Hi everyone, I made a new smoothie tonight and it was delicious.It was Kale and fresh Pineapples.I learned how to cut up a pineapple for the first time ever lol.I can fit into several pairs of my skinnier jeans now, even tho the scale hasnt moved much.Still job hunting ughhhhhhhhhhhh. I see Dr.Oz is talking a bout raw food on tv tonight also.Pat

When you eat your fresh pineapple, does it make the roof of your mouth peel? It seems every time I eat it fresh, this happens.....

Are you using juicer or blender?

hi, what do you all use as a base. Water?
i've been using OJ and not loosing weight, i'm thinking the oj has too many calories!:rolleyes:

I use tomato celery and bell Pepper for the base of my smoothies. I don't load it down with Hi sugar fruits. If you spike your blood sugar it will not let you lose weight. I also use a couple greens and some Chlorella and Spirulina in my smoothies too. It has a very nice flavor too. Doug in Calif........:eek: :cool: :)

....YES THAT DOES HAPPEN! I love the taste of fresh pineapple but if you eat too much of it in one sitting it will "burn" the roof of your mouth. The inside of my mouth can only tolerate a big serving of the canned stuff. So I have only been eating fresh in small servings!;)
