Green Smoothie Challenge

I joined the challenge because I love a challenge and I love smoothies. This way I was sure I would be motivated to have one every day and be excited to try some fun new recipes. The recipes were delicious!! They were so satisfying I was full for hours. I have felt so clear headed and energized. I don’t wake up groggy I don’t need coffee anymore and my skin looks more radiant. I’m so proud I rated and commented on every smoothie because I’m normally not a person to post my thoughts but I was so excited about the smoothies!! I plan to keep it going. WooHoo!!!

Grateful for the supportive community counting on me to blend a healthy treat everyday kale yeah!

Joined the challenge to experience for myself the benefits from incorporating at least one green smoothie into my diet a day. The recipes were tasty and delicious. Each day, I looked forward to waking up to check my email for the new smoothie recipe. I noticed, skin, hair and nails improved. I felt less food cravings, less snacking, fuller, and more energetic; and I had an incredible sense of pride that grew stronger each day simply because I stayed committed.

Loved the simple, nutritious recipes. Filled my son and me full of energy! Thank you so much.

I joined the challenge to try more recipes. They all were fantastic! What surprised me is how much I learned about adding different ingredients and the many flavors they produce. I could taste specific ingredients. I am finding that fruits and vegies are so flavorful. One day, my husband made a scrambled egg for me along side the smoothie. It tasted quite bland compared to the smoothie 🙂 With the smoothies for breakfast, I feel full, but not bloated. And I start something afterward and have more energy to finish it. I just keep working 🙂 I have decided to have Green Smoothies most mornings for breakfast! What fun!

I joined the challenge because the smoothies looked delicious 😋 and the chance to win the Nama J2 is an opportunity I’ve got to say yes to! The recipes encouraged me to try combinations I hadn’t thought of and they came out good.

I think the challenge has helped to go back to a routine i had a few years ago. This is a good way to have me fruits and vegetables first in the morning rather than bread . I also like the idea of trying new combination and seeing which veggies and fruits have the best taste together.

I wanted to get back into the habit of having greens daily. The recipes were great, I would definitely try them again. I was excited to do the smoothie. I have not noticed any changes to my body. I am proud that I actually completed the week. Most of the time, I will begin something and not complete it – not consistent.

I joined the challenge because I have gotten away from having a smoothie in the morning. I would make my protien shakes but I never put anything green in them so this is getting me back on track. I loved the recipes my favorite is Day 6 Strawberry Mango Smoothie. I was sick during all of the challenge with this horrible cold and coughing up a lung..lol but I made sure I made my smoothie every day. I had no appetite so I made enough to have 2 throughout the day and it helped. I feel good I think it helped with this cold. I have never blended an apple(i’ve juiced one but not blended) or an avocado(it makes it creamy). I will start incorporating them in my smoothies and using more Spring water I usually use Almond milk but I did like the water I think it brings out the flavor of the fruit more. The changes I notice is that I feel lighter and not weighed down if that makes sense. It got me through my workday. I am proud that I stuck with it even though I was under the weather and that I tried new fruits in my smoothie. This Challenge RAWKED

It was simply satisfyingly super!

I joined the challenge to get new ideas for my daily morning green smoothie. Green smoothies have made the biggest difference in my digestion. Ingredient diversity is important providing a wide range of nutrients for good health. The challenge showed me I favor less fruit and more greens/vegetables in my smoothies. Thank you for sharing your recipes and I look forward to future challenges.

I joined the challenge to motivate me to make daily green smoothies. I feel better getting the fresh/frozen raw greens, fruits and vegetables into my body on a daily basis … smoothies are the easiest way to get this done! The recipes were delicious and introduced me to using mango, rather than banana, more often. It’s easy to get stuck in a rut making the same recipe combinations. These challenges get me to incorporate other fruits I wouldn’t normally consider. Thank you for putting this together.

Loved doing this challenge! It really got me into the habit of making smoothies each morning and I plan to do it again for a second week! I loved the homemade protein powder recipe…it’s a whole food with fiber and healthy fats – no protein isolates! I’ve noticed smoother digestion and just feeling great each day. Thank you!

So fun- I loved the variety of smoothies- my husband enjoyed them as well. They were all tasty and easy to make. Thank you for sharing your knowledge Jen!

I joined the challenge to work on getting into the daily habit of a green smoothie again and to work towards eating healthier overall. I loved the recipes since they were simple and didn’t require a lot of special ingredients. Creating one daily habit towards eating healthier was very achievable versus going a big meal plan overhaul. I am proud of myself for maintaining this for a week. I will definitely include this in my weekly groceries to keep doing it!

The challenge was amazing! I forgot how delicious fruits and vegetables were in a smoothie. It had been awhile since I had a smoothie. I felt refreshed, I lost 10 lbs I also incorporated drinking nothing but water. I would have a smoothie and just one meal a day. I think I will continue to challenge myself for a lifestyle change and try to get family and friends involved. I am proud to have stuck it out and started my granddaughter loving smoothies as well. Thank you very much for the fantastic emails and the uplifting words of wisdom. I love the recipes also.

I joined this challenge to challenge myself to make a green smoothie everyday, to get myself in a mind set of doing something good for my body to improve my daily health. All of the daily recipe’s are easy to make have nutrition’s ingredients and in a total time of about 2 minutes you can make a great smoothie to start your day. Having a daily smoothie has energized me to get moving more ever day, from doing a work out to going for daily walks, I have noticed I wake up craving a green smoothie, which tell me that my body has been lacking in getting the nutrients that it has been needing, I’ll continue to challenge myself make a green smoothie every day and continue a healthy lifestyle, this has been an amazing challenge, Thank you Jen this has been amazing everyday, I’ve absolutely loved reading all the posts from everyone in the challenge, it has been a truly great experience, thank you.

I joined to help reset a practice of daily smoothies… replacing one meal a day. I feel great, lost 2 pounds, have more energy and slept better. I am proud of myself for taking care of me…a good practice to follow as we enter the holiday season.

I had previously engaged in the soup challenge and that was a great experience and as I suspected this was just a good. The best parts for me is the organization from prep information to a shopping list to email reminders. I did love all the smoothie recipes and my head is now full of ingredients I hadn’t previously thought of adding to a drink like avocado. Been feeling bloated lately and this has decreased that at least 70%, a relief let me tell you! I’m proud to have kept up with the challenge although I didn’t manage to drink them at the same time… that will be my next challenge. Thanks Jen!

I really enjoyed it! I liked the recipes and felt lighter afterward throughout the day. Digestive tract appreciated the smoothies too. I’m proud of myself for doing something good for my body.
