Orange Juice with Not ONE Orange

After cheating over the weekend I decided to do a juice day. This juice provides all the nutrients I will need in one day. I usually only juice for one meal per day but today I will be supplementing all my meals and snacks with juice or raw fruit. I will also be doing cardio today, whether it be walking outside or going to the gym. Just because you are juicing and not eating solid food does not hold you back from working out. You will have more energy. If this is your first time juicing, do not go HARD at the gym. Try to have a healthy snack before like saltless almonds. My weight was at a limbo last week at 132 lbs. I am determined to get to 127 lbs. by the 29th which I will be attending an evening event. I already bought my dress an XS and although I can squeeze into it now, I want to wear the dress not the dress wear me. You get me?? So here is my miraculous Orange Juice with Not ONE Orange recipe. Remember the portion is for all day.

3 green apples
10 large carrots
1 bag of celery
1/2 of a grapefruit
1 cup of spinach



Throughout the day, expect to use the bathroom more than once. Drink plenty of water. You will feel full and a natural energy. Your skin will feel especially soft and if your pores are clogged expect a pimple or two while the cleanse eliminates ever toxin in your body. I am excited to be at least 129 lbs. by the morning. Juicing does not provide long term weight loss unless you stay active and on a healthy diet. That means do go to wendy's tomorrow and order a chicken wrap and calling it healthy. You will gain back those pounds lost. Continue with a juice/day and eat pure protein like chicken with a little salt.

The Sweet Green Juice

No everyone likes the same flavors. I like the taste of greens but with a hint of sour and sweet. This is the epitome of that.

The Sweet Green Juice

2 lemons

1 green apple 

1 cup of pineapple 

2 cups of parsley 

It's simple and keeps you full. This will be my lunch today. Including lemons in every recipe assures an instant detox for your body. Get rid of those toxins naturally. After my juice I will walk about 2 miles. It is a great energy booster. You can always blend with ice and dilute with water to make a smoothie. If you ever wish for the juice to be more sweet I suggest organic honey. Honey has many benefits. After all, it is the only thing that is made naturally around the world and never goes bad.

The Sour Leaf Juice

1 lemon

2 green apples 

1 cup of basil

2 cups of parsley 

1 cup of pineapple 

This juice is sour and sweet. It is a great afternoon snack. After drinking a cup, I was craving for more. This is one of my favorite recipes. 

The Energizer Bunny Lemonade Juice

    So last night I gave in to a few glasses of Pinot Grigio. I felt tired instantly and woke up very groggy. Alcohol was not worth it. I fought to get out of bed. I usually I have a lot of energy when I wake up. The alcohol drained me. I needed a juice to detox and energize so I made some Energizer Bunny Lemonade Juice.

2 lemons

2 green apples 

1 cup of water, you can add more if the juice is too acidic 

This juice tastes even better blended with ice

I drank it before my daily 2 hour walk.

I had a natural boost of energy, enough to jog 40% of my walk.

This is great for breakfast. If you do decide to have this as a first meal I suggest to dilute with 2 cups of water. The acid on an empty stomach, if you are new to juicing, can cause a burning feeling forcing you to eat a solid carb like bread to overcome the feeling.

Enjoy my Energizer Bunny Lemonade :)

The Skinny Green Monster Juice

I call this juice the Skinny Green Monster. It is great for breakfast, leaves you full and when taken on an empty stomach the nutrients are better absorbed in your body. After drinking this juice for two days in a row for one meal, I noticed a profound increase in energy throughout my day. A long lasting natural energy, not a high and crash energy. It was amazing. I also noticed the skin on my face to be more vibrant and clean.

1/2 a cup of Carrots: Healthy Carb, Appetite Suppressor, Low Fat, Great For Skin
1 Green Apple: Protein, adds Sweetness
1 cup of Spinach: Protein, Powerful Antioxidant
1/2 a cup of Basil: Keeps Immune System Strong
1/2 a cup of Parsley: Low Calorie, High Vitamin A C K
3 Slices of Pineapple: Regulates Metabolism, No Fats or Cholesterol
5 Stalks of Celery: Hydrating, Energy, Aids Bowel Movements, Curbs Cravings
--IF YOU WANT TO ADD MORE FLAVOR, USE ORGANIC HONEY OR FRESH LEMON

Losing The Prego Pounds

Weighing in at 185 lbs, I gained a total of 60 lbs in my pregnancy and I do not advise anyone else to do so. Pushing was very difficult, even breathing. Plus losing the weight was even harder. All I would and still think about is getting my pre baby body back, and its not as impossible as people make it. Some lose the weight from breastfeeding, but like me, we know that is not the case. I'm here to say you can do it without latching on your baby 24/7.

This photo was taken when Victoria had just turned 3 months weighing in at 137 lbs. How did I do it? diet and exercise! low carb protein diet with no processed foods, cardio everyday, and light weight lifting 3-4 times a week. Today I am 135 lbs, still need to lose those last 10 lbs. I wanted to try something different so I decided to start Juicing!!!
