Hey Deonne!
How'd it go this morning? I had kale, spinach, cucumber, lemon, ginger, parsley, and apples (there may be some other stuff, I don't remember). I made a lot though because S said he wants to do this with us! Woot-Woot! I even got J (13) to drink some.
On the way to work I was craving a cinnamon bun and pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks. Why-oh-why did we do this during pumpkin spice latte season????
Today for lunch I am going to eat an avocado and pumpkin seeds, I was running late and couldn't make a juice to bring with me. But that still RAW right?
Good luck today, Deonne! I am right here with ya!

Sidenote:
This is stuff Deonne already knows about me but if anyone else reads our little blog it may be helpful to know we are real people. I am a 38 year old mom of two boys (ages 14 and 13), I work for a company in SLC, UT, and have a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog named Henry (yeah, I had to include him).
I have always been active and at times even athletic, but I am 40 pounds over weight. I am 6' tall so it's not as noticeable on me as on shorter women, but I know it's there. I run Ragnar (200 mile relay race), 1/2 marathons a few times per year, and want to get into biking with Deonne. I can do all of these things, eat healthy (most of the time) and still not drop a pound. I have hypothyroidism and am on Synthroid. I would like to get off the Synthroid and have my thyroid function properly.
Deonne and I have both watched Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead by Joe Cross. It was so inspiring to me, he truly changed his life and those he touched while in America. So that's where we got this idea. We still haven't agreed upon an exact amount of time for our "juice feast" - I want 60 days and Deonne wants 45 so we'll see.......
BTW, Deonne is the writer, not me. I will write and be brutally honest, but look for beauty in her letters, not mine. :)
