Getting Back On Track

Hey all, sorry it's been so long since my last post. I got a little sidetracked, so I'm here today to get back on track with this blog, as well as juicing in general.

When I started this blog I was juicing almost every day, sometimes even more than once a day. I was looking and feeling better, and I knew that the juice was playing a large part. Then, a few weeks ago I went to NYC over the weekend. Not only did I not consume any fresh juice while I was there, but I was stuffing my face with unhealthy foods like pizza, hot dogs, a pastrami sandwich the size of my head, you name it (see, I told you I wasn't a health freak.) When I returned from the brief getaway I vowed to pick up my juicing right where I left off. One day went by, then a few more, and before I knew it I hadn't made or consumed any fresh juice in two weeks! Something like this was bound to happen at one point or another, and that's actually one of the main reasons I wanted to make this blog about juicing. I knew that this blog would give me a little extra incentive to continue juicing and keep me accountable. Kinda reminds me of that saying, "practice what you preach." Nobody wants to read a blog about juicing if it's written by someone who doesn't juice. That wouldn't make any sense.

Last night I decided that enough was enough and that it was time to make some juice. I bought some produce, then immediately returned home and made some juice. Normally I like to consume the juice right away, (an explanation of why might be a topic of a future post) but this time I decided to put it in a mason jar and keep it in the fridge over night so that when I woke today I'd have my juice ready to go, and I wouldn't be able to make any excuses. I'm happy to announce that I'm drinking my juice while writing this post, and it's just as good as I remember. This particular juice makes me feel more awake and alert than a couple of cups of coffee in the morning, it also keeps me filling full for a few hours. I plan on having a juice tomorrow, the next day, and so on. I also plan on updating this blog more frequently.

One last thing, I know that this is an unfamiliar subject for many of you, just as it was for me, and that there will probably be some questions. I've probably asked these same questions myself. Feel free to ask any you might have and I'll do my best to answer.
