Macro Greens - Not so Yummy
Well with my diet at full speed and my exercise routines down its time to tweak just a bit. I notice that because I am trying to loose weight that I am just not getting enough vegetables. My Diet right now is high in protein with low carbs tapering off around 2 pm to no carbs. That in it self is not bad but when you throw in caloric restrictions to try and maximize the weight loss benefit it gets to be a bit much. So I decided to supplement my veggie intake with Macro Greens. You might have read about this in the recent Iron Man magazine but the articles have been around for while.
Macro Greens (also known as Miracle Greens) are a powder supplement that basically has 5 servings of veggies in one single scoop. So this morning was the first time I added them into my diet all I can say is yum…NOT. This stuff is hard to keep down I had to drink a little of the supplement and then a quick gulp from my coffee to keep it down. It tastes nasty as all get out I mixed mine with straight water my wife (also working out) wants to add it to her diet as well so she did the half apple juice half water. Needless to say this did improve the taste but only very slightly this is truly some bad tasting stuff.
One other side note is that they do create some gas so you might belch a few times I did and oh it was such an enjoyment to relive the wonderful taste.
