almond butter delight smoothy

Servings: 1

1 frozen banana

1 cup raw whole milk

3 heaping tablespoons+ of raw almond butter, if in the mood for

peanut butter you can use that as well

This is a hit with kids!

It's probably much cheaper and more nutritious to just germinate some

raw whole almonds for a day or so and then then toss them in the

blender instead of buying or making almond butter, and much more

nutritious if the raw almond butter is made without a germination step

(which I'm guessing is true of commercial almond butter).

~~~~~>Hi Elaine,

No, I drink it during my " undereating phase " of the Warrior Diet. I

certainly wouldn't have any problem drinking it in one sitting, but I drink it

during

the low-calorie part of my day. It makes about 15-20 oz, so I'll have a few

oz. for breakfast with sauerkraut, then a about 5 oz for morning break at work,

then about 10 oz at lunch, and the remaining little bit in the afternoon.

Unless I deliberately sip it to make it last during lunch, it takes me just a

slug or two, over 15 seconds or so, to drink half the smoothie, so I imagine

it would be easy to drink it in one sitting otherwise.

On the other hand, you're talking to the guy who can eat a pint of Ben and

Jerry's or Hagen Daz in 10-15 minutes, which contains up to 1300 calories.

Heh, that's nothing. My smoothie recipe:

1 pint yoghurt made from pure cream (no milk)

6 egg yolks

~2t lacto-fermented blueberry extract/concentrate (I used to make my own,

but now I just lacto-ferment the stuff Mercola sells)

A bunch of ice cubes

That's interesting -- yoghurt made only w/cream. Do you heat the

cream or are you able to make it without heating it?

LOL! Yeah, but , unlike you don't go on to eat several

truckloads of food all night long later on! Thinking about Chris'

LOL! That's true too, though I do still pack away a fair bit of

food. It's a real stress on the budget, unfortunately.

It depends entirely on how fresh the cream is. As often as I can I make

purely raw yoghurt.

The B. smoothie

pint jar

3-4 egg yolks

sweet or cultured milk--some, whatever kind I need to use up in the

'frigerator

sweet or cultured cream or fresh coconut cream--lots, to fill jar

1T. carob powder

drops of vanilla

tsp. honey or stevia

give it a whirl

sometimes I go the berry route.

Clients go crazy for it.

for myself, post-workout, I'm a little more spartan:

one egg w/ white

2-3 oz. coconut milk

2-3 frozen berries or none

that's the WD

I am trying to think... a smoothie is fruit right? I think you can have yogurt now, possibly by week 4 I think fruits? (It has been so long, I can't remember). I know Dr A couldn't put every food on the post op diet but I think a fruit smoothie is ok at week 4. Nina will know for sure.

Becky,

I missed this post before, sorry.

Smoothies are fine in regards to the thickness but really they are

loaded with calories. You need to be very careful with them. The

ones that are sold in some places can have up to 800 calories.

Smoothies are a perfect example of high calories liquids to avoid.

If making them at home it is easier to control the amount of

calories. Check the calorie counting links we have here to have an

idea on how much you are getting in one smoothie. Many fruits are

loaded with carbs too.

If you like protein shakes you might consider putting one in the

blender with some ice to give it a little twist, this way you get

the protein, lower calories and few carbs. I love the Atkins

Advantage in vanilla and strawberry, it tastes like a dessert and

kills the sugar cravings.
