So, today was pretty boring, just more veggie soup

Published by cgardener at 6:13 pm under Dieting, Exercise Edit This

Sundays are my self-designated day off. I didn’t do much, played online, ate soup, gave away some plants, ate soup, read, ate soup. I must admit, it tasted better today than yesterday. Why is it soup just gets better and better? Except for after day three, then it just gets boring.

I love vegetable soup, but two days of it is enough now. I’m ready for some juicing. Tomorrow, I’m going to the produce store and get lots of veggies to juice. I’ll be drinking juice all day, and having a salad at night. I want to get 10 more lbs. off by Christmas.

I’ll also be starting a really serious exercise program, walking 2-3 miles a day plus working out with stretch bands and weights. My walk to the store will be my first workout, because it’s a little over a mile one way, so over 2 round trip.

I know I’ll never look like I did 20 years ago, or even 11 years ago when I moved here, but I want to look better than this.

    you know a while back some friends told me about a great way to lose weight. In fact my friend Philip lost 180 lbs.
    Try this one banana, unsweetened chocolate, and handful of washed spinach. Put these ingredients in a blender.
    You can alos put avocados instead of spinach or other leafy green vegetables.

    One thing I did was to cut up the bananas and put in plastic sandwich bags. that way, the smoothie is nice and cold.

    Well, I’m doing the juice fast for awhile, so I guess making one of those a day wouldn’t hurt. Thanks.
