Juice

Have you ever done a juice detox before? Just straight juice for 3 days straight? Well I did and it wasn't so bad till the 3rd day. Even though my stomach was shrinking and I wasn't as hungry all the time, I struggled every time I smelled food and heard about delicious juicy burgers being talked about. I was very proud of myself for making it as long as I did. Originally it was Ryan who had the idea that we should do this detox and so we agreed to do it together, wrote down a list of exactly we would need for the next 3 days and headed to the grocery store. After over flowing our grocery kart with veggies and fruits, we got home and organized our kitchen and fridge to store it all. We used every little space in that fridge.

Look at our fridge!

Here are some (not all) pictures I thought I would share of our "meals"and "snacks". We had 3 meals a day and 2 snacks. Total of 5 juices a day, plus lots and lots of water. Water is your best friend :)
Oh and did I mention starting off the morning
with a cup of hot water and lemon?












Bon appetite!

I really did feel good after I was done with my juice fast.
Felt like my body was getting a ton of vitamins and minerals it was missing. 
I have had a lot more energy from juicing and feel much better from doing it. 
Yay juicing :)

    1. Thanks! We are too. It was a lot of work. Lots of time went into prepping for the juices and cleaning it all after it was made. Totally worth it though :)
