Today’s post is sponsored by Smoothie King, but my content and love for their Meal Replacement Smoothies is all my own! Take the challenge as part of a low-calorie diet and daily exercise program.
It’s a new year and we all know that change begins in the mind. I know with new year resolutions, we can get down on ourselves if we don’t reach a specific goal. I’m a firm believer that small changes turn into big changes, and big changes turn into healthy habits. I’m starting the new year with a simple goal: being consistent with incorporating smoothies into my meal planning. I slacked off towards the middle of last year, but now I’m ready to get back to what I know works. I’m a big fan of meal replacement smoothies, especially for breakfast – which is why I decided to join the Smoothie King #ChangeAMeal Challenge to kick off the new year!
To join the challenge, just follow these 4 easy steps:
- Replace one meal a day with a meal replacement smoothie
- Choose sensible meals
- Exercise at least 30 minutes a day
- Stick with it
Meal replacement smoothies are protein-packed, filling, and nutritious! They are also perfect for on-the-go or when you just don’t have time to prepare a meal. This will also help me stay on top of my nutrition goals. I love that Smoothie King’s meal replacement smoothies are all 400 calories or less, and they are packed with at least 10 grams of protein per 20 oz smoothie!
Smoothie King’s meal replacement smoothies include the following:
- The Shredder™ — Chocolate, Strawberry, Vanilla
- Lean1™ — Chocolate, Strawberry, Vanilla, Pineapple Mango
- Original High Protein — Banana, Lemon, Pineapple
- Coffee High Protein — Vanilla
- The Activator® — Chocolate, Vanilla
- Gladiator® — Chocolate, Strawberry, Vanilla
- Vegan — Dark Chocolate Banana, Nutty Super Grain, Mango Kale
BUT FIRST, COFFEE!
I love coffee, and one of my favorite smoothies from Smoothie King is the Coffee High Protein: Vanilla (or Almond Mocha) meal replacement smoothie. The Mango Kale smoothie, which is also vegan-friendly, is another favorite. See how easy it is to replace a meal and reach your goals when you have these delicious flavors?

This sounds like a great way to ease yourself into loving smoothies :) Replacing some meals with smoothies can be an easy but delicious way to kickstart weight loss, although I do prefer making my own smoothies from scratch so I can control all of the ingredients (like sugar and fat). These flavors do sound yummy though!
