Indian Fashion Blog - Health Diaries Vol 2: Smoothie on the Go

It has been a while I did a fitness post. Well, my Instagram posts are flooded with food pictures but if only I had the time to cover everything on my blog. I see everyone is on the move with never ending to-do list. I hate to see people eating all crap food. You are what you eat! I totally believe in this fitness mantra. 

Things don't happen overnight. It is a lifestyle that you need to sustain forever. One takes time to form habits and it is all about repeating good habits. I just feel bloated and disgusted after my helter-skelter eating habits and no workouts for 2-3 days in a row. You cant keep slacking and justifying that you have been slogging your ass off throughout the day. Make sure you execute your plan and suck it up. 

Nothing calms down my frayed nerves than a good workout. I got the time to try some of the smoothies and trust me they are time saving quick recipes.

This is a yummy fruit smoothie. It includes pineapple, kiwi, apple and orange juice with crushed ice. 

This is my favorite smoothie. I have a thing for chocolates and this is the perfect nutrient packed smoothie post workout or as post workout dinner if you end up hitting the gym late in the night. 

Ingredients:

It includes 1/2 banana, 1 date, crushed ice, 1 tbsp ground flax powder, 1/4 cup almond and 1 tbsp chocolate whey protein (If you do not want carbs at all you can skip the banana. I put only few slices of it to make it sweet along with 1-2 dates) 

A perfect green smoothie on the go!
It includes spinach leaves, 1 carrot,  half a banana, few pieces of apple, crushed ice and water if required. 

Some of the other smoothie options could be: 
Spinach and strawberry
1/2 cup low fat yogurt, 2 cups of water, 1 banana, 1 cup sliced strawberries, 2 cups spinach, honey or maple if you prefer sweet 

Beetroot 
1 beetroot, 1 carrot, 1 apple, 1/5 lemon juice 

Fruit smoothie for the morning 
1 cup strawberries, 1 cup kiwi, 1 cup fresh orange juice.

The trick is not to add to many fruits as it has fructose which is sugar and carbs heavy. 

Cheers to fit life!
