Day 3 of Reboot (Quick Start)

Day 3 of Quick Start Reboot (Day 8 of juice and food) started with pear/fennel juice. I think.. lol...

I ran some errands so I got some exercise... My errands included a trip to the produce market for more kale and other stuff, then I came home and made Mean Green juice, drank it... I had a simple meal of sliced avocado with a sliced plum tomato, sprinkled balsamic vinegar on both, also put garlic herb grinder thing on it. The dish was delicious!! The food was good too.. haha

I went to the grocery store for some peanut butter. I searched the shelves, read all the labels, comparing all the info.... It was brutal.. then I went over by the deli and the grocery store makes their own peanut butter.. ingredients? Peanuts... Period... I was happy to find that because I don't want to eat sugar or other stuff, like hydrogenated oils... I sliced a banana and put a small amount of peanut butter on it.

I need to amp up the juices, because I am not eating that much food. I don't want to hurt myself, but I do want to lose weight. If I don't get enough to eat or drink, my body will think it is "starving" and hold onto the weight.

I still love my juicer, but one thing bothers me. Why didn't they make the cutter basket out of stainless steel, rather than plastic. If any of you Breville peeps are reading my blog, please make note of that. I see that the $149 Breville has a metal basket thing. The plastic is okay right now, but I am not sure of the life-span, that it may become scratched and hold bacteria, perhaps causing some problems.. It would be so cool if this part was interchangeable with the other model, that maybe I could upgrade at some time in the future. I will check this out.. :-) If you Breville people need some help, just let me know..

I felt good today... so that is a good thing... More of the same, or better.. tomorrow..

Juice It!!!!

P.S. the photo was taken in New Hampshire two weeks ago by my cousin, Joanna. She is amazing!!
