I just wanted to let you all know that I have not started to do green smoothies on a regular basis, just a few times a week to start but I started out 2 months ago by using vitamineral green and for the past 15 years my menstral cycle has been very regular- 28 days and lasts for 5 days but the last 2 months on vm green my cycle is still regular but now lasts 3 days, not sure why but I am not complaining!!:)

Loving VMG

I have been drinking green smoothies for about 3 weeks now. I have a lot more energy and mental clarity. I have also noticed that I have lost some weight and I don’t feel as bloated as I have been… I love them.. I have not missed a day yet!!!!!

What got me to your site was the Blendtec Blender I purchased. I have been making them for my family as well. My husband is very picky. He does not like green veggies or avocado. Guess what is in his green smoothie. I am trying to get his system normal so he can get off the Nexium. He told me if I make them up he will drink them. So far he has been true to his word. He is looking in fridge to find the mix. My daughter gave her 13 month old a taste and she screamed for more literally.

We also are making your granola and putting our own spin on it. My dad who does not like anything healthy loves it. I am in the process of deciding on a dehydrator.

I love the recipes, trying more of them everyday. I tell everybody that is willing to listen.

I also have been using the coconut oil and my skin is so much better.

Keep up the good work. We are getting educated everyday…

I’m working on a testimonial since I’ve did 12 steps last year. I’m hosting a weight loss challenge on my blog and want to give 12 steps as one of the prizes, if that’s ok!

Robyn’s 12 Steps digital book is so excellent. I have a few books about raw food, whole foods, green smoothies, but it wasn’t until Robyn’s book The Green Smoothie Diet that I felt I could try the smoothie thing out … at least for 30 days. I purchased my first turbo blender (not blendtec) and set out to make the smoothie for my husband and myself. My hubby took to them immediately, which shocked me so I almost had a heart attack. He hasn’t even asked if our 30 days is up yet. I’m not good about chewing all the veggies in a salad type way, but i sure can drink just about anything as long as there is fruit in it. I mean when was the last time I ate 1/2 of a raw beat … ahem! NEVER!!! until Green Smoothie that is and Robyn’s recipes. How fabulous! I’m working thru 12 Steps very slowly, but I did skip ahead and learned how to make sprouts. I make about 4 cups a week now, and of course they go in smoothie, soup, stew, chili, sandwiches, even as a primary green in the event i do have a salad! Thanks again Robyn for making this do-able and please keep teaching us.

“What did you learn? Do you like the recipes? Do you tell others about it? How does it compare to other information in the nutrition space?”

Over the years, I have learned a lot of good information about nutrition, but I have never been able to follow through with what I know. So many nutrition gurus make it sound like you need to go to extremes to be healthy, and it’s very difficult to follow these programs and still participate in social events. Robyn insists on good nutrition, but she is not extreme. The Twelve Steps to Whole Foods program is something I can do, with my children! Robyn makes fantastic nutrition available to everyone including single/working moms and families with low budgets.

The program is set up to work at your own pace. If you are overwhelmed, you can go slowly and introduce one step per month. If you are ready to make big changes, you can do everything at once.

Robyn’s recipes taste good! She includes many recipes that reluctant children and adults will enjoy.

I tell people about Robyn’s green smoothies all the time. If someone is ready to make changes in their diet, I tell them about the Twelve Steps to Whole Foods Program. This is a program that I can recommend without worry – it is not extreme, and it is do-able!

Hi Robyn,

You have asked for testimonies for the green smoothie idea–I am wavying my hand wildy to share. I am 43 and consider myself to be a healthy eater–make homemade ww bread grinding the wheat berries, jucing, smoothie’s every morning (they weren’t green smoothie’s—BIG difference) etc. I have pursued this healthy lifestyle for many yeasrs and have 7 dc. BUT it wasn’t until I stumbled across Green Smoothie Girl that all my health knowledge fell into place for me. I have prayed for years to find “the right way to eat”. As you know there are many camps in this healthy search and I was so frustrated.with nothing quite working and still not feeling like I was achieving optimal health. I think you have been and anwer to prayer as I have sought God’s guidance in this whole issue.

Since drinking my green smoothie everyday for over a month I can’t believe the change in my energy level, not getting sick as easy, able to work out longer, and lost 5 #’s so far and still losing, craving healthy foods, feeling content nutrtionally–not feeling the need to snack on junk food etc. I crave my green smoothie every morning and even took my blender with us on vacation so we could have our smoothies. My 8 dd said, “Mommy, please don’t stop making these green smoothie’s–from the mouth’s of babes.:)

My 16 ds who tolerants my “healthy eating habits” fights for his green smoothie in the mornings.

I make enough to have 2 cups extra for my afternoon snack. Can’t get enough of this “good thing”.

I tell all my frineds about you and your website hoping they will convert and have better health. Thanks you for this simple yet powerful nutrtion breakthrough.

God’s Blessings on you as you continues to bring us great recipes and information. I am waiting om my “raw” nuts to arrive can’t wait to get th em.

Also I can’t believe how wonderful your recipes are again it a revolutionary break through for healthy eating that is sensible and tasty.

Blessings,

Sharon
