Blender Drink Mania

Had a couple of blender drinks today...

Started the day with the "Surprisingly Simple & Good Blueberry-Coconut Blender drink": 1 ripe banana, lots of blueberries, coconut flakes, tablespoon of peanut butter, frozen spinach, flax meal, chia seeds, rice protein powder, almond milk.

Slipped into the gym for a quick "guinea-pig" session, taking a friend through Workout C of TT Hardcore 2K10. They were surprised by the heart-pounding effects of my latest metabolic resistance training circuit.

You'll love it.

Followed that up with today's omelet:

4 "free-range, peacekeeping, carbon-neutral, prius-driving eggs", feta cheese, broccoli, red pepper, and red onion.

After a couple of dog walks, I finished my day with an afternoon blender drink experiment gone right, and appropriately named: "The Sweetest Thing"

Ingredients: 1 banana, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, 5 dates, spinach,almond milk, flax oil, rice protein powder, peanut butter. Had with a toasted almond butter sandwich.

Also posted the latest 7-day fat loss call here:

And to finish with today's kick-butt mindset tip:

Are you still trying to gain some muscle? If so, it does not seem like you eat very much. How are things going with that? I realize you may not have to eat as much to gain, but I thought you had said you were somewhat of an ectomorph. Just wondering as I am also trying to put on some lean mass. Thanks!

Hey Craig,

I think that you are dating your blender, man. Pretty soon you will be picking out silver patterns!

I've seen you mention Amy's organic chili,but after looking at the sodium content,is that really considered good?
