April 22, 2013

Made a fruit juice yesterday.  2 bananas, 2 apples, blueberries, strawberries and grapes.  It was good, but I think the next time I will use just one banana.  Clean-up is still easy, but I can see how the mesh filter will get difficult to clean.  The holes are so small and food does get stuck.

I'm planning on starting the 60 day juice fast on May 1.  I hope I can do this.  I need to do something...

This is for me :)

Today - April 19, 2013.

I received my Breville Juicer yesterday and today Emily and I made our first juice :)

1 red delicious apple
2 stalks of celery
handful of baby carrots
and a bunch of red seedless grapes

The juicer works great and cleanup was pretty easy.  I liked the juice, but I think next time I will only use on stalk of celery.  Emily tried it and I'm proud of her for trying it.  Don't know if she liked it, but at least she tried.

Haven't weighed myself yet, but I will do that on Wednesday, May 1, 2013.  I think that I will be not be happy with what I see, but at least I'm willing to try and do something about it.  I figure that I can at least try this juicing thing for 60 days and see what happens.  That will get me to the July 1 and hopefully someone will notice a difference by then :)
