Day 2 - much better

I think this day will be much better. With all the free time of a Saturday I have time to properly cut, wash and prepare the produce before juicing. Mychelle wanted some too so she helped out. For breakfast we used a recipe from rebootwithjoe.com called "Morning Sunrise". It called for 4-5 large carrots, 2 oranges, and 2 beets. It was very messy with the beet juice getting everywhere and staining things, but it was worth it. That was the tastiest drink. It was only around 344 calories so I will need to drink a lot more to make it close to my calorie limit. I feel good though and am enjoying myself this morning. For lunch I had a Mean Green (a drink that was made on Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead). It has cucumbers, lemon, kale, apples, ginger, and celery. Mychelle called up my sister and her family, as well my parents and we all had a juicing/blending/BBQ party. My parents brought their new Vitamix, and we tested out our new juicer. I also had a rack of ribs to BBQ up and so we had smoothies, juice, and ribs. I did a great job not even licking my fingers while cooking the ribs. I made sure to only stick to the veggie and fruit juice. I think it is always a good idea to surround yourself with the foods you are not going to eat so that you get used to being around it without giving in. I am feeling great, and am not craving much fatty or sugary food. I had another mean green for dinner since my brother-in-law wanted to try it. It wasn't bad to have it twice in one day. Day two goes down much better then day one. Two days down, five more to go.
