My mother in law gave me a recipe for a smoothie, it sounded absolutely gross, so I ignored it. She insisted I try it, and since I have trouble getting in all my veggie and fruit servings, I did. It was delicious. Just try it! Let me know what you think!

1/2 cup plain greek yogart

2 tbsp splenda

2 tbsp fat free evaporated milk

1small banana (frozen when possible)

1 small peach (peeled and sliced)

2 strawberries

2 1/2 cups fresh bagged spinach

1/2 cup ice

Blend until smoothie....

14 grams protein!

All your veggie/fruit serving for the day!

This sounds amazing! Did you make it public on My Fitness Pal? If so what did you call it so I can log it too! Sounds like something I would want every morning for breakfast! THANK YOU SO MUCH! :D

When you enter the recipe there is a spot at the bottom that ask if you want to share it publicly or it can be just for you. It is a check box. No worries I will log it in and if you give me a name(it is your recipe) then you can search it and use it too B)

Oh no! Im not the original poster ;) I just wanted to see what the nutritional facts were... I did get it posted. I saved it under my meals, not receipes.... but anyway its up there... I hope the original poster does not mind! I named it Spinach Receipe.

Oh and the nutritional facts ended up being a bit different, but not a big difference.

THANK YOU SOOO VERY MUCH FOR POSTING THIS! I will now be saving lots of cash and calories as I no longer have to frequent Planet Smoothie! THIS IS A VERY VERY DELICIOUS SMOOTHIE! I have made over and over and will continue as it has everything! The carbs are tad high BUT it is from the fruit so I am ok with that! Thank you!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
