5 Day Smoothie Fast

By
I am starting a 5 day smoothie fast on Monday, November 4, 2013. I am doing this just to pretty much detox and cleanse my body to prepare myself for my journey to becoming a Pescetarian (A person who doesn't eat any meat except fish) and then a vegetarian. Even though I haven't eaten beef or pork for over 15 years, I loved me some chicken, any way you prepare it I'll eat it (Except fried).. Lol... So this is going to be a challenge for me. But green smoothie here I come... This is one of my favorite green smoothie protein shakes.



Green Smoothie Recipe

 
A simple smoothie recipe with tropical fruit and kale.

Ingredients:

  • 1 scoop plain or vanilla protein powder
  • 1 large kale leaf (over 1 cup chopped)
  • 2 cups low fat milk or almond milk ( I use Almond Milk )
  • 3/4 cup frozen pineapple chunks
  • 3/4 cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 frozen banana

Directions:

  1. Prepare ahead: Cut all fruit into 1 inch chunks and place in separate freezer bags. Freeze. (You can find these items precut and frozen in most grocery stores.)
  2. To make: Place all ingredients in a heavy-duty blender and puree until smooth.
  3. Makes one enormous servings,  2 large servings, or 3 small servings.

Flirty Girls 10 Reasons To Work Out in The Mornings

By
10 Reasons to Workout in the Morning     It can be challenging to make the time to exercise. But exercising in the morning is a wonderful way to create a positive routine and provides many added benefits beyond just keeping you fit.   1. Burn FAT instead of calories Get up, get a glass of water, and workout. No breakfast, no small bite beforehand. Do not take in a single calorie until you do cardio first. The reasoning behind this is when you exercise without eating, your body needs to tap into something for energy. Your body's first source of energy is glycogen but since this was depleted overnight your body must burn unwanted FAT to get you through your workout.   2. Better long-term results Over 90% of people who exercise *consistently*, exercise in the morning. Our bodies love routine. If you force yourself to get up when your alarm goes off, your body will thank you and pay you back.   Extra perk: People who exercise regularly earn 9% more income than people who don't.   3
