[Saga]

Been taking chlorella inconsistently, gonna try and step my game up. I am also adding a few more vits to my list:
-One A Day adult Gummies

Took my vits today (for the most part, taking chlorella and the rest of my msm tonight)

 

[Meritamen]

Been slacking a bit and missing my vitamins a day here and there. Also been lax with my water intake and smoothies. Time to get back on track.

I added a new vitamin today, Smoothie King has a Hair Skin & Nails vitamin. I've been doing a great job taking my vitamins daily!!!! I'm hoping to see a difference in my hair growth in the next few months.

Haven't checked in here for a while, I slacked for a bit but was able to pull myself up by the boot staps and get back on track...

Seamonster what does the maca do?

 

[Seamonster]

Maca balances female hormones, and increases fertility, it is good anytime we are under stress, had a baby, or have PMS. The side effects include increasing bust size, and hips.

Slacking hardcore, I took a few weeks off my vitamin kick. Probably like 2 weeks I'd say? My multi-vitamin is done so I have to pick up some tomorrow. I'm starting back on track today since I have enough of my multi-vitamin for 1 more dosage.

 

[Meritamen]

How is every doing so far?
I'm taking my vitamins more consistently and have been setting so fitness goals for myself. Trying to come up with a meal plan because my current diet is awful and all over the place. I need more protein in my diet so the shakes and smoothies will be a big help.

 

[Seamonster]

Added chlorella to my mix, I think it makes everything work better, I am bad about eating so the extra nutrition really helps.

 

[Meritamen]

Haven't been taking my vitamins but I have been good about drinking green smoothies each morning. It gives me tons of energy and tastes good too. Here's the one I make now, it makes about 16 oz of smoothie and is. much more simple:

Ingredients
1 cup Soy milk
1/2 cup Açai juice
1 serving green super food powder
1 serving whey protein powder
1 scoop Hemp seed/flaxseed oil (for omega fatty acids)
1 scoop Coconut/olive oil (for healthy fats)
1 handful of spinach
1 Banana

Combined ingredients in blender, blend into a smoothie, add some ice cubes and drink to your health.
