I'm doing it

I'm doing it......................
A juice cleanse/ detox that is.

I broke down when I woke up this morning feeling like 10 pounds of sludge in a 5 pound bag. I need a change and I'm really bad at eating healthy. So I did a TON of research. I read reviews, I read studies I spent three hours just going over the best for me.

I bought a reasonable juicer less than $31.00 and a book as a guide for $8.00.

My plan is to do a 7 day cleanse starting on Friday or Saturday I have not decided yet. They say the best way is to ease into it by taking the first 2 days and just backing out your meals one at a time. Then to ease out of it by adding in soups and low carb foods.

We will see I just needed to do something. I eat in moderation and I have not gained any weight since I did the shred for 15 day (fail on my part). But I'm stuck and I feel like I need to do something drastic but healthy.

I used my own saved up money to buy my juicer and book and plan to use my money for the foods that are outside of our normal grocery shopping. If this works I will find a way to work it into our monthly budget and maybe get the hubby on board.

I want to feel good. I'm tired of feeling uncomfortable in my own skin. And I'm tired of having the oh just forget this whole weight loss thing and let me eat my own weight in chocolate or pizza.

I know this will be a challenge but I'm ready. Ready to take control of my eating habits, my weight, my energy, and my self esteem.

I will update the good, bad, and the ugly.

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord...

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a ...
