So today was a bit of a struggle. It seems that I am fine in the morning and afternoon, but by the time evening hits and it is dinner time, cravings start to get to me. I know it isn't true hunger....just mental cravings. There is something about juice that just doesn't satisfy completely....I know it SHOULD...but I think my mind is just still hooked on the feel-goods of greasy, crunchy, salty, etc. foods. Dinner time right now is my biggest battle. I am thinking of switching to a different dinner juice to help with this. I absolutely LOVE my morning and mean green juices....but dinner is kinda so-so. It is very yummy, but I think it is just easy to get sick of :) lol. Maybe I need an alternate and then I can switch back and forth. The taste of beets is really growing on me, to the point where I am actually looking forward to my "breakfast" from the moment I wake up. It is very satisfying....so maybe I will make a beet drink for dinner?? Beets are super good for you as a blood purifier and a blood builder. They help you to eliminate a lot of toxins by stimulating a chemical in your blood that toxins attach too, and then letting you release them when you use the bathroom :) I have had a few stomach cramps today too.....not sure what it is from....maybe more detox?? Maybe just my digestive tract adjusting??
I went grocery shopping today for 2 days worth of juice supplies for both me and Cj. I was surprised to find out that it was only about $24....so, roughly $6/day for each of us!! Juicing is a lot more affordable than the documentary "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead" portrayed. I did my shopping at Walmart though, so maybe that is why.
I am very happy to report that a couple of good friends of mine (not affiliated with my church) are jumping on the juice-wagon :) I pray that they achieve their goals and feel healthier than ever!!
