Raspberry Chocolate Protein Smoothie

How much longer can I keep having smoothies for breakfast until I cave in?

First week of winter isn’t too bad in Auckland but I’m heading back to New Plymouth for work this weekend (teaching at the Naturopathic College of NZ).  I’m going to attempt to continue my smoothie ritual every morning in NP, wish me luck!
