I know I have mentioned this in my ClassPass post about how I’m trying to eat healthier in addition to incorporating exercise. But now that I’ve shared how I’m changing up my snacking habits in the last post (additionally, I’m no longer having any sugary snacks and sodas during the week), I also wanted to share exactly how I make my morning breakfast using Smoothieology from the Good Clean Health blog.
I love this guide because takes the guess-work out of making a nutritious smoothie that fits me perfectly. I’ve made several trials drinks, but this is the one that I have had every weekday morning since March 2014. My version looks a bit green, but it really is quite delicious because I make it with selections from the “Optional” section to take the edge of the “rawness” of the smoothie. Not only do I feel better, but I’ve even lost a little weight by cutting out my crazy fast-food morning routine. Let me know how you are changing up your habits for a more healthier you!
