Even though yesterday was a holiday, I went to work all day. I get more done when I am the only one there, and I don't mind because I got a lot done, and that helps with my sanity :-)
I was so busy working that I forgot to eat lunch! Bad, I know. On the way home from work I was famished, and I knew dinner would still take a while, so I bought a mini buffalo chicken tauquito from 7-11. Not the best choice, but better than nothing.
Dinner was brown rice with hot sauce, asparagus and sausage:
Later on in the evening I had a Green Monster which I loaded with a small pot full of lightly steamed spinach, 1 banana, 1 scoop amazing grass, 1 T nutella, 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond breeze and ice.
I also performed surgery on a pomegranate and got out these little pretties:
This morning I wanted to use some of them, so I tossed them in none other than a Green Monster. Told you I am obsessed.
Today's monster contained a pot full of lightly steamed spinach, 1/2 cup of POM arils, 1 cup almond breeze, ice and a scoop of chia seeds. In case I haven't told you yet - I LOVE chia seeds.
(My GM filled this glass about 3 times).
Breakfast also included this:
How do you keep your immunity up during the winter months?

My "Green" monsters always turn out brown and icky looking..lol. Yours looks great!
I am ALL over the GMs this this of year! I also drink an EmergenC or two every day!
I love green monsters!! I keep my immunity up by taking lots and lots of vitamins!
ive still never tried a Pomegranate! and i take vitamen C tablets everyday! they are so good..like candy
i make sure i'm taking my vitamins (especially when the fiance is sick!) and getting enough sleep-i think being low on sleep makes it harder for your body to fight off anything you're coming down with
Do you put in a whole scoop of Amazing Grass?? I'm still trying to figure it out. haha..
Keep your immunity up, I'm on day 4 of H1N1 and it's not pretty. Although it's not the worst flu I've had, it steals every ounce of energy you have!!! Extra incentive to keep drinking GM's!! :)
To tell you the truth I don't do anything extra for my immunity in Winter. I take vitamins as usuall and eat what I normally eat. I've never had flu and get the odd cold, but in the warmer seasons. So I can't help thinking if you're gonna get a cold you're gonna get one and there's nothing you can do about it (that's my opinion anyway :-)

Okay, you're making me feel like I really need to try a green monster! During the winter (and all the time) I take a multi vitamin everyday, try to eat healthy, drink lots of tea and water and listen to my body to rest when it needs to!
I think GMs are the best way to keep your immune system healthy :) I really need to drink more of those GMs
I tried a GM a while back and couldn't really get into it. I think it's because I like to chew my food, but yours looks really good! I love Pomegranates and should get to the one I have chillin in my kitchen!
I try to drink plenty of liquids and wash my hands a lot, but I still seem to get sick. Oh well!
I have been slacking in my green monsters, and it shows in my skin :( I am loving TJ's red super drink and in general just making sure that I keep up the exercise and veggie intake. I wrote a guest post on staying well naturally for On a Lobster Placemat awhile back. I definitely do my best to stay well without meds!
