Raise your hand high if you’re typically still hungry after drinking a smoothie?
You can’t see me but my hand is raised so high right now, even as I’m typing. Not sure how I managed that 😀. Because I work a typical job (for now), I have to eat when I’m told.
So I eat breakfast at 6 am and I eat lunch at 12 pm. That’s a long time in between meals at least in my opinion.
As we are trying to get physically healthy, what we eat should be one of our top concerns. The idea of drinking smoothie is lovely but it’s not going to hold many people over until lunchtime, especially if lunch is 6 hours away.
Of course, snacks are an option and can be healthy but let’s be real here. Many of our snacks have enough calories to be considered meals. It’s a good idea to be quite judicious with our snacks.
Given all of this, I was delighted when I came across a video from Pickup Limes on YouTube that mentioned adding this to our smoothies to make them more filling. I’ll share what “this” is below.
Then I will share some more ways you can add protein and fiber to your smoothie to make them more filling.
Don’t have a way to make a smoothie? Definitely, check out the Nutribullet which is amazing.

Don’t tell yourself the lie: You absolutely can afford to buy organic food on a budget.
Although some people don’t believe organic food is worth the extra cost, without having scientific proof, I do believe eating organic and natural foods helped me bring my A1C to a normal range and lose weight to the tune of 60 pounds.
So I’m a big advocate.
However, it truly breaks my heart that organic and healthy food seems so out of reach for so many people.

I’ll comb through the grocery ads for that week, looking for sales because, you know, I’m going to plan my meals based on what’s on sale (ha ha ha).
I’ll go to the store, with a list but for some reason, it’s filled with items that do not form any sort of cohesive dish.
I will leave the store and go home only to remember, that I never made a meal plan and therefore, didn’t buy any groceries that could make a meal that seemed “planned”.Continue reading
