    I buy the frozen fruits from Target. You can get a lot of different types and combinations.

    1 cup of fruit
    1/2 cup of non fat yogurt
    1 cup water
    5 pieces of ice
    1 table spoon of splenda (i need the sweet flavor and it quenches my need for sweet taste)

    about a 140 calories and makes a good size glass

    I am a huge ice cream fan so if I have really done well for a week. I plan a frozen yogurt treat maybe once a week.

    1 cup of fruit
    1 1/2 cup of non fat milk
    1 cup of frozen yogurt

    about 435 calories and this would equal a large Blizzard from Dairy Queen so cut this in half would probably be perfect size for most people

    hope you enjoy

    I hate milk so I use water or crystal light (not juice, too much sugar). I never use ice cubes because they give you brain freeze! When I have bananas that are too ripe to eat, I peel them & wrap them in saran wrap and put them in the freezer. Plus they're sweet.

    My current favorite smoothie:

    1 cup water or crystal light lemonade
    one frozen banana
    two fresh strawberries
    a dollop of Greek yogurt


    Lately I've been on a passion fruit kick -- you can buy the frozen pulp...Goya brand I think. They also have mango.

    Of course add protein powder (unflavored) and whatever other powdered boost you want.

    I make a tropical fruit smoothie

    1/2 cup of no sugar added canned tropical fruit
    1 cup fat free milk
    1 packet of original instant oatmeal
    5 ice cubes
    1 splenda packet

    You can really substitute any fruit that you want. I like canned or frozen fruit that doesn't have sugar added, because it last longer than fresh fruit. The oatmeal gives you the carb boost that you need not to get hungry. Sometimes I use orange juice instead of milk.
