Well we have been having fun with our new "toys' !! My son LOVES the Hurom juicer!!!! I am partial to the blendtec Blender...My first "green smoothie" didn't work out so well..haha..I tried "winging it" and mixed some strawberries,blueberries,raspberries,blackberries,banana and some kale - it was "OK" but to me tasted like grass haha...soooo Kathy and Memaw drank it instead hahaha....My son however did great "winging it" with his juice so I showed him how to make a slushy using the blender and he was thrilled with his homemade icy!!!
I had his concoction which I think was a peach,orange,strawberries and blueberries and I added some romaine lettuce (about 5 leaves) and I loved it !! drank one whole quart this morning for breakfast!!! Guess I will work up to adding kale slowly since I am not used to the taste - I find adding one leaf is fine but that first one I added allot of kale too and was not thrilled with the results haha....
Being the first day today I did very well. I did have a salad today with some grilled chicken (like I said I am NOT vegetarian or vegan) I want to use any cooked things more like "condiments" for now as I ease myself into this....I am NOT denying myself anything just trying to add things and I am sure the rest will go out of my diet on it's own...SO today I must admit I felt more energy, eating lighter also made me feel NO BLOAT !!! like the way I usually feel after eating...I was real glad of that...I did pee allot (not that you wanted to know that but it is something different so want to note that) I assume its cause I drank more water with drinking smoothies and eating more veggies and fruit during the day cause they have so much water compared to what I normally eat..
Well this is a short entry today but wanted to note something for my official day one !!
Till next time......
