Organic Carrot, Orange and Ginger Juice

So that last 2 days I have been making the most delicious fresh juice I have ever had. You would never believe that there is no added sugar. I was feeling really sluggish this past week, due to hormones, and all that fun women stuff. I wanted to start the day off with something a little different. My body doesn't always do well on caffeine, especially when I feel it needs it the most. I crash hard and I am left feeling worse. Here is the Carrot and Ginger Juice Recipe 6-7 Organic Carrots 2 Oranges (right from my back yard) 1 inch of Ginger ( I love ginger so I put in a little more) I peeled the oranges so the white part was still on. I also peeled the ginger as well. I also tried it without the oranges if you are worried about sugar content. It still tasted awesome!! And Voila! A beautiful looking juice that taste extraordinary. You can tell I'm excited. I don't get excited by too many things, but I felt great after drinking this first thing in the morni

The past 2 months

I know I haven't been blogging lately. Time just has not been on my side. With my projects I have underway, training clients, spending precious moments with my growing daughter, and keeping my husband out of the hospital I would say I have my hands full. So sitting down here at the computer is a luxury. I will try and recap as much as possible in the most condensed way. February started out very rocky. Ben had to be rushed to the hospital for his attack on his stomach. This was one of the worst episodes. He had to be wheeled in because he couldn't walk and was almost passing out from pain. The ER was very slow about everything as always and told him they would see him as soon as they could. 2 and half hours later, you would think he was almost dead, they finally got him the medication to give him relief. Then they sent him home several hours later because there is nothing more they can do. I also had to take care of Lyla in the ER while watching this nightmare happen. I th

Saturday's Practice and Food

Here is yesterdays workout which I think of more of a practice. Warmed up with Joint Mobility 5 minutes and 2 minutes of Swings 12kg Did the following exercises 3 times. Pull Ups 3 , 4 , 3 Pistols 2 , 3, 1 per side Bent Press 12kg 3, 3 , 3 per side C & J 12kg 8, 8 , 6 per side Then I finished off with Snatches for 3 minutes with the 12kg total of 73 snatches. I don't usually train high reps so I was surprised how nice those 3 minutes felt. I paced myself at around 24 snatches a minute. I'm not training for any thing but I wanted to see how I would feel with that length of time. Maybe I'll try 4 minutes today. Morning weight is 108. Been eating 5-6 times a day. Here is what I ate yesterday. Not typical since it's a Saturday and I had time to have some lunch by the beach. Couple of people ask me from time to time if I am eating. I think I eat a good amount of food. I ha
