That’s a lot of sugar and not a lot of protein for a "weight loss" shake
Sounds great! I have a different variation where I substitute the spinach for kale (more vitamin dense) and add 1/8 avocado (to make creamier), and 1 tbsp chia seed to keep me feeling fuller, longer.
How is there only 5g of carbs in here? A half cup of pineapple would have ten alone (eight net).Not to mention the banana and the almond/peanut butter,
WOW!! My daily allowance of sugar is 24 gr. and this is a whopping 23 gr.
I believe the 23 g is in 20 fl oz. Would you be drinking that much ?
