Day 2

Today was rough, EVERYTHING I had ever eaten sounded soooooooooo good and I could practically smell and taste each food item when I thought about it.  I had some mad hunger pains but kept drinking my juice.  I even made it through a grocery store trip with the hubby and baby today.  But another day is done and as of this morning I lost 1 pound.........WOOT WOOT!!  Yeah I'll celebrate real big when that number adds up to about 30 or more.

The juices I had today were as follows...........

Morning: about two handfuls of spinach, 1 granny smith apple, 1 carrot, a thumb size piece of ginger root, 2 celery stalks, and half of a cucumber ---- I give it a 3 out of 5 stars (next time I won't use so much ginger)

Afternoon: 1 red bell pepper, 1 medium size tomato, about a cup of baby carrots, and 1 orange  ---- 4 out of 5 stars, this was very tasty even though there was tomato juice which I'm not a fan of........love tomato's though, lol

Evening: 1 yellow bell pepper, about 2 cups of pineapple, and a whole cucumber  ------  5 out of 5 stars........I love me some pineapple juice and I had to make this one a kind of "special treat" given I used so much fruit this time because everyone else was having pizza and it smelled wonderful so this kept my mind off from it and lifted my spirits.  Although I think from now on I will do the heavy fruit or real sweet ones in the morning for a jolt of energy and leave the leafy greens for dinner cause they make me sluggish.

And just FYI, I put a tiny sprinkle of chia seeds in every glass.  What are chia seeds you ask?  Well let me help remind you............"Cha, Cha, Chia......it's the chia pet".  Ya, no, seriously I put those exact seeds into my drinks because when you get them wet they turn into a natural gelatin and apparently latch onto toxins in your body and help you expel them faster and once they turn all soft and "jello" like you can't even tell that you are drinking them because they really are itty bitty, almost like grains of sand.

I also started drinking lemon water throughout the day when I'm not drinking juice.  Lemon water helps detoxify the body too (plus it keeps me hydrated too).  If you are squeamish then don't read this next sentence but I have not gone good ole #2 yet either since I started this, I am very afraid for when I do!  Hopefully I won't have to wait too much longer.
