I've been following JJ SMITH since 2016. And I have admit I was skeptical at first. I had tried other things before that worked only temporarily. When I started with her on the 10 day Green Smoothie cleanse, I was tired of not feeling good and feeling like my body was letting me down due to having spinal nerve damage, tingling in my feet and legs, sluggish and not sleeping well. I stuck with it, lost 8 lbs, but I also noticed I was upbeat, not so sluggish. I stayed with her because she teaches you to get to know your body. The Green Smoothies for Life goes more into what it takes, how to eat clean, moving your body, she continues to give you the tools, motivation and fabulous recipes to make a HEALTHY lifestyle change, not some up and down diet no she wants you healthy. I went from 190 lbs to right now today 163 lbs. My skin is glowing, my body is rejuvenating itself and although I still have doctors to see, I'm doing it. I turned 50 years old in November, I had a lot of challenges, but because of JJ I never quit and I can see the difference in what it means to eat clean and get healthy. Thank you JJ Smith may you continue to change people's lives one day at a time. Blessings always!

I was so in love with this book that I shared it with one of my friends. Then I had to buy me another copy and I have it on my Kindle. When I use the recipes in this book I feel and look so much better the recipes are easy and delicious.

A weight-loss journey we know is to be hard; in this Book, JJ has given us a way on how not to give up on the journey or the life style of healthy eating with her new book. Finally, the best all-inclusive weight-loss solution is here. This book is not just a good read and looks pretty, but it gives us ALL the tools to be successful in a healthy life style by losing the weight and keeping it off. Losing weight is more than “eating less and working out more”. With this book we can EAT, EAT, EAT and not feel guilty, because JJ has taught us how to eat Clean. No more getting into a program where you have to force yourself to fall in love with chalky tasting shakes or bland, unattractive food portions. This book goes beyond what you put in your mouth, but it teaches us what causes weight to be stagnate and how to break through the barrier. It is an all in one package (Eat, Detox, Hormonal Balance, Move and Mental Mastery). To top it off, she gives you access on how to join the family and stay connected for your support system, at the convenience of your phone, tablet, computer. You do not have to take time out of your busy schedule to drive to a location to get the information you need. Your only trip after work is to the grocery store!!! Well Done JJ Smith!

Some of this book are repeated from her other books. But it does give a lot of information about maintaining the diet for life. It includes more recipes that are helpful although they are heavy on greens. Great for someone who likes them but I don’t.

Delicious healthy what more can you ask for, perfect way to get in vegetables and fruits in the family diet.

I completed JJ Smith's 10 day cleanse successfully. I then segued into this book--30 day Green Smoothies for Life and pretty much followed it to the letter. My advice to the critics is, before you embark upon this plan, know and understand what you are doing and what it means to you. Number one--it is not a diet!! The 10 day book is meant to cleanse/detox--to rid your body of all the gunk, the junk, the cravings and be a re-setting of a new way of eating--for life! The 30 day book is to get you in the habit of making and incorporating the green smoothies as part of a new healthy way of living. So when you start out you need to have goals for yourself-- for when you get to "the other side." If you have no purpose--or at least a clear understanding of one, you will become frustrated, make excuses, cheat, falter and fail. The expectations can't come from the book or the author --it must come from within. For me, I am a student of the healthy lifestyle, but being human--I have backslid. I used the book to re-set, re-think and re-establish the healthy way I want to look, feel and be. The 40 days gave me time to assess how my body felt without eating the bad stuff and the difference and changes I began to experience with consuming only the good stuff. What does my body want? What is it asking for? What does it need?? I learned that my body feels and looks best when I am eating a majority plant-based diet. I have not yet committed to being either vegan or vegetarian, but I'm going to start with at least a 90% plant-based diet. I will give my body what it needs and what it asks for---not what my eyes want. As I approach the last few days of the 30 day book, I am looking forward to adopting one green smoothie as a meal replacement per day indefinitely. I've made it work for me and it fits my lifestyle. I hope this is helpful to those who are considering this plan as well as for those who may have tried it and did not find success. It can work--but only if You work it!
