Let’s face the facts here. Despite what the books and nutritionists say, most smoothies though tasty will never come close to a sugary soda or an ice cream
milk shake. That’s the hard truth. It will be difficult to replace sodas with smoothies.
Initially, you may wish to slowly cut down on any sugary drinks
you’re consuming and drink a smoothie every day. Over time, try and replace the sodas with the smoothies. It will take effort but if you approach it in a slow and steady manner, it can be done.
Do not go to extremes and immediately give up all the sodas for smoothies. You’ll just be putting pressure and stress on yourself. Now, not only are you trying to inculcate a good habit that is foreign to you but you’ve also given up a bad habit that brought you comfort despite being detrimental to your health.
This is just too much to cope with. You’re not in a race. Go slow and your compliance will be much higher. Inch by inch, life’s a cinch. Yard by yard, life is hard.
