He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?  ~Micah 6:8

Weight loss with Green Smoothies

Just a quick post…

John (DH) went back to the doctor yesterday. The doctor was really pleased and a little surprised with him. Why?

John has lost 3 kg in weight and 4 cm from his waist!

The doctor wanted to know how or what he had done to achieve this positive result. He answered by telling the doctor that it’s all his “wife’s doing…it’s this green stuff she’s making me drink

He went on to tell the doctor about green smoothies and the doc said it as great and to tell ‘the wife’ that she’s doing an excellent job! How’s that for cool?

Yesterday’s smoothie was delicious.

  • About 2-3 cups of watermelon.
  • About 3 large handfuls of cos lettuce
  • 1 orange
  • 1 fennel bulb
  • 2 frozen bananas
  • Dash of flaxseed oil

Smooth yet creamy…sweet but not overly so…very healthy.

    Oh just saw this! Excellent result for all the hard work of getting this green stuff into your tribe Susan! LOL… I like the sound of the smoothie recipe also.

    (I am behind with my reading of posts, because, as you know, I have been away). But I am enjoying the blend of different topics you are posting about!

    Oh that smoothie sounds yummy! I love watermelon. How big was the fennel bulb?
    Think we’ll try this one!

      The fennel bulb wasn’t all that large…it was a tad smaller than the size of my fist. It isn’t fennel season so they’re a bit expensive but we’ll use more fennel when they are cheaper.

      LMK how you go with it!
