So today will be the first day of the rest of my life! As much as know I'm going to dread this in a week or two, I'm actually kind of excited to start this whole 60 day thing.
For the next seven days I have to take the detox and cleanse pill. Two pills twice a day. This is supposed to help get all that... shit.... out of my body.
This morning I chased my detox pills with a green smoothie. Check out this link to read all about them.
The health benefits of the Green Smoothie
I made mine this morning with two bananas, a cup of Chobani yogurt, teaspoon of vanilla extract, and two handfuls of mixed spinach and swiss chard. I bought a food processor yesterday at ocean state for $20. So after a minute or so in the blender this is what I got................ um, yum?
And you know what, it's not bad at all! The consistency needs some working on, it's a big thick and creamy. I did add about a quarter cup of water to try to smooth it out but I may have to lessen the amount of yogurt I put in. It's ok, I have 60 days to perfect it :)
I went to the gym today and ran on the elliptical for 30 minutes while reading my book Still Alice.... such a good book it made me forget that I was sweating... Even though I was not hungry I polished off the rest of my green smoothie and a couple chunks of pineapple, and a cup of coffee.
I went to the 4pm Body Pump class. I'm going to have to remember to up my weights on chest and biceps. Did I mention how much I HATE lunges..... well they suck.

Dinner was a salad topped with the Perdue shortcuts honey mustard chicken and a chunks of shrimp. I also had three hard boiled egg whites for a snack.
Well until tomorrow.
