The Green Smoothies Diet Book vs. 12 Step Subscription vs. Biggest Green Smoothie Recipe Collection
Hi Robyn,
I’ve been lurking on the site for the past 2 months while I’ve been saving money for a Blendtec. I’m about ready to purchase one, but now I’m confused as to what literature I should purchase along with it. Would you explain the differences between your 12 step Subscription, the Biggest Green Smoothie Recipe Collection, and your new book The Green Smoothie Diet? Is everything in the 12 Step Subscription included in the Green Smoothie Diet Book? I don’t mind purchasing all three if they all contain different information, but I’d like to avoid duplication if possible. Also, I noticed that I can get the 12 Step Subscription free if I buy a Blendtec through your site. Will you offer any discounts on your book (when it’s released) with the purchase of a blender?
TIA. I have learned a lot from this site and am excited to start the Green Smoothies.

Sure, thanks for asking.
At the time of this writing, you get 12 Steps to Whole Foods for free. That includes 250+ recipes, plus a ton of information on how and why, with tips on saving time and money. This will change soon, as I have been preparing a full-blown course with DVDs, audios, a printed journal, and the whole course printed and bound. But for now, the $29.95 digital course is free when you go through the link on this site to buy a BlendTec (directly from the company).
The brand new recipe collection, The Biggest Green Smoothie Recipe Collection In the History of the World, is new in the store. (12 Steps does not contain this. It also does not contain the 101 Healthy Lunches collection. The vast majority of the other recipes ARE in 12 Steps, though.)
The Green Smoothie Diet is a brand-new book I authored available through Ulysses Press and arriving physically in hand this week. You can get it on this site, or on Amazon or hopefully in your favorite bookstore. The only discount is the fact that we ship it free on this site (which would cost you $3.99 on Amazon, though their discount makes it about the same, either place).
12 Steps to Whole Foods, and The Green Smoothie Diet, have different content. 12 Steps is a much BIGGER book/course/program. The Green Smoothie Diet goes into much more detail about GS, of course, with 50 GS recipes, and teaches you a method of detoxing (short-term), losing weight (mid-term) and going green for life (long term) leveraging this simple 10-minutes a day habit.
Whew. Hope that answers your Q’s!

Wow, that was a lot of info. I think based on what you said I will go with the 12 Step to start and get the other recipes once I get going. Thank you for taking the time to write all that out. Is there an ETA yet for the ‘full blown course’? It sounds like it will be great!
I think one to two months before the full course is available and manufactured.
I just received 1,000 copies of The Green Smoothies Diet here today. I am autographing all copies ordered on GreenSmoothieGirl.com.
Robyn,
I was thinking of waiting till your course comes out, but I’m anxious to get started. If I purchase the 12 step subscription, do I have to wait to get a chapter each month, or can I get all the info at once?
Thanks!
Robyn,
Did I read correctly, you will soon have 12-steps in a bound book format? Will this have a table of contents and index? Although I have the digital version and printed it out I would absolutely LOVE a book version. My printed copy has seen better days and I have sticky notes pointing out to my faves etc.
If this is true, when do you expect it to be available?
Regards,
Laura
