Green Shake Challenge

[RawMistress]

I want to start a (2 week) "green shake challenge" thread. Where can I put this thread?

My intent is to eat raw but consume LOTS of greens shakes (up to a gallon a day) over the next 2 weeks.

How cool, I reckon it'd go in this forum but who am I to say?

What will you be comparing it by? I mean, I think it would be very interesting if you were going from an 80-100% raw vegan diet to a similar diet which is very high in green shakes. Then any changes could definitely be attributed to the smoothies. But if you're coming from a 50% raw non-vegan diet, any results can be attributed to the change in diet generally.
Just wondering...

Anyway, I'm all for it.

Hi, I would love to take you up on your green smoothie challenge. I am new here, and just trying to go all raw, but about the only raw stuff I ever have is a green smoothie in the morning. (Then it's all downhill from there!) This should not be too difficult for me, and in fact, it may really help me in staying raw (except they are SOOO cold!) Let's communicate!:D

Hi! Thanks for joining me!
I had my first green shake EVER today for dinner!
It was awesome and filling!
(then I ate some of Alissa's chocolate)
I was very happy with how full it made me feel!
Tomorrow I am going to have shakes all day!
(and maybe some raw chocolate)
I really want to get some benefits from them since I have not ate greens before!

I had my morning green shake.
Spinach, 2 apricots, and a banana.
Next time I will use one apricot as it was very tart with two. :rolleyes:
