So here is the topic of the week To Juice or not to juice?

As you may not know I have been dieting since I was 8 years old, even though I know the key to keeping the weight off is to eat right and exercise, I still own a library of diet books. Yes, and I have tried all of them, even if only for a day or so. I know it’s pitiful. So what’s that got to do with juicing? After a month of dieting I just didn’t feel like I was getting anywhere. Well, patience is not my middle name either, but the Princess was up late one night watching Netflix and found this video call Fat, sick and nearly dead. It’s about a guy named Joe who spend 60 days roaming around the United States while juicing. It will open your eyes!

So Princess and I do a little research and then we spent the next 5 days juicing. Really I am not kidding you. Kale, carrots, cucumbers, and more other green leave things I would never have considered eating two weeks ago.

So if you want to get started we got the book and this little gem walks you through it all. It will give you phases to start with to see if you are a true juicer. That means if you don’t do the green baby, you are probably not true juicer. It’s fun and give you recipes of famous people. Now I have never been a big fan of Paula Abdul and after trying her green juice well let’s say I like her even less today, however, I am going to blend in some blueberries for a try at redemption!

Yesterday I truly had a rainbow of colors for lunch. Pretty amazing huh, to the left is green, orange and the purple beets.

Now to be fair, it has not been love at first sip. Princess can still hardly gag down the green ones, but of course, loves all the sweet ones. So favorites by far sweet potato (plus other stuff) with some cinnamon on top and my Citrus C special with killer grapefruit juice. So the results of week one? 3 pounds for me and 10 pounds for Princess!

Next week, combination Juicing and skinny foods! So stay tuned for more juicing fun! Oh BTW we bought the Breville Multi Speed.
