Greener Days Ahead

The kale looked amazing tonight at my organic shop so I doubled up.
With a way too early start tomorrow, I juiced up tonight in prep. I will be using some add-ins mentioned last time.
The base juice: kale, rainbow chard, garlic, scallions, amazing pink grapefruit, tomato, parsley, and ginger.

Juice for Days

I have been beyond lazy when it comes to juicing lately. Today I had a lot of produce sitting in my fridge that needed some attention. Some of it was already bad and the rest was getting close. So, I sorted and cleaned. Everything that was still good was thrown in the juicer. I figure that I have dinner and all day tomorrow for juice meals-an impromptu mini fast.
The mix: chard, kale, celery, lemon, apple, pear, pomegranate, ginger, and broccoli.

Back in the Saddle

All prepped and ready for a week of juicing!
This week I will be combining kale, chard, collard greens, celery, ginger, carrots, pear, apple, jalapeƱo, and parsley. I have some radish I may throw in should the spirit move me. The lemons at the market were disappointing so none made it home with me.

Day 10 of Juice Fast

I have finished my last juice of this 10 day journey. I will start to add foods back into my diet tomorrow and am looking forward to it. I drove past a chicken place on my way home and almost crashed the car because it smelled soooo good.
Today's juice: kale, chard, blueberries, broccoli, cauliflower, squash, ginger, apples, parsley, celery, and carrots.

In the Zone

Today I start day 7 of the fast. I did have another smoothie last night and added some cinnamon. Back to the green this morning. The picture is an overflow of everything besides the greens.
The mix: 1/2 squash, 1/4 cucumber, lemon, turmeric, ginger, strawberry, blueberry, green and red apples, broccoli, cauliflower, tomato, parsley, kale, chard, peach, and celery.
Good mix, but I think next weeks shopping will be more simple.

Day Three of Juice Fast

At the end of day three I feel...
Hungry! I managed to get some produce on the way home and made a monster juice that should last through tomorrow. I am taking it one juice at a time and hope I can make day 4. I do feel less bloated and my energy is about average for a Friday. There more noises from my gut than usual.
My monster juice: kale, chard, parsley, celery, lemon, ginger, turmeric, pear, yellow carrots, pineapple, tomato, broccoli, and cauliflower. It tastes good, a little peppery. I may add the fruit flavored protein mix tomorrow morning.
