Well, it's been almost 2 weeks now since I bought and started using my Nutribullet. I started out the first week with the Toxic Cleanse recipe which came with my Bullet. I then continued that with a colon cleanse recipe that I found on the internet which consisted of carrots, celery, pineapple, apple, spinach and kale. Pretty good! I did that for a couple of days and since then I've just been mixing up whatever I have on hand. Usually the "blast" consists of banana, some type of berry, lettuce or spinach, and whatever else I happen to have. I use POM juice and water as my liquid and blast away.
I have also been walking 5 miles, 3-4 days a week and moving around more on the days I don't walk. This means parking farther away from store entrances, getting out in the yard and doing some type of yard work, etc.
So what has changed since I started doing my juices? Well, first off, I notice that because I buy more fresh fruit and veggies, I am more aware of what goes in my mouth. When I feel hungry, I think about what I want to eat instead of just grabbing something out of the cabinet. Second, I seem to have more energy. Not a lot more but just enough to keep me going through the day without having to sleep 2 hours in the middle of my day. I have also lost 4 pounds. That's the part I really like.
I am going to keep on trying new recipes and will keep up the exercise and try to increase it to maybe 4-5 days a week. Eventually I would like to work up to a 7 day a week routine. I am hoping that I can incorporate exercise into my daily life so that I want it instead of dread it. This means that I am healthier not only for myself but for my family!
Keep on Juicing!!
