   This sounds yummy! I bet it looks really pretty too:-)

   I usually start off with oatmeal for breakfast, then move on to raw fruit. Mid-morning is carrot juice, then a nice salad for lunch.

   Maybe I”ll try this smoothie if I can fit it in!

   Thanks for the recipe.

   We would recommend trying for one day to swap out the oatmeal with a unique smoothie like the one above, and then seeing how you feel! Have fun!
