I've been making a smoothie every morning lately during carb cycling. Mine have to contain a protein, carb and veggie so I make one with 1 cup Greek yogurt for protein, 1 cup frozen mixed fruit for my carb and 1 cups spinach or kale......I also add 8 to 10 ounces of water. Its not the best smoothie I've ever had but tastes…

Personally, I don't give a hoot what anyone thinks about what…

"Yep.
