Day 3 Love Your Greens


This is another short post.  I have a women's brunch to prep for- making 6 pounds of homemade granola and have to finish the crafts for the kids.  It will be a long night.

Well slipped off the whole foods wagon for tonight because of business.  My husband got some fried chicken, potato chips, and soda.  It was still good and I hope I ate in moderation.

Weight- 145 BMI-28
Feeling: Good, energetic, rested, still a little heavy but working on it, also mad at my hair (that has nothing to do with the challenge just thought I should mention that), I think some of the sugar cravings have gone down, but it could all be in my head. 

Today's smoothie was Strawberry Orange Green Smoothie.  I used water, kale and spinach mix, 2 oranges, 1 banana, a few handfuls of sliced frozen strawberries, and a few TBS of cashews.  We almost substituted almonds for the cashews because we were waiting for Daddy to come home with them.  Hermione did not want to make it with almonds.  She insisted we have to make it by the rules.  She is my first born for sure!  I probably would have said the same thing at her age.  But we got the cashews just in time.  This is the first smoothie we had to sweeten with honey because it came out a little tart.  I think the oranges weren't as sweet as the first ones we used.  This one was a big hit, though, it was a little grainy because of the poor blender.  We even made enough for Daddy.  He tried one.  He said, "Not bad."  So far so good.
