Pineapple, Grape and Watermelon Smoothie

Pineapple, Grape and Watermelon smoothie is a great breakfast choice that packs delicious fruit into your morning routine to get your day started in a wonderfully nutritious direction.

The good news: In October, I’m coming up on my two-year anniversary of having quit smoking.  The bad news: I packed on pretty much additional weight in the process. 

We’ve all heard the saying “pick your battles” and that’s exactly what I did.  The quitting smoking battle was, and has been, a long hard fight!  I came out of it a bit battered and bruised but still stronger in so many ways.

Now it’s time for me to wage another battle of epic proportions… The battle of the bulge! 

I know it won’t happen overnight and that I’m probably looking at many, many months before I reach my goal, but it’s a journey I’m now ready to take. 

On July 5th, I officially started my healthy eating and smaller portions plan. 

I’m also incorporating plenty of water and exercise as a part of my daily routine. 

Good thing for me, I love my fruits and veggies and always have. Now skipping breakfast is NOT an option. Here’s a good breakfast that will pack in all sorts of delicious fruits and get your day started off in a wonderfully nutritious direction:

The easy instructions;

• In a blender, add red seedless grapes, pineapple chunks, watermelon chunks and approximately 3/4 cup of almond milk..
• Blend until smooth. 
• Enjoy!

Now let’s see if I can attack this portion control thing and kick it in the butt!  I’m off for a little cardio…

Enjoy your day!
