So many blenders...decisions decisions...help de decided



Recommended Posts

So i spent my entire lunch break looking at blenders and am undecided. I am trying to decide between the MagicBullet, NutriBullet or the Hamilton Beach51101 personal blender. All of which have awesome reviews on Amazon. Which blender are you guys using. I want something that is going to last but I'm also not trying to spend $120+

I got the Ninja for about $100. It was top rated on Consumer Reports. Working really well for me.

I got the Ninja at costco. It has a lot of bells and whistles (works as a food processor, etc) -- I couldn't be happier with it. I think it was right around $120.

I use it every single day.

I did the magic bullet and quite honestly only really used it in the purée stage. It worked pretty well even with chicken and gravy. Nowadays only my son uses it to make his fruit smoothie concoctions.

49.99 at target...

I got the Nutribullet from Bed Bath and Beyond. It was $99.99 but I used my 20% off coupon, so it came to $80- something with tax. It is a great blender but can be foamy on top of some shakes, which I just spoon off before drinking.

If you want just a regular blender, I'd go to Goodwill or some other thrift store. You could get one for under $10. Or ask friends or relatives if they have one they don't want. Most people have them and don't use them. Then you can see if you really would use it. The if you use it all the time, I'd look at one with all the bells and whistles. Just my opinion, I'm old school that way!

I got the Party Bullet because it was on sale after Christmas for 60% off. Same thing as the magic bullet - just has more cocktail-shaped cups. Honestly, I'm glad I didn't spend that much. I used it quite a bit during the puree stage, but have not used it at all since - really only used it for 2 weeks. For my Protein Drinks, I much prefer the Blender bottles - they are cheaper, and easier to use and clean (I can also take them with me on the road).

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
