Day 6: Gotta get Organized

       

There's a lot you need to do before making a lifestyle change. In my opinion the most important thing someone needs to do is GET ORGANIZED. I'm serious, everything else comes second. Ask anybody who isn't as healthy as they want to be and chances are its due to them not following a detailed plan and sticking to it. I guaranteed that you're gonna hit a wall if you don't sit down and write everything out.

     Juicing requires a lot of work. Because the juices you make are only good for about 24 hours you can't store huge batches in your fridge. Also, I don't like storing my veggies in the fridge for a long time because they dry out. This means frequent trips to the market if you want your juices to taste as fresh as possible.

But to quote a famous old wise lady from the internet, "Ain't nobody got TIME for DAT!"  so you need to figure this stuff out and work your schedule around your juice to the point where this all becomes routine. It has to become routine because if you don't follow a routine you're going to go back to old habits like I have done today. So here's what my schedule now looks like.


Sunday- Veggie Shopping / Juicing
Monday- Drink remaining Juice
Tuesday- Veggie Shopping/Juice
Weds- Drink remaining juice
Thursday-Veggie Shopping/Juicing
Friday-Drink remaining Juice
Sat- Give juicing a rest.

                Repetitive right? it has to be. I know for myself I'll be going to the market 3 times a week. I'll be putting up a blog very soon on the pricing of my shopping list based on the recipes I've chosen but I'll just say now, It's been cheaper to juice than having breakfast and lunch in the city. Once you're in a routine you'll be in and out of the markets in minutes.

So wise

      Finally I have included my meal replacement recipe in video format. This recipe is Diabetic friendly but I've given it to my wife and my son and they enjoy it. My son in particular thinks its a strawberry milkshake, ha ha it's fun to trick kids.
