Daywalker Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 (edited) All was well until 10minutes ago i had one of Jonathans "smoothies". Ingredients:Water, oats, pea protein powder, banana, cinnamon (greatest first). To make it drinkable, i added more water, a little agave syrup and a spoon of peanut butter to mine. About 700ml. It was quite tasty. ... Now i just feel sick ... Lessons learned: -Drink Jonathans smoothies careful and slow and stop immediately when you feel full!- Never have more than 400ml at one time! - If in doubt, leave it out! - Be within 12m of the next toilet when drinking it! Aaah, burping never felt so good! Edited December 3, 2006 by Daywalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 what are oats doing in something you're about to drink? That must have been ultra thick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odidnetne Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Yeah, I remember Jonathan saying he put oats in his smoothies and I thought he was crazy, and that it would be like drinking mud, but I can imagine the bathroom afterwards might feel good.

jonathan Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Hey now - they are top quality, highly nutritious meal replacement smoothies! I cannot help it if you ruin it by adding peanut butter! Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollegeB Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Man I like to do smoothies with oats and peanut butter then spirulina, fruits, powders, oh yeah some water, soy milk, ground flax. Its meal replacement alright, then I have lunch or dinner or whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 No such thing as a meal replacement...that should just be a thick liquid to wash your real food down with...real food meaning the new jar of peanut butter since you just put a whole jar in the smoothie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonzen Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 I have yet to add oats to my smoothies but now I am intrigued. The thing I have been doing lately is something I really like.......instead of water I use the cold herbal tea that I have left in the teapot and cold yerba mate too. With frozen organic blueberries and Vega, some powdered flax (like CollegeB) , maybe a half frozen organic banana and some soy milk.......Yum! I really like pumpkin seed butter, but man, it is really expensive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joelbct Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Ah you guys are so inspiring, but I fear my food routine is suffering a bit lately for personal reasons... Oh well- Anyway, I eat oatmeal every weekday morning, love it, not sure it would go well in cold smoothies tho? My fave are frozen berries, banana, soy milk, a couple ice cubes, and nutiva hemp powder- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollegeB Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Joel if she's messing with your food and lifting cut the line! Vegan bodybuilding is what we live for, everything else can wait until after lifting and post workout meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Vegan bodybuilding is what we live for, everything else can wait until after lifting and post workout meal. Perhaps this best sums us up! When I finally get around to working on the main website, I'll throw this quote up there somewhere Well put my man! That is the mentality I've had to have for the past 5 years to get this thing off the ground. We're finally making noise all over the place! Ok, back to the smoothies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CollegeB Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 well i've fallen away from that mentality a bit. I'm trying to get myself to believe there are probably some things I should put a head of a workout. I'm not a firm believer in that yet though, don't know if I ever can be. I definitely am trying to be flexible and if I need to I can delay a workout, especially if I need to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine oats adding to creaminess, unless you compromised and used half oats and half soymilk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanAndrew Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Oats definitely add more thickness. I don't know about creamy. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
