Too much fruit sugar!

Looking back... during my 30+ days green smoothie trial, I added a lot of fruit to my smoothies!

For instance, I probably only added 1 to 1.5 servings of strawberries to my smoothie this morning. Granted, I added only 1 head of romaine (but romaine has a really strong taste!) and I ate it with raisins and nuts, but I can't believe how sweet my smoothies were!

This past week, my most common smoothie was one small apple, a carrot, 1/2 lemon, and spinach. It was a much more frugal smoothie!

No wonder I couldn't lose weight on those smoothies-- there was too much fruit fueling my sugar addiction!
