End of the month Update

Hello Peeps:

I am hoping that everyone is doing well out there in the world of healthy-ness. Is that a word? well, I am not sure but it sound so great in my head. I wanted to let you all know that we are in the process of moving. Therefore, my family and I are living between two homes and I've been so exhausted with the move. It has been very difficult to maintain my healthy lifestyle this week. I have NOT gone to the gym, I have NOT had any juice and I have NOT maintained my normal water intake. We will be all moved by Saturday and I am looking forward to starting the next chapter of my life.
I want to thank my friend that continue to encourage me to maintain my healthy lifestyle. I also want to thank all of my friends from my facebook groups that share such awesome information about working out and eating healthy. Overall, I am doing very well..I weighed in tonight and I am at 196..I am very please, but I would love to come down further. Hopefully after our move I can get back on track without any interuptions.

Have a great night~

Healthy Snacks

This healthy snack was suggested to serve to family and friends as a NEW way of socializing. This is creative and has all sorts of nutrition in them. I am sure there is a portion of sugar inside of them as well, but this beats the horrible sweets that I was eating prior to my juice fast. Will you join me in educating others with healthy snack ideas??

After the fast

Hello Peeps:

Let's my discuss my mental, emotional and physical state these days. Well, mentally my mind is consumed with gaining weight and my desire to continue to loose.  I have particular responsibilities in the house therefore it is sometimes difficult to modify my food verses others in the home. Last week I had a large amount of salad, this week I have found that I am out of a lot therefore I am supplementing with small healthy snacks.
Emotionally, I have noticed that I have become more calm and easy going. It seems as though I really enjoyed the peace during my juice fast and now I am doing things (self-talk) to keep that peace.
Physically, my body doe NOT like bad foods, therefore it rejects it the best ways possible. Yes, I have had a snack because I felt like I HAD to have something sweet Well, my body was like "look lady I don't want that". Therefore, I won't be heading down that road again anytime soon!
Overall, things are going well, I am finding that I do NOT need as much sleep as I once thought, I still have energy and I am more clear in terms of planning in my head! I totally like the new PASSION!!!

Thanks for stopping by~

Day 5

Hi Peeps:

How are you this lovely Saturday evening..I have had a fantastic day, let me tell you my energy is still so very high and I absolutely LOVE that. I have been eating things such as salad, tuna and drinking juice/smoothies. Of course I feel a little bored sometimes because I don't have a variety of foods that I am eating, but my goal is to stay safe for now until my healthy eating becomes a habit.
I had a bite of my husbands rib tonight and I felt like I was going to PUKE on sight. YUCK...so not for me, it seemed a bit greasy and it made my stomach very upset. Therefore, I know that type of eating is NOT good for me,.

Day 1

Today is the first day that I allowed myself to eat food. I started the morning with a smoothie..um um good. Then I had a banana, some juice and I ended the night with a salad. I am sure that I probably should not have had a boiled egg on my salad BUT...I was craving..ummmm it was amazing. Here is a pic of my dinner.

Tomatoes
Bell Peppers
Celery
Lettuce
boiled egg

*It was amazing...

Day 30

Yesterday was a bitter sweet day as I reached my goal and looking towards bigger and better things. When I think back I am so glad that I chose to make this decision. My body feels like and I have more energy than ever before.
I feel as though I am more spiritually sound and that I am walking with God in a closer manner. Today I credit my strength and will to the man upstairs. On the days that I did not pray, I had aches and pains..on the days that I woke up and meditated I felt remarkable. It is important to have some quiet time, perhaps yoga or something that will allow individuals to become centered.
My end weight was 193 and I am sure that I have gained muscle due to my hard work in the weight room. I would usually provide pictures from my phone. Unfortunately, my phone died therefore I am unable to show a picture of my scale right now. Therefore, I will be trying to get my measurements to you all in a few days. I am sooooo happy with things right now. Juicing is forever!

Day 29

Feeling good and I think that I am looking hot. I enjoy the positive response that I continue to get from friends. I did not think that through juice I have gotten my "old" vibrant self back. I am looking forward to continuous growth in the world of healthy living.

I have noticed that at this stage I am no longer SUPER alert and becoming hostile with everyone. However, I still feel all of my feelings very closely as I want to drop a tear on every conversation that I have. Taking a break allows my body to heel and I like that~
