Well, hello there.
I decided not to include an update last week as mother nature was visiting, and if I'm completely honest, I felt like utter poo poo.
This week I haven't eaten brilliantly and I'm feeling really guilty about it.
It always happens towards the end of the month, whenever money is starting to get a little low.
But, yesterday was pay day, and I relished in buying tons of fruit and veggies, ready for a week of smoothies.
I've done this before, I lost a bit of weight, but the bigger advantage was that I felt amazing for it.
This time I'm not going as hard with it as I did before. Last time I was having 4 or 5 smoothies a day and nothing else. It was bloody hard.
This time I've decided to have 2 or 3 smoothies a day, and a small evening meal.
Weight wise, I'm still sitting at 217lbs, the same place I was last time I weighed in.
I'm hoping this will get me off this plateau and help me lose a little before my birthday.
This mornings smoothie consisted of
four strawberries
half a mango
a handful of spinach
almond milk
natural sweetener
It honestly looked disgusting, but tasted amazing.
If you're a fan of smoothies, please leave your favourite combos in the comments below and I'll be sure to try them out.
That smoothie sounds amazing. I definitely need to try that soon :) After you stop drinking smoothies so much do you put on some of the weight again? I feel like that would be my problem. Best of luck to you, though :)

Last time I did smoothies, I did find that I put some of the weight back on, but I think that was down to the fact that I thought I could just go back to eating crappy again. This time I'm learning from my mistakes and introducing meals back in slowly. :)
