I looked at a lot of smoothie books before purchasing this one.
I like the practicality of it. The 10 day smoothie challenge is easy esp with the shopping list, no crazy expensive ingredients.
Once you do the 10 days, curiosity takes you to the other chapters to try other more adventurous smoothies with some unheard of ingredients ( at least to me). If you fall off track, you can just go back to the 10 day challenge because it is so doable.
I like the fact that there is a substitute list in the back of the book, eg what do you use if you don't have bananas etc, super helpful.
I normally get recipe books like this and they gather dust on the shelf but with this one, I have been using it every day and I do feel physically better for taking them.
I do one smoothie a day, typically in the morning, using their recommendation on meal replacement so I get protein. I make enough to use in the am and then take the other half in the afternoon then have dinner at night.
Haven't tried every smoothie but have read the whole book and bar maybe 1 or 2 recipes, they all look very easy and appealing to put together and won't break the bank.
I like the concept of starting off slow and slowly take it up a notch so change is gradual.
Now, about 1 month in, I have purchased some ingredients I probably wouldn't have used and am enjoying experimenting.
I also use a portable blender by popbabies so no crazy Vitamix here....what I am trying to say is you don't need lots of money to start or continue this health journey and it will get you thinking about your lifestyle habits in general without any pressure.......my experience, anyway.
