So I was at costco this weekend and watched an amazing presentation on the Blendtec blender/processor which directly competes with Vitamix but is about $100 less. It's amazing. It has smoothie, ice cream, and Soup settings. You can make homemade Soups, purees and other creations in seconds. Toss some roasted chicken and almond milk with roasted red peppers and herbs for an amazing Soup made in 90 seconds! Freeze for weekday meals! So easy! I'm serious, he made an "ice cream" which had: banana, spinach, plain coconut milk and ice - it was amazing and thick and totally healthy! No added sugar. You can also add beets, pineapple, all sorts of things for your Fiber but in a more digestible form. This is not juicing, it's whole foods at it's best. And the best part is that you can get 2-3 oz storage containers (like for baby food) and freeze/store for later! So getting this thing!!!

Don't forget many vegetables have protein! You can add some silk tofu into a veggie Soup for a Protein and Fiber rich soup if you don't want animal Protein in every meal. Cancer reducing veggies are great for skin too! Eat the rainbow!

Ok... I am 'research girl'.. best place to get blendtec is bed bath and beyond. Call the closest store, order it, use a 20% off coupon and ask for free shipping. Comes to just under 350 :)

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
