Smoothies are great if you make them from yogurt, fruits, milk and juices along with a bowl of cereal or a bagel. But, if you are talking about drinking a Slim Fast or other liquid meal replacement as you meal then no that is not a habit we would encourage. We want you to learn new habits for meal selection and portion control and that comes with daily practice and moving beyond temptation for what is easy but not the most nutritious.

I was wondering, are breakfast smoothies ok? I would be very handy, but i always thought that to get digestion and metabolism, mood, ect. started in the day you needed to eat first thing in the morning. Do shakes count as food?
