Yesterday was a different kind of day. Skyler and I went to a Bridal Expo. First thing I did wrong: No Breakfast. I didn't know we were going until the night before but there wasn't to much I could do to prepare. I am just chalking it up to a life event. There was vendors of all kinds there. The first one at the door was Chucks Liquors, so I had a sample of wine. :) I have to say I was happy about that! I tried samples here and there but I only took a bite of things and some vendors I just simply refused. I did have some cake samples. I am not beating myself up over any of it. I did cook a healthy dinner when I got home.

Today has started off right. Used my juicer for the first time. It was pretty good, even Skyler drank a glass! Shocker, I know! Today is a big football game, my Broncos are facing the much hated (on my part) Patriots but I am prepared. I am eating lunch ahead of the game and I am making Kale Chips and having carrots for my snack if it gets to intense I have some nuts I can crack! ;)

Recipe for Kale Chips: Preheat oven to 300 degrees, Wash and chop Kale, very lightly toss with olive oil, spinkle with sea salt or any other spices of your choice. Bake for 15-17 minutes.
These are amazing! My son thinks they taste like Lay's Potato Chips. Even my hubby ate them!

Recipe for Juice: 1 bunch Kale, 2 carrots, 2 celery, 2 apples, 1 cucumber, 1/2 lemon, 1/2 tsp ginger paste.
Juice and Enjoy.

Since I finally took it out of the box and used it for the first time I am now very excited to try some new juices! More on this later.....

Also, on a happy note, since starting this on January 1st, I have lost 5 lbs. I don't know how many inches but I'm guessing its pretty good seeing as how my clothes are fitting better. My black jeans I wore yesterday didn't want to roll down at my gut! lol More incentive to keep on keeping on!!!
