We're not dead!! Yay!

Well, the world did not end, which is good because I bought a crap load of produce last night.  I started my juice fast today and I will do it through Christmas Eve.  This morning I had apple, carrot ginger juice!  Very yummy!

Today I will be working and then taking Milo to the vet.  He needs one more set of shots before we can get him fixed.  He'll be 7 months in January and I'm afraid he's gonna start spraying. :/  I'm going to the gym tomorrow with a friend.  I'm gonna run on the treadmill and maybe do some stationary biking!  Yay for getting back to running.  It's been TOO long.  Happy Friday!

Update: 

 Here's mid-morning Mean Green snack juice! I had to substitute zucchini for kale because I couldn't find any kale last night and I forgot to get spinach!  It made almost double what's in the cup, and I still have lunch juice, snack juice and dinner juice to go!  This is crazy!

WOW

I've been meaning to watch that documentary Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead for months now, and I finally did tonight. WOW. WOW. WOW.  Truly amazing stuff.  I even teared up a couple of times.  :)  In fact, I'm making a grocery list as we speak.  I've been wanting to do a juice fast for a while so watching this was perfect timing.  I am only doing a 3 to 5-day fast because of the holiday coming up. I'm excited though.  The only thing that's worrying me really is the cost of the produce.....

(It's my grocery list and I can misspell things if I want!!!)

We shall see!  The plan is to head to the grocery in the morning and check it out!  I may have to modify to fit my budget. 

Day 3

Snow day today! No school!

Whelp....day 2 went down the tubes around 3:00 p.m.  :(  I could not stop snacking!! I did do my workout last night though, with some major pushing from hubby.  Not sure how I feel about it.  It seemed too simple.  I will try day 2 and then decide if I want to continue with it.  Milo was not terribly impressed with it either.  During the foam-rolling portion he was intrigued....but quickly lost interest.  Smart kitty!

For breakfast this morning I had carrot apple juice and it was so yummy.  I LOVE the color.  It's so vibrant!!  Check out that awesome mug too.  I got a set of them in December's PopSugar Must Have box.  Way cool!

I just want a big fuzzy blanket this EXACT color!

Hopped up on the juice.

Weigh in is tonight!!!  I didn't mention it before but I'm participating in a weight loss competition locally.  I had to pay $40 to participate and whoever loses the largest percentage each week gets $40 and then the overall winner gets $160.  I needed some motivation!!  Anyhow so I'm trying to keep it to liquids today lol to help with the weigh in.  My tummy hates me right now too so liquids are probably better anyhow.  For breakfast I had a Shakeology chocolate shake. I had gotten 3 samples of this in my last klutchclub box.  It's good.  I like it, doesn't have as much of an aftertaste as other protein shakes.  Here's what came in that box. (Hint - hemp hearts are AWESOME.)

I had to run to Wal-Mart (the horror!!!) today while the kids were in school instead of running because I had to pick up the stuff for their advent calendars!!  Boy child got a Lego calendar and girl child is getting makeups and other girly type things.  When I got home I was starving so I busted out my juicer and made lunch!!  I drank 1 carrot, 1 apple and 1 pear.  Yum!! 

 I'm a little nervous about the weigh in!  I want the moneys!!!  I'll let you know how it goes.  Cross your fingers and toes!

Or if you could do this; that'd probably work too.
