1 cup of peach yogurt
2 tablespoons sugar

Starting with milk, add all but the ice to the blender. Pulse the blender a few times to blend in the peach. Cover the blender with the top, increase speed to high, and feed the ice through to cover. Blend until smooth.

Whey Protein Weight Loss Smoothies

Whey protein weight loss smoothies are often included in the diets of professional sportspeople and body builders for a variety of reasons. Whey protein, which is made from cow's milk during the process of making cheese, is considered to be a high quality source of protein that is extremely low fat and easily digestible.

Protein accelerates the growth and repair of muscles and is great as part of a weight loss plan, as it does not turn to fat like carbohydrates do, and makes you feel full and less likely to snack between meals.

Many vegetarians drink whey protein smoothies as they give them plenty of protein, which is often lacking from a diet that does not include meat.

Whey protein powder can be purchased from any health food or fitness store and come in a wide range of flavors, such as strawberry, chocolate and vanilla. When making a whey protein weight loss smoothies, choose a flavor that will complement the other ingredients. By adding the powder to a delicious, nutritious smoothie, you have the benefit of all the vitamins and goodness packed into the fruit, and a much tastier way of taking whey powder than as a bland protein drink

How To Make Whey Protein Weight Loss Smoothies

To your smoothie maker, add your fruit, yogurt (unsweetened or Greek yogurt for even more protein) and skim milk. Some people add ice to their smoothies, but it depends on your personal taste. Ice is a great addition to smoothies on hot summer days. Mix the fruit, yogurt and milk until smooth, and then add your scoops of whey protein powder. Check the instructions on the packet to make sure you add the right number of scoops to your smoothie. Mix it again; making sure all the powder is completely dissolved.

Delicious whey protein weight loss smoothies can be made with banana, blueberries and strawberries. The banana adds fiber and potassium–for a great energy boost–and gives the drink a thicker consistency. The strawberries are packed with vitamin C and the blueberries have antioxidant properties. For even more protein, use soy milk and almonds; add them to bananas and raisins for an alternative to the berry-based smoothie. The soy milk and almonds have high protein content, and the raisins add sweetness to make the smoothie tastier.

A whey protein weight loss smoothie makes a tasty, healthy breakfast that is ideal for those with busy lives and little time to sit down and enjoy a leisurely meal in the morning. You can even prepare the smoothie the night before and store it in the refrigerator overnight. For those following a weight loss plan, the whey protein smoothie can be used to replace lunch or dinner. If you want to make a savory smoothie, blast some vegetables in a blender and then add them to the other ingredients in your smoothie maker. Choose vegetables and fruits that go well together, such as bananas with carrots or pears with spinach. Do not forget to add your whey protein powder for all its health benefits.

Smoothie Danger #1:

Packing a Sugar Wallop

While fruit has traditionally been the central ingredient from which a smoothie was made, in many commercial versions, refined sugar is taking its place. In fact, many smoothies contain more sugar than a can of cola or a cupcake. The rows of flavored syrups behind smoothie bars are often made from pure corn syrup or other highly refined sugars such as beet or cane, and your smoothie may get several pumps. The added sugar content goes for ready-made "smoothie" drinks, too. Not only is this going to spike your calories for the day (most commercial smoothies range from 200 to 600 calories), you'll also feel a sugar high followed by an energy crash that will make you crave more sugar shortly afterwards to perk you up again.

Something else to beware of with corn syrup is a possible mild allergic reaction. Because of the high concentration of corn derivatives in many processed foods, it's common to develop an allergy or intolerance to it without your being aware. I myself discovered my own allergy to corn, which came on as symptoms similar to hay fever each spring, and disappeared after I limited my intake.
