Day 8 of 21 (seem to be at weight loss plateau)

>> Monday, February 2, 2009

Weight: 130.5
Lost so far: 5.5lbs

7am: Live juice
I'm a bit disappointed to see my weight has stagnated despite doing workouts, sauna, cleanse, etc. with the exception of using distilled water I should be doing more than what is required – especially given that I am having a pint of live veggie juice per day. I need to get my metabolism going, it’s obviously stuck….

9am: Detox tea
I forgot my juice at home….Donal is bringing it in later. Trying to do some research on parasite kits but not finding much info. Think Donal could use a cleanse… left him some juice this morning so hopefully that will help him a bit. My hands are very dry, indication maybe that I’m not drinking enough water? Other than that I’m ok, feeling a bit sore from the workout yesterday. Will need to do a good workout tonight but Donal has class so will need to juggle that in..

10pm: Nighttime tea
Off to bed with tea. Did a great 30 min workout despite being very sore from yesterdays. Gave myself a massage which felt good, and then a good scrubbing! I weighed in at 130.5 tonight so I’m hoping that I will be less than that tomorrow morning. I could use a good booster….it’s been a few days since I’ve seen the scales drop.

Detox Supplies

Juice of the Day

Carrot, Apple & Ginger

You will need: 1 apple, 3-4 carrots, and a slice of ginger.

Juice the apple and carrots and ginger slice in the juicer. Serve immediately!

Delicious!

This is a juice that I use as a baseline for other juices. To add more "power" try adding the following ingredients:

- Stick of Celery
- Handful of Alfalfa sprouts
- Some kale, spinach, other leafy greens


Soup of the Day - the healthy way!

Butternut Squash & Orange Juice

Split a butternut squash down the middle, and scoop out the seeds and set aside. Wash & dry and place on a baking tray. Place a tablespoon of orange juice in the cavity. Cover with foil and bake in a 375 deg. oven for about 45 mins - 1 hr. Test the flesh with a fork - when its soft, its done! Meanwhile, while the squash is cooking, wash the seeds, removing fibers of flesh, and place on a baking tray to dry. Remove baked squash from the oven and allow to cool. Pour the OJ into a blender, and scoop out all of the flesh into the blender, discarding the skins. Puree the squash, and then pour into a saucepan. Add about 6 cups of distilled or spring water (do not use tap water, as it contains chlorine etc which defeats your healthy mission). Bring to the boil and its ready to eat!

When the seeds have dried, bake them in the oven for 30 mins until roasted. Sprinkle on top of the soup and serve.

Enjoy!
