Which blender should I get?



Recommended Posts

@@laceemouse ice is a yes, and you definitely need something more than an immersion blender for that. Many plans will not allow fruit, especially in a smoothie, which is basically like injecting liquid sugar into your system.

I got a bullet and returned it because it was hard to clean. (Not THAT kind, the blender kind. I love my THAT kind.)

Bought a Ninja thinking it would do more. Returned it because I didn't use it for anything my blender couldn't do.

Bought a food' processor. Returned it. Too many pieces.

I used my regular old blender a few times, and my immersion blender much more often because it was easier to clean.

I needed a blender for all of three weeks and I didn't need another appliance on my counter.

Don't over buy. You won't need half the crap you think you do.

I bought the ninja so that it can do double duty of Soups and smoothies. That thing destroys, I put yogurt, Protein powder, ice, strawberries, spinach, and flax seeds and in about 5 seconds everything is liquified.

Yep. Agreed.

I already had a Ninja- and used it a bit in the beginning for Bariatric purposes, but now it's just for regular use when I'm cooking

A good old shaker/blender bottle with the mixer thing that looks like a jack is perfect for shakes- doesn't make too much air, easy to clean and take on the go. Mine has a bottom part that unscrews and holds the Protein powder dry until I need it. Easy Peezy.

Foamy Protein shakes suck lol

I use a Blender Bottle for my post morning workouts, it is quick and I make shakes up the night before.

But I also have a regular blender for more complex mixes of veggies and cooking.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
