Starting today Chad and I will be juicing for 7 days.  Chad has juiced some in the past and is obsessed with the documentaries Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead and Food Matters.  I am not joking…he watches them a few times a week…really.  We have found ourselves feeling a bit tired and drained lately.  We both need to eat better and lose some weight….so, we are going to juice for 7 days.  I know, your thinking 7 days isn’t gonna fix it…ha!  I know, but it’s a good start and we are hoping to gain a little motivation as we feel better.  We are doing all organic fruits and veggies and that’s it.  I can’t lie, I am pretty nervous and doubting myself a little.  I have a hard time sticking with things like this,  so I decided to blog about it.  So if you come here just to look at the pictures, you can just overlook this post and the ones to follow.  I will keep you updated with what we are juicing and how it is going.  Instead of getting my body ready for this tomorrow I have gone the total opposite route!  Today we ate brisket, beans, cake at Chad’s MawMaw’s birthday party and had Mexican food for dinner Ahem….and Starbucks.  So here goes!

If you have any experience in juicing I would love to hear about it!  Leave me so info below!  That is, unless it is horribly discouraging and not motivating…ha!!
