Total weight loss since day 1: 1 stone 12 lb
Smoothie Feast: Day 9 of 60
Weight holding steady at 13 stone 3 lb, though I still feel lighter, fitter and on the whole, really good!
Day off from the gym as I really needed it...my legs were very achy and I think I pulled a muscle in my left butt, so I've been resting my aching muscles!
Made myself a gorgeous smoothie this morning, which I nominate for...
Smoothie of the Day:
3 bananas, 10 strawberries and water
Rating: 5 out of 5
Creamy and strawberry taste (of course), like healthy strawberries and cream!

Also made some hemp seed milk today, using 1/2 cup hemp seeds, 2 cups water, 2 medjool dates. Stuck it in the Blendtec and gave it a whizz. Poured the contents into a muslin (nut) bag, to get all the lovely juice out and leave all the roughage behind. Then poured juice into an air-tight glass jar and sat it in the fridge for 3 hours.
After 3 hours I went ahead and made my healthy raw, non-alcoholic piña colada, which I put together with 1/2 pineapple, vanilla pod, 1 tbsp shredded coconut and the hemp milk and blended it all together.
Looks like a big glass of milk but really it's raw piña colada

I made far too much, as it got a bit sickly near the end...hemp seeds have a stronger flavour than almonds...I prefer almond milk but it's worth trying something different.
Hopefully I would've shed a pound tomorrow, and I'll be heading back to the gym. On the whole I'm very pleased with the way my diet's going and I'm enjoying my smoothies.
Hasta pronto
