Kurt's Signature Morning Smoothie

Weighed in at 238.8 lbs this morning. Not as high as I expected, but naturally much higher than I'd like to be. At one point I was flirting with 210. I would be happy to be back there again. The last time I lost a bunch of weight, I did it by replacing my first meal of the day with a fruit smoothie. Even if I woke up at 11:30, my first meal always had to be this smoothie. I just happened to have the ingredients on hand, so that's what I made this morning.

  • 1 cup plain soymilk
  • 1 heaping cup frozen blueberries
  • 1 ripe banana



  1. Put everything in a blender with 1 cup of ice.
  2. Host the most boring episode of "Will It Blend" ever.





As it was blending, I threw in a teaspoon of Fiber Sure because more fiber means you feel more full. It adds about 25 calories, though. By rough estimates, each of the other ingredients has about 100 calories, so all told this is a 325 calorie breakfast. But Kendra stole a little less than half of it (what's left in the blender), so this was a very low-calorie breakfast for me. Probably less than 200.
