Waking up to "The Greens"

Today I started "The Greens", my usual delightful apple with peanut butter and large coffee is now replaced by a gagalicious green super food beverage...

Doesn't that just look DELICIOUS!?!

Yea, I know. Not really. But, I'm willing to do whatever Dr. Bauer tells me to do. Medically Supervised weight loss is no joke after all. This super food beverage tastes like a liquid vitamin, is chalky and downright gross. I had a hard time getting the first dose down, I'm hoping lunch goes much better. Daniel tried it last night before I had a chance and said it wasn't bad... this coming from a man that can eat pretty much anything. I should have known better. Gagged twice and had a really hard time keeping it down for a few minutes. Drinking it through a straw as fast as I could with my eyes closed made it easier. How sad is that? I'm sure that I will adjust to the taste, but ewwww! I know, I know. It will all be worth it!

I brought some steamed peas to munch on throughout the day, so at least I have that to look forward to! And LOTS and LOTS of water. 150 oz. to be exact. I think I might float away today...

Now I'll leave you with that wonderful picture of my breakfast and lunch in your head and my motivational quote...

  1. Yuck. I guess if your doctor says it's okay maybe it is, but usually I am a believer that processed foods are never better for us than raw fresh organic ones. That seriously looks disgusting.

    Hope it starts to taste better soon! can you drink it ice cold? Cold keeps our taste buds from noticing taste as easily and focuses them on temperature first.
