Juicing

Today Robert and I started juicing. We are following Joe's 5 Day Plan. This morning for breakfast we had a juice called Sunrise it consisted of 4 carrots, 2 oranges and 1 beet. It was surprisingly delicious. That one was EASY compared to what I just had to drink for lunch. They call it Green Lemonade.... It has spinach, kale, cucumber, lemon, apple and celery. I was doing alright until I tasted the celery. That stuff was potent. I am not looking forward to my next green juice. I am looking forward to the Pear Pie Delight and the Un-Beet-Able drinks. Those sound amazing. Maybe I'll adjust the recipes a little bit. I'll still have all the ingredients but.... less celery. Why must my body reject healthy foods? Why can't I not like chocolate or something? Speaking of chocolate oh my gosh am I craving everything. Chocolate, caramel, CHIPS, we have some yuca in the fridge that I have to eat or it will go to waste. Maybe instead of my second green for the day I'll have a meal of yuca. That's okay right? It's still a vegetable? No one can be perfect. I can have one meal occasionally, the point is to not go crazy eating everything in sight. That's completely doable especially since I'm drinking so much juice.
So as I'm typing this Robert just came in with some Agave Nectar which is okay to put in the juice. I just took a couple hits of it. Oh my gosh sweet deliciousness.
