Which blender should I get?



Recommended Posts

@@laceemouse ice is a yes, and you definitely need something more than an immersion blender for that. Many plans will not allow fruit, especially in a smoothie, which is basically like injecting liquid sugar into your system.

I got a bullet and returned it because it was hard to clean. (Not THAT kind, the blender kind. I love my THAT kind.)

Bought a Ninja thinking it would do more. Returned it because I didn't use it for anything my blender couldn't do.

Bought a food' processor. Returned it. Too many pieces.

I used my regular old blender a few times, and my immersion blender much more often because it was easier to clean.

I needed a blender for all of three weeks and I didn't need another appliance on my counter.

Don't over buy. You won't need half the crap you think you do.

I bought the ninja so that it can do double duty of Soups and smoothies. That thing destroys, I put yogurt, Protein powder, ice, strawberries, spinach, and flax seeds and in about 5 seconds everything is liquified.

Yep. Agreed.

I already had a Ninja- and used it a bit in the beginning for Bariatric purposes, but now it's just for regular use when I'm cooking

A good old shaker/blender bottle with the mixer thing that looks like a jack is perfect for shakes- doesn't make too much air, easy to clean and take on the go. Mine has a bottom part that unscrews and holds the Protein powder dry until I need it. Easy Peezy.

Foamy Protein shakes suck lol

I use a Blender Bottle for my post morning workouts, it is quick and I make shakes up the night before.

But I also have a regular blender for more complex mixes of veggies and cooking.

      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

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
