Green smoothies yay or nay for you?

PM you have no spine.  You hide behind a block and feel you carte Blanche to say whatever you want. You got busted again! You pass out bad information, you call people names and you are one of the most uneducated postops on the boards. If you want to confront me..come out from behind that block and say what you want to say.  If not. Shut your pie hole and go away.  You have nothing constructive to add. You may not like my delivery I could care less. If someone has fail written all over their post I am going to try to advise them no matter how stubborn they are.  

Since the Poodle has you blocked, I'll quote this so she won't have to log out to read it.  Again.

  My sister from another mister!!

It would be great if there was any proof that said "fact" was true. Doubly so if it had ANY relevance to the discussion at hand, even as some sort of indicator of personal character.

You are being pedantic.  Adjectives certainly can be used to call someone names.  For example, stupid, fat, ugly, etc are all adjectives.  They are also used to call someone names.  

I am not certain if your response was to me, or to someone else here.  I certainly didn't "attack" you -- but rather, I called you on a seemingly cheap shots you made at someone that you've blocked.  I understand that you may not like the tone of Chili's responses, but that doesn't mean that it's okay to categorically call upon others to disregard her.  In fact, I look more at content than at tone -- and her content is excellent and certainly not "old school" -- 

Moreover, it's based on the long term success post-op.  

That said, I don't intend to beat this dead horse any longer.  I do hope that you will see fit to apologize for name calling, however.  Judging from other posts you've made, it does seem beneath you.  

Absurd. You're calling her names. At least be honest about that much. Chili has never used lame excuses, when she calls someone a name, she admits it.

And she's never been a prison guard. Where the heck did that come from?

Semantics. And Chili does not actually work at a correctional facility, so that is name calling. 

Cut it the hell out.

Well done on your weight loss and health Poodlemac!  Best of luck in your future.  If your doctor told you to eat that way, then follow his plan.  I would like to meet Dr. Davis and Dr. Weiner.  I think they are pioneers in this way of thinking about WLS.

I think you should taste test all of these smoothies and report back your findings.  Do it now before you have surgery so you'll know which ones you like best.

If you wear glasses or contacts, take them off/out before you drink the smoothie so the color doesn't put you off.  You also drink them out of a stainless steel water bottle to hide the color.

Great link.  Thanks for sharing  

I'm going to try a few. Many don't appeal to my tastes. I tend to use less fruit and plain water as the liquid in the smoothies I make. I've not tried any of these so I can't comment on them, but one of my favorite green smoothies has blueberries, spinach, part of a banana, and cinnamon. I could use plain Greek yogurt as protein. And it's not a green color!   I don't have protein powder right now but I have Greek yogurt.  I put them in travel mugs and drink them through straws. 

This post was never intended to spiral out of control as it did with the comments.  Chilipepper and I disagree. She's a veteran, I'm new here. I find her tone unfriendly and bullying but that doesn't mean what she has to say isn't valid info for new people.  It simply isn't my path and I will work with doctors who will work with me to be successful in my journey. What I dislike is her condescending attitude toward me. Will I block her? No. Will I continue to post? Yes. There are different paths to the same destination.   What famous person stated about the road less traveled and that making all the difference?  Perhaps my path will be uphill and rocky. It just might offer the best view. I can let you know when I get there.

For those of you *****ached out to me privately or offered compassionate support on this thread, thank you.
