I also find the exact same thing, and its mainly because I eat lots of fresh fruit. Also even some vegetables contain sugar as does milk, so your never going to win! Im at a point now where I ignore the sugar suggestion, as long as Im mainly consuming healthy sugars then Im not concerned.

No problem Ive sent you a friend request :) Honestly Im finding the same thing.

Hi Vickie If Im being honest I dont think your quite eating enough, because you do so much exercise your body needs more fuel in order to burn the calories.

I think Im starting to sound like a smoothie expert :) lol. I had all the same queries as you when I started and it took hours of online research and trial and error to finally get it right, so Im glad I can share my knowledge with someone!!

Glad I could help :) Unsweetened almond milk is about 29 calories per 200ml serving with only 0.2g sugar and around 3g of fat, whereas skimmed milk per 200ml is 100 calories, 10g sugar and 4g of fat. The amount of milk you use depends on how much yoghurt you put in, if any and how thick you want your shake. Because almond…

Yes smoothies are healthy, I often use them as a replacement for breakfast. A couple of helpful hints: - unsweetened almond milk is a great alternative for milk and really good for you - try to aim for fruits that are lower in sugar, mainly strawberries and blackberries.
