Oh coffee!

I drank a cup of coffee again today. Giving up coffee has been a lot harder than I thought it would be. I thought giving up MacDonalds was hard, but you have to drive there to get it. Coffee is everywhere and everyone serves it. I had a cup at my mother-in-laws today for breakfast. It was delicious. But my stomach hurt shortly after....bad sign. Tea doesn't seem to bother me. I'm trying to switch over, but it has been really hard. It's funny because if you would have asked me which was harder before all this started, I totally would have said MacDonalds. 

Today I consumed: 3 pancakes, a piece of bacon, some macaroni and cheese, some butternut squash ravioli and some popcorn and a doughnut. I drank 3 glasses of water, 1 cup of coffee and 4 cups of tea.

Hot Pink (Sherri)

Sorry guys, it's the name of a smoothie. :) The original recipe is for a juice, but I add 1 to 2 cups of water for a smoothie instead. Feel free to add protein powder, blue-green algae, spinach, etc.

Hot Pink
1 medium beet peeled and chopped
1/2 fresh pineapple chopped with core
1/2 pint fresh strawberries, stems removed (rapsberries are also good)
1/2 inch or more of fresh ginger chopped
1 to 2 cups of water
Place in blender and blend until smooth.
Beets are loaded with folates and B complex vitamins and they also have a sweet taste.

A note is that if a red color is noticed in the toilet the next day, fear not, you and your system are working just fine.  Beets have natural red food dye and that is what's coming through.

Everyone?

     Just wondering where everyone else is for the diet blog? In need of some motivation to keep it going.

A Green Juice Recipe (Sherri)

Okay I just made this green juice recipe from Upaya Naturals blog:
3 large carrots
1 small apple
handful each of kale, parsley, spinach
1 small cucumber
1/2 inch piece of ginger

Weehaw!! not for the weak of tastebuds! Maybe it was supposed to be a handful total of kale, parsley, spinach. Oh well too late now.
