Comment on What Not to Put in a Green Smoothie by Erin

Hello! New to this website and I love the different topics discussed! I’ve been drinking green smoothies for a while, and I agree with you on the different type of lettuces and celery. I have a couple of recommendations to experiment with: My go to quick and easy smoothie is 2 handfuls of kale, 1 banana, 1 red pear, a sprinkle of chia seeds, and water (usually about 2.5 cups). This makes a smooth and sweet 50 oz smoothie (everything I do is in estimation. I’ve worked with many greens, and I find that ones with stronger flavors (i think the strongest flavor conflict I had was with a gigantic batch of fresh italian parsley..good but oh my strong!) go best with citrus fruits (orange, lemon, and even a zesty piece of ginger) along with your base fruit of bananas or whatever else and water. I usually find that using water only also keeps the flavor crisper (I had a terrible recipe with almond milk and now I have a slight aversion to using it). I’ve also heard of people making savory smoothies (soups on the go!), but I’ve yet to go that route.

I wish I wasn’t going to be so busy this fall….I’d love to go to a conference like this, and I’ve never been to DC.

Comment on Getting Results: My Favorite 30 Minute Workout by alisa

I LOVE P90X and can’t recommend it enough really. When the winter hits, I will probably do another 3 month round of it. It really works, and is a well-rounded regimin. I should probably write about it a bit. I have also tried Insanity, which I hated. P90X is heavy in weights, yoga, and plyometrics, while Insanity is ridiculous levels of chronic cardio.

I’ve actually been thinking about getting the p90x workout! I’ve never done anything like it…..I know you’re bored with it now, but at the time…how was it?? This workout routine looks cool too. Though I haven’t used a jump rope in maybe 20 years???
