Day 1

I  woke us this morning excited to get started!  After getting out of bed and getting my son on the right track and feeding the pets I had my breakfast.  As I said before we haven't gotten our juicer yet, but will have it this week...so until then we are drinking Naked Juice.  


This morning I had Green Machine...I was hesitant to drink it because it looks disgusting but I was pleasantly surprised...it tasted great!  Main ingredients are apples, bananas, kiwi, mango and a hint of pineapple.  It also contains chlorella, spirulina, broccoli, spinach, blue green algae and garlic.  I do realize that this again is not optimal for this plan but it is just temporary.


I had a mid morning snack of one banana...which is acceptable.  Lunch was Blue Machine...another 16 oz of juice...this was made with blueberries, blackberries, apples and bananas.  I noticed that as the day went on I got really tired.  I think part of it had to do with the weather since all it has done here today is rain.


I am currently drinking my dinner which is Mighty Mango...mangoes, oranges, apples, a banana and a hint of lemon.  It's not a horrible drink...but it's not my favorite.  After I drink this I get to have some watermelon!


Here is what the plan looks like to start: This program consists of 5 days of eating, blending and juicing only whole fruits and vegetables; followed by 5 days of just juicing; followed by 5 days of eating, blending and juicing whole fruits and vegetables. Think 5-5-5.  My wife and I are doing this together, and it is a wonderful feeling to know that we are there to support each other and encourage each other as we make this commitment to be more healthy.  It makes it easier to know we are doing this together.


I am feeling a tired, have a slight headache and really looking forward to going to bed.  All in all the first day wasn't horrible, I made it through and will be on day 2 when I wake up!  Thanks for stopping by to see how the first day went...again I appreciate all the support and encouragement everyone has shown!
