Also, I agree with your wife about thinking of a smoothie as a nutritious meal. We have to be careful when thinking that we’re downing “nutritious” choices, they’ll magically have less calories toward our total daily intake of food. Weight gain can make us all feel sluggish and depressed- sometimes even more so if we gain weight from fruit and nuts instead of pizza and pie- because we think, what the heck’s the deal?

Thanks for making this great mate blog!
