Day 53: Back on Track?

Now that I think about it, I never said that my 365 days would be continuous days or consecutive. :)

Yesterday (4-6-11), I juiced two apples, 1/2 a head of romaine lettuce and a carrot. Then, I blended it with a heaping handful of spinach,1/4 tsp. of ginger and a 1/4 cup of soy milk.

It was a refreshing lunch juice that rejuvenated my soul.

Day3: 12-23-10 & Measurements

Today's breakfast consisted of: freshly-squeezed apple blended with alfalfa sprouts, red grapes, blueberries, strawberries and an orange PLUS Eden Soy Original milk. (I took this photo before I decided to decrease the oranges and increase the apples.) The flavor was delightfully good. Even though I could smell the alfalfa sprouts, I could not taste it.

This amount of fruit and juice made about 2 1/2 cups of fruit juice, which is definitely too much for me. I only need about 8oz. of juice in the morning, so I placed the remaining 1/2 of this juice in the refrigerated in a Mason jar. I definitely need to make sure that I am not overloading my system with too much sugar. Diabetes is an issue in my family and I do NOT want it to become an issue with me.

*In addition to the juice, I ate a mini bagel and about 2 TBSP. of cream cheese.

LUNCH consisted of 2 small soft shell tacos (homemade), 1/2 c. ground chuck, lettuce, diced tomatoes, 1/4 c. cheddar cheese and medium salsa.

snack: 2 fig newton cookies

DINNER included three slices of Boar's head turkey on two-slices of wheat bread, mayonnaise and a small salad (romaine lettuce, cucumbers, onions, roma tomatoes and salad dressing (from Olive Garden).

Since I have been off work, I am not nearly as active; therefore, this little amount of food is ok. However, before I resume work, I will need to restart my exercise program AND increase my daily intake of food ....AND WATER!
