It would seem that there is quite a lot of controversy about smoothies, whether they are good for us or not.
A smoothie has even been compared to a bar of chocolate. The chocolate bar having less calories than a smoothie.
If a smoothie is drunk as part of a meal and considered as part of our calorie intake then it can't do any harm at all. In fact it can only do good because of the vitamins and fibre it contains.
If we drank a smoothie every day and continued to eat just as much as usual, yes we would gain weight - energy in needs to equal energy out. This theory applies to everything that we eat, whether it is a smoothie or chocolate, if we overeat then we will gain weight.
A smoothie is not responsible for weight gain - we are! Drink a smoothie, make an adjustment with the rest of your calorie intake for the day, or do a little more exercise.

How can I lose weight quickly?
As a fitness professional I have been asked this question time and time again. Even those people who know the answer still query how they can lose weight fast.
This blog is about helping people lose weight and making small changes so that before they know it they have lost weight and will continue to do so.
I am about to launch my new website that is FREE to the world! It will be your very own online desk top personal trainer designed to help you lose weight. It is pretty much ready to be launched, so I should have a date coming in the next few days.
So, can you lose weight quickly? Yes, but it won't stay lost for long.
If you want to shed a few pounds or a lot of pounds make a commitment to yourself today to stop whining about it and commit to making some changes now!
Committing to yourself today is a huge, and I mean huge, deal. Consider this the biggest change you'll have to make and all the other bits and pieces will be a piece of cake (oops sorry!).
Now just take some time to think about committing to yourself and next time you check my blog out you'll have another step to take.
