Broccoli Smoothie



Yesterday I decided to take some of the veggies I had in my fridge that were getting older and combine them with fruit, juice, and yogurt to make a smoothie. Mental note to self: Broccoli makes for a chunky smoothie...there are little florets that do not break down far enough...oops!



On the bright side, I couldn't really taste the broccoli, I could just feel the texture. Carrots, however, were a good idea. Yum.



Because I have been going on my morning 4 mile brisk walks, my body has been hungrier lately, which means more carbs. This is very tricky. I want to shape up my muscles, and lose a few pounds...but this whole hunger thing is throwing me off course. Yesterday I had popcorn and goldfish crackers by the handful...the smoothie had protein etc but it also had a lot of carbs :(



I have been okay with french bread at the O'street truck, and also rice and pasta...I need to be careful if I actually want to see results. More protein for me, I guess!!
