Today, I'm going to add juices to my food program. I'm thinking of doing 100% juice yet, I'm also thinking I'll be doing smoozie (green smoothies) as well. Not totally sure yet. What I am sure of is, I'm going to up my food program. I've been slacking a bit and, don't like it. I don't like the way I feel; I don't like the way my skin is. I've got plenty of time to make juices and smoothies; I know to eat better, etc.

There it is! That simple! Going shopping after class and picking up veggies and fruits I want to add to my daily food program. The monkey mind doesn't want me to do this ~ at all! It's in total fear of my not eating "real" i.e. cooked food. Not like I've not done it before! It's also got issues about Thanksgiving coming up. In fact, we don't really do anything special for Thanksgiving. To me, every day is a great day to give thanks. Why make one man-made day special?

So, here I go! Juices and smoozies for, let's begin with 5 days. HAH! The monkey said... how about 3? O.k, well, 3 then. AND, it now wants to add salads... with rice. So, I may add salads.... no oil dressing.

What I think I'm doing is, tricking the monkey mind. Giving it concessions ~ letting it think its winning. Then again, maybe it's tricking me. We'll see, wont we?

On the books below, left one "should" be paperback; the right one, is Kindle version.

So far today I've eaten the popcorn (not microwaved) I made last evening and made a really good smoozie, some of which I shared with my honey.

I've realized this will not be a juice/smoozie feast. It's going to be a cleansing protocol. What that means is, I will be eating fresh, raw fruit, most likely some veggies (with no oil dressing) yet, mostly juices, smoozies and water.

Sunday I plan on going to a huge farmers' market in Hollywood and picking up some organic produce for my smoozies. On Wednesday, I'll go to the little shop up the street and pick up more produce... mostly greens. They've got fairly decent prices for being such a small business.

Oh! What my husband doesn't know is, he's just joined my cleansing program here. If I make it, he will eat it. So, there we are!!!

I played with my ladies this morning. A good full hour of walking, lunges, throwing 6, 12 and a 25 pound Sand Bell; used sticks to get some shoulder freedom and finished off with kb's. The women are doing things they NEVER thought possible a few short months ago.

What's good for me today is, so far, over 4,000 steps and about 4 bm's. I LOVE when it's easy to poop!

What are you doing??? What's going on? Joining me here?

Okay Revvell. This comment will be short, I commented on other blogs here and don't see them. Will try again.

This blog of yours come at a time when I decided to get raw food delivered to me via Chef Renee (RFT). Then we found out they don't ship to NJ. So I ordered the box from Matt at 'Rawvolution'. It will be here tomorrow. I need to cleanse a little also. That 'monkey mind' you talked about...ugghh!!! Thanksgiving coming, blah, blah, blah!! I can do this if I want to. I want to. I will be doing this with you. BTW...obviously not a juice feast for me, just eating all raw all day for as many days as I wish to. Let's see what happens. If nothing else, easy bm's are always welcome!

Welcome Bonnie. Well, I'm not doing a juice/smoothie feast right now either. I'm eating but, more drinking. Besides the popcorn this morning, a smoozie and water, I've also had grapes and a couple of dates.

I'm out on patrol this evening so, going to bring carrots and celery. Yes, I could juice them yet... I'm thinking my partner will just LOVE the sound of me crunching just like I thoroughly loved him cracking sunflower seed shells when I was driving. (One reason he always drives now... to get him to stop that!) Heh!

Yes!!! More BMs!!!! Just had a GREAT one!!!

Catchya in the ayem!

Let me know how you like Matt's food. In my experience, you have to look at it all and see what will go bad first. Some of his food wont last 5 (or however many days it's now supposed to be for) days. I liked it though.
