I was the last person anyone would ever have expected to be drinking kale for breakfast. At 35 pounds overweight, I was addicted to fast food and never exercised.

Three years ago I lost those 35 pounds by taking care of myself, learning how to eat when I was hungry and stop when I was full, and exercising.

But it wasn’t until this year that I discovered, quite by accident, how blending my greens in a Vitamix would lead to clear and glowing skin, sustained and increased energy; and may have saved me from a surgical procedure I dreaded.

After getting my diagnosis, and not being sure what to do, I started drinking smoothies as a way to get more fruits and vegetables into my diet. I started slowly at first, and noticed increased energy right away. After two weeks of adding greens into my smoothies, I began to notice glowing skin. After two months of drinking green smoothies I stopped having the symptoms that drove me to change my eating behavior. Now? I am like a TV evangelist about Vitamix and green smoothies. I learned taht I have the power to change my body by using tools like the Vitamix and nutritious foods.

Thank you, Vitamix!
