Day one was kinda rough! Easier said than done! I had decided the night before to cut out all processed food, but what do you eat? What can you eat besides fruits and vegetables? What is going to taste good? Where do I even start? Can I afford to do this? I remember starting the day with no coffee :( because I did not have anything but artificial sweetener to sweeten my coffee, and black coffee would not cut it for me! For breakfast I had 4 pieces of bacon(not a great option at all) and for lunch we had gone out to eat so I had what I like to call my "final meal"- a Pimento Cheeseburger and Fries! Upon eating this final meal I defiantly realized that was a horrible option, I felt awful! I decided after eating the "final meal" my best option would be to juice until I could research what my next steps were, instead of just eating whatever was available at the moment. In retrospect I think being unprepared and not having healthy options on hand can sometimes can be one of our biggest down falls! We get hungry and we don't have a plan or healthy food available, so we eat anything! I had done a juicing diet about a year ago and I actually felt really great when I was juicing, so I thought I would start there! I went to the store that night and purchased the foods to juice with and my dinner that night was juice! My Son loves to help me juice, he likes to be the one to put the fruit in the machine!
Items for Juicing- Yes that is cake mix in the buggy- it's day 1:) and my Son wanted to have the cool teal blue cake mix for his birthday cake so I gave in! :( - no worries it is no longer in my home!
Rhett choosing what he wants in his juice!
I also made the kids a fruit bowl, so hopefully they would chose that instead of junk food!
