Goodbye to smoothies

Glorious, tasty, lovely fruity smoothies.

Too much sugar. Calories are right, but even adding yogurt (more high glycemic index food) they are making me jittery then hungry. :(

Pretty, full of all kinds of colors that are probably good for me in other ways, but just too much sugar.

Goodbye smoothies. It really was fun while it lasted.

Do you ever put kale in them? When we make smoothies we usually use lots of fruit, but also a *lot* of kale, carrots... other things I can't think of. Anything that's good for you and can be masked by a few sweet fruits. Not sure if that'd help or not.

Good ideas - but I'm trying to get rid of all the high glycemic index foods in my diet. That includes pretty much all fruit. :(

I want to try it out for a while and see how I feel off of the sugar roller coaster. :)

Sigh. It is pretty though. Tasted fab too.

Even without the bananas eh?

sucks, cause I know you like them.

I never make them mostly because of the clean up hassle. :)

I always figured that anything that tasted that good probably wasn't good for me or had a lot of calories. Bummer!!

No beer and no smoothies...I'm on pins and needles waiting to see what you are going to toss out next. Going to be some very plain days ahead

Just in case there's something else you need to give up.

Yep. That's about it. :)

I had beer for the first time in a few weeks last night and I've felt crappy all day.

Funny how one bad diet decision leads to a bunch more. Feeling run down and achey from the beer, today I ate fast food hamburgers and a big bowl of oatmeal - with a HUGE dump of honey.

Tomorrow I'll have to get evened back out. That will be challenging because it's a trial day. :-/
