Ice crusher to make smoothies?



Recommended Posts

Hi - I was wondering if anyone uses something to chop up ice at work to make a smoothie out of a slim fast? I thought about bringing the blender that chops ice - but it is kind of heavy to keep bringing it back and forth from home and work. Does anyone know if there is something small to crush up ice and slim fast for on the go or to keep at work?

Thanks

I use a Tribest Personal Blender- it's like a Magic Bullet, just sturdier which is good for the ice crushing. It's very portable. Just Google it- it's available several places.

Thanks I am looking it up now! They have the 100, 200 and the 300 - which do you have? Do you use it for anything other then the drinks, if not I may just need the 100. thanks

I have just the basic 100, and it's fine for my purposes.

I just bought the shake n' take smoothie make off of solutions website, since starting tomorrow I will be on full liquids and I wantto experiment with smoothies. If if works as well as everyone says it does I am going to buy the extra bottles and make an extra for lunch and put it in the fridge at work that way you don't have to worry about taking the blender with you.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
