Mamavation Monday Recipes! and a Special Offer!

I have been loosing weight and inches pretty steadily for the last few months and just wanted to share how I am doing it. I am not starving myself or drinking gross shakes or prepackaged food. I am drinking a shake that on its own tastes like cake mix even when you mix it with water which is what I did during BarkWorld though I don’t recommend because it isn’t as filling when you want it as a breakfast or lunch. It is a great snack for before or after physical activity to help rebuild muscles or for your kids instead of something that will make them crash before the game is over. When you make it for a meal you want to feel satisfied and happy after drinking it so I use light silk and most of the time I mix in some kind of fruit. Here are two of my favorite recipes.

Blueberry Shake!
2 Scoops Visalus Shake Mix
1 cup light Vanilla Silk
1/2 cups of blueberries
about a cup of ice
Blend and serve cold

Total Calories: 210 18 grams of protein, 23 vitamins and minerals, digestive enzymes, pre-biotics, and all the antioxidants from the blueberries. Only 172mg of Sodium!

 Papaya Shake!

2 scoops of Visalus Shake Mix
1 cup light vanilla silk
1/8 of a papaya (up to 1 cup)
about a cup of ice
…Blend and serve cold

Total Calories: 225, 18 grams of protein, 23 vitamins and minerals, digestive enzymes, pre-biotics, and all the amazing benefits of the papaya. Only 174mg of sodium!

I generally drink one shake a day have an apple with peanut butter or sometimes a pear and then a pretty big dinner with at least 5 servings of cooked vegetables (raw vegetables hurt my stomach) and dessert. Oh and don’t think the Two Little Cavaliers don’t want to share it all with me. They have both on separate occasions put their tongue in my shake and are always ready to share my apple, pear, banana, blueberries, or papaya. I did check to make sure they wouldn’t get sick after I caught them with their tongues on my shake and was told because it isn’t loaded with sodium and there isn’t any caffeine in it basically like they are getting a lick from your dinner plate with the spices and seasonings etc that they don’t necessarily need.
