Yesterday, Saturday, I found it difficult to finish my shake! Only because with no work or school; I had no motivation. And in fact, I was a little heavy on the junk food. It is my only day off during the week!
Today's shake is waiting for me after I work out. It has,
4 cups of spinach
2 cups of grape juice
1 large banana
2 cups of frozen fruit mix (strawberries, mangoes, peach, pineapple)
2 tablespoons of flax seed
1 scoop of whey protein
This one you can defiantly taste the grape juice. It isn't as sweet again, I think due to the grape juice. Which isn't a bad thing, I am just not used to drinking grape juice. But it is a good way to get another fruit into the mix. Today I go to work, so I am no worried about having the will power to drink it, lol!
I have been thinking of taking acai supplements, but usually I don't buy into those hyped up fruits (Remember pomegranate?) and to buy it in juice form is a bit too expensive. Someone else recommended I use super foods green in my shakes too, for added benefit. I think this is totally okay, if I can ever afford the $35 powder, lol.
There was also discussion for when I go on soy protein powder if I should do a work out blend (with more protein) or a more natural soy. I work out regularly (Now 4 days a week) but unless I start lifting, I am not sure if it is worth all the extra punch.
