Day 11 - Oranges are better in juice

Well everyone, yesterdays juice was a little messed up, as is today's. Fortunately, today's juice is not as bad as yesterdays was. I added some orange to my smoothie yesterday and today, and it left little rock like objects in my smoothie :-( I thought I had gotten all of the seeds out today, but I was wrong.  I guess oranges are meant to juice and not to smooth.

Day 10

Hey everyone, this is going smooth. I am starting to really look forward to giving you guys some recipes here in another 20 days. Just a note, I take breaks from this diet on holidays and special occasions. The 8th of this month is my daughters birthday, which is next Thursday. I will be taking that day off as well. Here's another day of healthy living! Cheers!

Day 9

I was looking forward to smooth today. Until I made up a strange concoction that I now have to suffer through :-( Tomorrow will be much better!

Day 7&8

Well folks, on Friday I totally forgot to blog. However, the smoothie thing is going great! I am looking forward to having these breakfasts. Much more so, than I was about juicing. I think one of the reasons why is because of the whole pain/pleasure principle. I am seeing this smoothie transition as pleasurable, since the food is so healthy, and so yummy. I am still juicing before dinner every night too (except for Saturdays), which is still a little difficult to motivate myself through. The one thing that creates resistance, is all the cleanup and prep work that is involved in making these dietary changes. However, I have see four of my abs, which is a great motivator to continue working on the 6 pack for summer ;-)

Day 6 Smooth Sailing

This morning I had extra time to do everything that needs to be done. I even slept in for 2 hours! It is interesting how fatigue affects a persons motivation. I have been eating more lately too, because of a minor back injury that occurred from standing on my head to show off to someone. I guess what I am learning through yoga should not be abused by my ego ;/

Day 5 Self Sabotage

Well, I almost messed up today. I forgot to go shopping last night, and ended up with no almond milk for my smoothie this morning :-(  Furthermore, I only have one banana left! Fortunately, I found a can of condensed milk in the cupboard to save the day! That was a close call, and a strong reminder than not having a plan is planning to fail. I will have to take appropriate measures in the future to make sure I am fully stalked up on my yummy almond milk.

Day 4

This morning was another tough one. Last night I didn't juice before dinner, and I ended up struggling with heart burn all night. I stuck to it even though I was craving bacon and eggs like you wouldn't believe. Its a good thing I have dedicated myself to this blog, or I may not have gone through with it today. Anyhoo, I have made it through another day ;-)

Day 3

This morning was tough for two reasons. One reason is because it was my birthday on Friday, so I took two days off instead of only one. This morning, I just wanted another greasy breakfast, but determination WON! I also almost forgot to do my blog :-o  However, after all the obstacles have been set aside, here I am. Still succeeding ;-)

Day 2 Smooth

Hey everyone! Today is the second day of the smoothie for breakfast program. I am doing well with it, but I was weighed at the Dr yesterday, and found out I haven't lost ANY weight :-( That will not stop my quest. I will push on to provide entertainment for you, my dear readers.

Day 1

Hey everyone. Today is day one of the smoothie for breakfast diet. I am totally starving for breakfast today, and pancakes sound good. However, the smoothie is hitting the spot! Its almost like having ice cream for breakfast. Is this dieting, because it tastes like cheating ;-)

Final Juice!

Hey everyone! With this being the last juice, I am ridding the Italian Stallion with a fancy saddle. This is one of my favorite concoctions, but I haven't quite figured out a perfect recipie. Any suggestions?
