Little Snow Monkey

She stole my heart the day I met her and she makes the world seem right when all else is wrong. I love my little Nugget!!! More pictures to come from our sledding adventure with GG and Grandpa

Cleanse Complete!

Well I survived! Made it 3 days on juice (and a little avocado...which they say is OK!). I was never hungry but I love food so I really missed eating. Food that normally doesn't smell good to me, made my mouth water.
Here is my breakdown: Glow was decent. Easy enough to drink and a refreshing way to start the morning. Fuel is definitely carrot-y but I enjoyed it as well. Purify was my least favorite. I am not a fan of beets and that was all I could taste...yuck! Fiji has a very strong ginger taste. I like ginger so I did not mind, but i also had to sip it slow. Green Supreme tastes awesome after the first 4, I could chug that in seconds if I wasn't so full of liquid all ready. And the Vanilla Cloud (or whatever it is called) is a yummy dessert after all the leafy greeny stuff you drink all day.
I do wish they were more like a smoothie or Odwalla juice with pulp, might make me feel like i was eating, but they really are just juice. Make sure to shake before every sip...the juice separates quick! I lost a few lbs, granted you pee 100 times a day so it could just be water weight, but its a good way to kick off a clean eating habit. Today is my first day off and I am having a smoothie for breakfast (jamba's orange carrot karma) and weight watchers veggie soup for lunch (they recommend easing back into regular food to help your body get use to digesting again.) I didn't really do the clean eating before like the tell you to, so maybe I would've had better results and not such a strong desire to eat.

PS I adore you is having a give away. If you wanna give the Suja Juice cleanse a try but don't wanna fork over the cash

Suja Juice

All my friends have been posting pics on their instagram of Suja Juice and claiming it is so good and they feel so great...blah blah blah. So I gave in and am giving it a try.
Suja claims it  "increases energy and stamina, increases mental clarity, better sleep, healthier hair and nails, and often people are in a better mood". Increased energy and better sleep sound great to me!

I am doing the 3 day cleanse and am only on juice 1 of 6 for the day. I have a feeling I'm going to be tired of juice by the end of this.

Les Miserables

I have already seen the movie twice and still have not had enough. I think I became obsessed with the music when I was about 8 years old, even before I saw it in San Francisco. It is always a challenge to not sing outloud when I see it, so if you are with me and any of the music comes on, be warned! Even the oscar performance brought me to tears. AMAZING! If you missed it, havent seen the movie, or love Les Mis as much as I do, here is the clip from the Oscars. If you hate it or barely tolerate it, lets make it easy on each other and not be friends!
