So I am well into the whole juicing adventure, I finished my 5-day juicing challenge which is what I initially signed up for. But wanted to take it further as I mentioned in my last post. I am as the title suggests on Day 18 and let me tell you, at this point in my adventure, it is not at all easy. I crave food, but really who wouldn’t? I cook for William (my honey), I had a little taste of some mashed potatoes, and a string, literally a string of chicken. I won’t say that is cheating, but I think I needed it, not trying to make excuses. This is really hard, especially since I am trying to finish my 60 days without quitting, as I am not a quitter.
As of today, well not today, last time I weighed myself I was at 223.6 I believe, which if you follow me is a huge difference, but I am still a ways away from the ideal goal weight I would like to be at, with that comes sacrifice, which is what I am going through now. And yes don’t let anyone tell you, it is not a walk in the park, because it isn’t. The more occupied you stay, the easier the days get, but when you are not as busy, and you sit and watch TV or you are at the Mall haha. Damn you will get plenty of reminders of what you are missing. So I do not do those as much unless I have to lol.
I will weigh in Saturday and hopefully return some time that day to do a post, I would like to keep an update on how that is going. My walking has stopped for now. I sometimes do not feel I have the energy to do it, and that is my own fault, as I don’t drink the 5 juices and water I am supposed to have daily. My bad, I know. But once my 60 days are up, I will resume walking, I may go ahead and resume next week, in addition to the juicing, but maybe 30 mins per day rather than the hour, I just need to drink the juices I am supposed to, to keep that energy level up where it belongs.
As for the actual juicing, oh my gosh, that is so time-consuming, picking out what you want, and if you don’t have one thing, finding a substitute. I seriously sometimes spend 1 or 2 hours just doing that, sometimes a little more. That does not include washing the juicer parts after. I have to do that each time, so when I do juice, I try to make the juices in the early evening, so that I make my dinner and evening, and breakfast and lunch juices. At least that is what is working out for me. I think that is all I wanted to talk about today. I will leave photos of the juices I made or the ingredients just to give you an idea. If interested you should go and sign up for a free 3 or 10-day plan! Go to rebootwithjoe.com.
These are only a few photos during my juicing. Was no point in showing you all of them. Btw this is posted late, but backdating lol. I don’t know how I forgot about this, but I did.
God Bless
