WORKOUT - Ran at DP Harbor 1 hr 32 mins/11.6 miles
This run felt really good, I don’t even know why but I think I’m about ready for a PR this weekend. Porfa please??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I came home and decided to make a smoothie with my bombastic Margaritaville machine.
Vitamix, go on and grind walnuts and cinder blocks all you want, I can make kick bootay margaritas. Vita what?!?
Because you’re dying to know what’s in it, I’ll tell you:
~1 banana
~1/4 avocado
~1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder
~1/2 cup 0% Fage
~1 cup lite vanilla soy milk
~2 T flaxseeds
~3 cups spinach
~cinnamon and splenda
It made 2 large cups. I even calculated out the nutritionals for the whole thing:
445 calories, 15 grams of fat, 35 grams of protein
Ok I feel way too healthy now and need to go do something like this:

You are one crazy lady BUT I love your blog. Always get a good laugh, and lots of inspiration. Sure going to miss your blog when you go to work.
Dang, girl. That is 1 healthy smoothie!!! Going to give this a whirl in my blender sometime…
I threw up a little.
ok so i’m down for the standard plain yogurt, berries, protein powder smoothie…but the spinach and avocado are things i’ve not yet been brave enough to attempt. how do you know what portions to add and to what flavors?
you cant even taste either of them. the avo maybe makes it a little thicker or creamier. but i put 3 cups of spinach and couldnt even taste it. of course i also added 3/4 of a bag of splenda…..
ive used cooked spinach in other things like brownies and tacos and such…so i believe you that you can’t taste it. i just never thought it could go into a beverage, esp raw. but i will try it.
what do i tell my veg-hesitant hubby is making the smoothie green?
I’m so excited for you to PR!
And that’s the best looking margarita I’ve seen
I dont mind spinach in smoothies but for whatever reason am scared to try avocado! Your smoothie looks great though.
Delicious smoothie
I have to say your smoothie combo sounds less than appetizing, but I guess if it keeps you full and since it’s obviously healthy, I guess it’s doing its job.
Kudos to you for keepin’ it down!
omg i could sooo go for a smoothie right now. or a margarita!
If you replaced the avocado and spinach with three shots of tequila, I’d call it good.
