Day 1...The journey begins!!!

So, today is the day!!!  I'm a weird mix of anxious and excited as I am looking toward the next 2 months!  I went on a 3 store shopping trip and discovered a few things...Watermelon and Pineapple are cheaper at Walmart than at Meijer, but, Meijer is the only super store that will allow me to buy in bulk at a severely reduced price!!!  Kroger has the best quality and pricing on leafy greens, but no one carries golden beets!  I am slowly learning the best way to buy produce, and clerks are more than willing to answer questions concerning ripeness and buying days in advance.  All in all it was a good shopping trip and I had very little temptation at the store, because I only went to the produce section and the checkout.  This is what a week of groceries looks like!




The questions I have gotten concerning dietary intake have led me to do some extra research, and I found charts breaking down what is in the fruits and veggies that I will be juicing.  Calories, carbs, fiber, nutrients, and protein are included!  Check them out.  Hopefully, questions will be answered.


Look, I'm not gonna get on a soap box about juicing!  I'm sure I will have some horrible days along the way, but, this is something that I HAVE to do for ME!!!  I need to be healthier and happier.  I need a change.  I must take control of my life!  And hopefully, along the way, I inspire some people.  Til next time!
