Breakfast Smoothies
If you want/need to lose weight. You can make and drink one of these smoothies each morning (or the evening before). Drink all of it in the morning or spread it out through the day. For the rest of the day you can eat all you want of celery, cucumbers, lettuce, spinach, and drink herbal tea. Sugar free jello can also be an option but should be limited due to the added chemicals.
Rotate the smoothies. Do not drink the same smoothie over and over again. The smoothies are designed to provide all the nutrients your body needs; however, most by themselves, are not sufficient calories for a long time. You will eventually need to add additional calories from whole grains, vegetables, fruit, and protein (plant based is best.) When you add additional calories, the earlier consumed, the better.
If you have a health condition, consult with your doctor before trying.
You can put an ingredient in one of the specialized search engines to the right to learn more about potential benefits.
At least a 1000 watt blender is recommended.
You can substitute rolled brown rice or rolled barley for the rolled oats on all of the smoothies.
