So, we said we were going to be "raw" not only by what we eat but by what we post. So there it is, I weighed myself this morning and there it is...
Losing 40 pounds will put me at 157, that would be great! I want to be at 145, but I'll take a win at 157.
Something unexpected is happening thanks to our juice feast in my household. My kids and S are totally getting into it! J had three apples, two bananas, 1/2 a lemon, and two oranges for breakfast this morning - juicing them of course. M had a hot pocket, BUT he also made a smoothie with strawberries and drank about 1/4 of my veggie drink! That's got to be better than a hot pocket and a coke for breakfast right? And he is 14, if he knows I want him to drink veggie drinks he's going to dig in his heals. LOL
S and I had the following recipe for dinner and breakfast this morning:
4 apples
6 carrots
thumb size of ginger
3 handfuls of kale
(no cucumber - I'm out)
4 stalks of celery
parsley
1 lemon
It made a lot but we drank it all!
I feel really good this morning and haven't been hungry at all. According to the article, The Different Juice Fasting Stages of Detoxification, on izocleanse hunger can be intense and we should be lathargic, but I feel great. My joints are soar though.
Yeah, I need a pedicure.
I don't have a lot of full body pictures of me because I am self conscious of the way I look. But here's at least one to remember my starting point. By the way, this is the most comfy couch in the whole world! It's at Ikea.
Talk to you soon!
Deonne,
ReplyDeleteLook what I found:
For weight loss, stick to green juices. Otherwise, other fruit juices can be included but to be drunk in the morning. The body will continue to melt away fats and with that, the healing reactions will happen.
