Just discovered this through a little experimentation. Quite satisfying for the sweet tooth, great fiber, huge amounts of vitamin A

Pumpkin Pie without the fat and carbs!
Scary. . .
. . . how good I feel. It’s been two days and I keep expecting the headache I’ve been warned about, or the rumbley tummy or the craving of that which I’m not “suppose” to have. Not happening!
Woke at my normal 5:00 am, made coffee for my husband and then made my morning juice and sipped on that while I made a mid-morning and early afternoon juice both of which went to work with me. Yes got a few funny looks while I sipped the electric green and later fluorescent orange juice but not a comment was made. . . but to be fair I’m the consummate smart ass and they all know this sooooooo yah. LOL So far so good! 😉
Carrot Pineapple “salad”
This used to be my most favorite salad as a kid; however the original involved mayo. . . . *shudders. As with all my recipes, make the assumption all ingredients are organic.
Here’s my juice version:
4 carrots washed
1 C pineapple
1″ ginger
3 hands-full of spinach
Juice all in whatever order. Pour over ice and enjoy! Yummy!
First Full Day. . .
. . . on the mostly juice reboot. I’m shocked! I’m not hungry and wasn’t all day. Drank all the juice suggested with a few modifications (one recipe to follow) and had an apple for a snack tonight. I’m stuffed! I “want” a piece of chocolate but not out of need; it’s a want a habit and I’m not distressed by not having it. WOW! Feel really good, really relaxed and am ready for bed. I’m impressed!
Maybe I should be taking pics of my juice. . . . LOL we’ll see 😉
Ginger Carrot Pop
2″ piece of Ginger
2 Granny Smith Apples
1/2 bunch purple kale
8 Carrots, medium sized
Juice all of the above and enjoy! Quite tasty with a zip of ginger and round fullness of the carrots without it tasting like it came out of a health food store!
