Hi. I really enjoy your channel. I just began IF and OMAD. I'm turning 61, am very obese, and having issues with degenerate disk dease. I have a smoothie a day, for me this is the combo I use:. 1 banana, 1/2 c goat milk, 2/2 c goat yogurt, 1c of EITHER frozen blueberries or cherries, and 1 c of mixed summer berries. Thank you for you vids.
I love smoothies. I must get back into making them. Used to make a big batch every morning for the family for breakfast. Frozen berries, spinach, beetroot, avocado and banana then added in live yogurt. Thank goodness we went into lockdown. All my son's friends started calling for some after he brought a bottle out with him one day!! It was costing me a fortune - and I wouldn't mind but they're all adults! I guess they've been doing that for about 20 years now so shouldn't be surprised at all. Every time I make something different, I turn around and some other mother's son is at my table saying "Well. What are we having today mum?". We run a great house!
That sounds like my house. I could only have 1 baby however even now she is 30 and married her friends will still appear near meal times for as they say a good meal and advice. My daughters 1 lunchbox seemed to morph into doing for half the class. I am definitely sharing these smoothies
I just made the PB&J smoothie for my oldest and youngest kids this this morning. They LOVED it!!!❤️❤️ I did sneak a little spinach to theirs just to give them a little bit of greens. Neither noticed. I had one as well and it was amazingly delicious! It’s been about 3 1/2 hours and I still feel full!
Was skeptical but just made the vanilla cupcake smoothie and it does, indeed, taste like a vanilla cupcake 🧁 😋! Made with coconut milk. Super filling. Was 350 calories so off for a long walk!
Thank you, Lacey, for this great video. I've been curious about protein powders but scared at the same time about how processed they are. I'm glad you broke down what to look for in a protein powder. Thanks for passing on your experiences and knowledge! You're the best, Lacey!!💖
I love smoothies… I do one every day. 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk 1cup mixed dark frozen berries (blue, black, ect) 1 cup frozen spinach 6oz plane Greek yogurt 2 scoops whey protein Water to desired thiccccness About 475 cals as prepared. Can be much less if yogurt is omitted. But I use it as a meal replacement
@@yawrrrrrr in a way yes.. weight loss is more about keeping track of what you eat, holding yourself accountable, and staying in a calorie deficit than any particular food you eat.
I made the chocolate one it was so good. But then I tried it again with chocolate almond milk instead of regular almond milk and baby it was the bomb thanks for sharing I will be trying all of these one at a time 😘
Hi! love these smoothies! for what concerns the green machine protein smoothie is there a way I can substitute the peanut butter? my local grocery doesn't have it
Ok had to leave a review cause this is so good! Thank you for the great video, you made it super easy to understand and I love that you put the recipe in your video description for easy access. I wish I could afford the $80 protein powder, but would love a lower cost option if you have one!
Quick question should my smooth be a replacement for meals? Also should I do one a say or can I do more? Lastly any specific time of day I should drink it??
Hi @lacey I’m new to your channel and.. thank you for all this amazing videos and info… after kids I have struggled with my weight 😵💫😵💫 . I was looking for a some good smoothies. I was also wondering can these be good for kids???? My kids love smoothies
Y ou explain things so much better than any other videos i have watched,you are straight to the point backed by sceince that is going to kick start my new eating habbits i am excited lacey!thank sooo much these smoothies made me want one .
Lacey - I LOVE your videos. I am brand new to this journey of healthy eating - mostly lead by my functional DR b/c I have such high inflammation, chronic arthritis. Do you have or ever make beginner exercise videos? Thanks so much!
Hi. I enjoyed this video a great deal and found it helpful as I start my weight loss journey. What could I substitute bananas in your recipes? I’m severely allergic to avocado oil and due to that I have to avoid bananas, mangos, kiwi and strawberries (nutritionist says they are all part of the same pollen). Thank you.
I fix smoothie freezer packs and keep about 5-7 for the week. I see you put them in mason jars. Do they taste good after a day or two in the fridge? I've tried fixing them ahead but they seem to separate or curdle. Thanks.
If you’re looking for added protein without using protein powder, I’d recommend adding chia seeds, flax seeds, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or egg whites. 👍
Any suggestions on my current recipe? 1/2 Banana 1/3 Apple 1/2 Avocado ~6 Baby Carrots 1/4cup Blueberries Handful of Spinich 1/2scoop Protein Powder 1cup Almond Milk 1/2cup Plain Greek Yogurt I try adding as much to my daily smoothie as possible and so am looking for "super foods" to consider incorporating. This is basically so I don't need to eat anything else, other than a chicken salad sandwich and a protein bar until dinner. Note: I work out 3 - 4 times a week.
Great video! I bought the vanilla protein...I love it! and I have a vitamix I've used for years. Thank you for the great protein recipe. They are great!
When you freeze your smoothies, do you take them out the night before to thaw? How long do they take to thaw to the right texture? I would love to prep smoothies ahead of time so I don't have to be the guy running the vitamix at 5am lol
Greetings all the way from South Africa, lockdown has encouraged reflection on the foods we eat, love your recipes, so healthy and nutritious! Lovely way to help my new food journey along:-) Thx!
Great content! Btw, Is it okay to drink whey protein when trying to lose weight? Im thinking taking whey will prevent muscle loss while im trying to lose weight? My ideal weight is 70 but im 79 now. Should i not drink whey? And focus on weight loss first then when i reach may 70kg then i will take whey?
Hi Lacey, I've always been afraid to use protein powders because someone said that if I'm not working out hard, I might bulk up. Is that something that could happen with the powder you use? Thanks in advance.
Yari's Face Painting & Balloons It can’t be any worse than your hardest binge on Krispy Kreme donuts. Go for the powder, you won’t have the same regrettable experience as that one night in China Town.
My girlfriend recently gave me as a gift a blender capable of making smoothies now this is new to me and the directions that came in the package said to add ice but using frozen fruits as you said makes perfect sense in fact you've won me over as a subscriber, I look forward to your new videos as I've tapped the notification button 👍
Why do the berries and banana have to be frozen? Will non-frozen work? I just want to lose weight and I dont know if some of the blenders I can afford will last long doing frozen things.
Hi Sweet Pea Chef. I am new to smoothies. Can I add both protein powder and collagen powder to the smoothie recipes or am I doing this wrong. I've read that when you are craving sugar, you should consume more protein and I want to make sure I keep my cravings under control and I feel full as I want to use 1 smoothie/day as my meal replacement. I've heard that collagen is actually protein so am I doubling up in an unhealthy way?
Whey is processed fast by the body collagen is processed slowly collagen is good for before bed. It dosent matter lots of protein is fine it has a thermic affect its hard for your body to break it down so you use more calories digesting it. That helps keep weight off.
Thank you so much!! I just purchased a blender and so excited to video review it tomorrow using one of your recipes!!! I will def tag your video to mine! :)
The vanilla cupcake, and green machine are so good my favorite I lost three pounds and I’m still going and I love the whey protein by far my favorite protein powder thank you for suggesting it
@@Brnblessed32 - Hi, if you want to substitute the whey protein (bcuz of price).What are measurements for peanut butter,flaxseeds,chia, etc. Thank you.
Hi, I've just found your channel and am on my IF journey and enjoying the benefits so far. I'm looking to incorporate a protein shake in the morning but am finding it hard to find a reasonably priced protein powder without loads of nasty ingredients (I'm in the UK and on a budget). Could I buy organic unflavoured whey and add my own flavourings? Do you have any suggestions on how I can do this? Love your content. Hope you are all keeping safe in this crazy world today.
Amazing! I will definitely give a try! Thank you for sharing! For PB&J do I have to use frozen strawberry or I can try another fruit as well like banana?
Hello, I want to start drinking smoothies but I have a question, how many oz I can drink to avoid getting fat? I can’t do the measurements she said because I also do for my mom and my boyfriend thank you
Smoooooothies for days ❤️! These 5 smoothies are perfect to have in your toolkit for a healthy go-to meal or snack. Which one sounds best to you???
These look awesome
Can I make them in advance for a few days and keep in fridge or are the best to make as you are going to drink them?
the vanilla cupcake 😍
A sweet pea chef where did u buy it the silicone bags ???????..
Do you have a good suggestion to replace whey protein?

I decided to try your Pb&J smoothie but I Froze it to make it into Icecream in my ninja creami. I’m excited to try it tomorrow :)
Measurements would be helpful, however I did make a PB&J this morning and it was pretty good! Thanks for the ideas!

Any recommendations for a diabetic. And a protein powder for diabetic and won't spike sugar
you seem like the nicest person ever 😂🤍 love your video
😊 thank you
Hi, just have a quick question, those frozen fruits that you add specifically the frozen banana, isn’t it a high carb?
Thanks
Can these be used if you are ready to break your fast?
I made the coffee flavor one for a week instead of eating breakfast its not much but I lost 2 pounds:)
Is better then nothing
That’s how much you’re supposed to be losing a week. I’m pretty sure that’s considered the max you should lose
2 pounds is actually a lot for an entire week good job!
2lbs in one week is alot!
What about lunch and dinner?
Nice video.. 2 easy mojito recipe also good summer drinks...👍👍👍
Love your videos 😊😊
Lacey - I LOVE your videos. I am brand new to this journey of healthy eating - mostly lead by my functional DR b/c I have such high inflammation, chronic arthritis. Do you have or ever make beginner exercise videos? Thanks so much!
Can you make these smoothies after the workout? For weight loss and also is banana good for weight loss?
Are these smoothies good before 30 minutes workout
Many thanks for the useful information you've provided.
How many of these especially the coffee one can you have in a day. The coffee one is delicious 😋
Would be great if you would say how many cups of milk. I don't think I used enough milk, it tasted gritty because of the protein power. Thank you
What do you think about bone broth protein powder?
Hey lacey, can I use herbalife for my shake
Can you use the naked protein powder mixed with the smoothie as a pre workout/before going to the gym?
What could be a substitute for the bananas in the coffee smoothie?
How long can you keep the protein shakes in a mason jar. Will it not go bad after a while?

Hi Lacey how can I used protein shakes to lose weight without exercising
I mixed in my nutribullet a glass of fresh coconut juice, a cup of raw Broccoli florets, and 1/2 Dazzle apple. It taste really good.
Lacey, what are your thoughts on using Frozen organic greens (spinach, kale) found in the supermarket?
My stomach doesn't like protein powder. It makes me run to the loo. Could I substitute it with avocado instead? Great smoothie suggestions! Thanks!
If you’re looking for added protein without using protein powder, I’d recommend adding chia seeds, flax seeds, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, or egg whites. 👍
@@laceybaier_ hi ..... how much Greek yogurt do you recommend per serving?
@@sheilapockett4856 - If you find out, please let me know😀
Any suggestions on my current recipe?
1/2 Banana

1/2 Avocado
~6 Baby Carrots

Handful of Spinich
1/2scoop Protein Powder
1cup Almond Milk
1/2cup Plain Greek Yogurt

Wait how do you add the honey because I tried that and it I was just clumpy or froze up because of the ice.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS
Great video! I bought the vanilla protein...I love it! and I have a vitamix I've used for years. Thank you for the great protein recipe. They are great!
Could you do more smoothie videos please what other protein powders do you use ?
When you freeze your smoothies, do you take them out the night before to thaw? How long do they take to thaw to the right texture? I would love to prep smoothies ahead of time so I don't have to be the guy running the vitamix at 5am lol
Thank you for explaining how to look for "good" protein powder
Can you use vanilla extract for some vanilla or is there a better option?
So I can’t have a banana or any kind of milk. Can you tell me how to substitute, water for the milk and something for the banana?
How much protein powder do you use for your smoothies and milk amount
Is there an alternative for protein powder?
I think I’m hooked on the Green Machine!!! It is soooooo DELICIOUS 😋 I can’t wait to try all the other ones!
I love your simple smoothie recipes
Try adding flax seed to it. I have it almost every day.
These recipes look amazing! Thanks so much!

How much milk do you put in?
Just a cup
Which whey powder?
Are there certain measurements first these?
do you have any smoothies made with tea?
Do we need protein powder for all of them or is it okay to make them without them
You can make them without protein powder. You can use alternatives like peanut butter, chia seeds, hemp hearts and nuts.

Cinnamon is great to add to any protein shake. Yummy flavor and stabilizes blood sugar.
I'm worried about the sugar as I'm a diabetic who is no longer on insulin. What do you recommend as a low sugar protein smoothie?
Viva Valentine Substitute shoe soles and leather laces for fruit and add as much ground meat as you’d like. Plenty of protein and almost zero sugar.
Have a question. The last smoothie you made said Vanilla cupcake" was confused from watching you put Mango and pineapple. Is that the vanilla cupcake?
Gina B its the vanilla protein powder she mixes in to give it that taste 😊 you have the first half correct but the vanilla powder adds the taste
Amazing! I will definitely give a try! Thank you for sharing! For PB&J do I have to use frozen strawberry or I can try another fruit as well like banana?
I had the same question!
How about hempseed for protein?
I have been lokinf for some new idears to chang up the flavor thack you.
Wow! The smoothes looks yummy 😋
great video! how much milk do you use?
Is Nutrilite protein powder good to add in smoothies??
Is plant base protein powder smoothies good for you?
They are but a lot of them are heavy in metals. You have to do some research to find a low heavy metal one.
What can I use instead of protien powder??? Plzz repl😪😪😪y

Carol Asbury It’s fairly easy to eyeball.
Depends on the size of your blender. Take a guess.
