Blended Salads
Saturday, September 27th 2014
This is likely to be old news for many but, for me, it was an amazing discovery. I have had six blended salads this week. I find they are quick and easy, and a very tasty and satisfying way of getting a nourishing meal. The variety is almost endless and I can even toss in a few "super" veggies that I don't particularly care for and they are completely concealed in the menagerie of flavor. In addition to the nutritional benefits of blended salads over conventional salads is the fact ...A Short Poem - A Ballad for Weight Loss

I hate heel and ankle pain and it is a major deterrent to most kinds of exercise involving walking or running. Hopefully, that part is over for now. My goal is to get about 30 minutes on the Gazelle sev...« Previous
