juicing

i dont know whose idea this is (well, it is actually mine) but the husband and i have decided we need to reboot our systems. after eating out every meal in canada we needed to get our bodies back on track. we coincidently decided to watch a documentary the week we got home called  fat, sick, and nearly dead. its all about juicing. we had the idea before we even watched this, but it just made it that much more clear that we have got to do it....or at least try.

im not into the whole juice cleanse or starve yourself and only drink lemon juice thing. this is not what this is. this is simply a reboot. we are on day 3. im not going to lie, its so dang hard. day 2 was the worst though. i do have to admit it is getting better. we are only doing it for 6 days (until we head to utah for a month) and so im half way there! ugh. 

maybe if i write about it i will be more determined to stick with it. if anyone knows me at all then they know i love my sweets. i have a major sweet tooth. this is not what my fridge normally looks like (well half of it does cuz the husband is a health freak, but the other half usually consists of chocolate milk, cookie dough, ice cream..you get the idea). our juices consist of fruits and veggies. only. yum (sarcastically written). i do have to admit the kale, spinach, apple, carrot, lemon is so far the best. the broccoli, beet, and ginger not so good. 

the husband is a juice master now. if it wasnt for him i dont know if i could make it. he whips up some pretty great juices and even stays so determined and positive when we forget our juices and go to a 3 hour long movie only to come out with rumbling stomachs and almost death of starvation. only 3 more days...
