Magic BULLET life style

[tloonya]

Its getting out of hands here...
Everyone around me is on magic bullet.
Kale and green apple, goji berry...chia seeds, flax seeds...PLUS all the strawberries and veggies and greens.

I had not read a book, however I am trying to figure out hot to get that perfect mix so it is tasty and healthy.

Also how much of IT to have daily? Just spoke with a customer who lost 40lb in 2 month.
She does Bullet morning and night and lunch of a huge salad in between. Snack - an apple.

Does anyone here?

Ewwww.... you would have to have the constitution of a ruminant to digest all that.

No, you blend it and drink it and it is just hard to find right ingridients that are tasty.

40 pounds in two months doesn't sound healthy at all.

I have a magic bullet (I actually won it as a door prize at trade show).  I only use it to make berry smoothies though.  I use frozen strawberries and raspberries, vanilla yogurt, ice and two teaspoons of sugar.

Absolutely everything makes a great smoothie with almond milk and a banana for sweetness!

It really depends on how big the person is to start with. 20lbs in a month for someone over 300lbs is not a big deal.

I have a Nutri Bullet. If I'm just making a smoothie by rote, I use kale or spinach, frozen strawberries, frozen blueberries, walnuts, flax seeds, gogi berries if I have some, apple juice and banana. I use to use pineapple instead of banana, but I think I've become allergic to pineapple or something. I've also added wheatgrass, broccoli, cucumber, parsley and carrots to my basic mix at times, depends on what else is in the refrigerator.

When I first started making smoothies I spent some time researching and chose to use most of the items for my basic recipefor some benefit they each had that I don't remember. I do remember that kale, wheatgrass and gogi berries are often referred to as "superfoods". Raw vegetables aren't my favorite food, so the strawberries, banana (or pineapple) and apple juice are to make it taste good so I'll actually drink it. I was ok with all the fruit because I wasn't trying to lose weight, just get more foods that promote good health into my system because I hadn't been feeling well for a long time.

When I was making them regularly I had 2/day but smoothies never made me feel "full" where I didn't feel like I needed to eat (I'm greedy). It was extra, not meal replacements.

I kind of like a little Canadian Club, a squeeze of lemon, a few drops of lime, and a short teaspoon of finely ground sugar.  Over ice.  It's tasty.  And it must be healthy, cause after a couple, I fall asleep, so I get lots of rest.

apples don't blend well for a smooth beverage - so I am thinking that the juice is used?

magic bullet is a thief - vitamix started this trend.

My Vita Mixer will turn apples into a nice smooth beverage.
I use them in my green juices.

Of course you'd get a bit drowsy after a couple (or three) - since you'd just blended yourself a few straight whiskey cocktails.

I have a vitamix - and found them grainy....

What are you adding in with the apples? It's not going to be butter smooth.

This morning got goji berry, chia seeds, flax seeds, kale, strawberries. My newly bought magic bullet 600 watt made me delicious breakfast.
First time didn't want to throw up drinking it. Still not hungry.

I never feel hungry after drinking these drinks, regardless of what I put into them. They will rev your metabolism and the pounds will melt away, especially if you add parsley. However, parsley won't work unless you have the right kind of blender.
