69 days and I started drinking....

......JUICE!!!!!!

A friend of mine loaned me his juicer and yesterday for the first time I jumped on board the juicing train.

For over a month now I've been starting my day with fresh smoothies made with raw fruits and vegetables and that has had a noticeable impact on my skin, energy, sense of well-being, weight and - I think - has helped me stay sober through a focus on the health of this temple that is my body. Keeping me focused on thoughts of recovery not only in the mental sense but in the physical sense; working to heal and re-build my body to live a long and happy SOBER life after years of slinging damage at it with booze.

So now I've added juicing - loading a power-packed, concentrated punch of nutrients, anti-oxidants and energy-laden goodness into a glass and gulping it down is AMAZING.

It's only day two but already I can tell this is an excellent addition to my recovery plan and also a wonderful way to treat my body. Imagine getting the goodness of a head of kale, a bundle of cilantro and celery, a few carrots, an orange, some ginger root and a kiwi all in one glass of tasty, refreshing goodness.....

Counteract disease and toxins with a chlorophyll-laced mega-shooter of natural wonderjuice every day!!!



Happy Friday everybody.

Great header FO, I was just about to leap in and encourage you back on the wagon. I got a juicer for Christmas but I'm a bit put off by all the fibre that's left behind. Google 'uses for fruit pulp'.

I'm going to bet you've been a practical joker all your life FreeOwl! Can't think of a better way to start a Friday, a good chuckle and thinking "you got me!"

Juicing is awesome! It's such a good way to get more fruits and veggies in your diet and it makes your skin look amazing. Good for you!

You scared me for a minute with your title... So glad you're drinking juice instead of poison.
