The next step...

So, the next step in this juicing journey, as I'll call it, is our week or so of prep to get our bodies more used to what we'll be eating (or not eating, depending on how you look at it). We meet again with our nutritionist on Monday, when she'll give us lots more details about the plan itself. From what I've read -- and I could be wrong -- you can mix up veggies/fruits as you will, but there are various recipes provided on the program's website. I e-mailed our nutritionist last night, worried about whether I'm going to be able to choke down this stuff, since I loathe veggies. Yes, not only do I hate them, the level of hate is pretty significant. We had some organic tomato soup, though, last night at dinner, and I liked it. It wasn't the best thing I've ever eaten, mind you, but it was edible and I actually almost enjoyed it. Anyway, the nutritionist (Marie) wrote back to me and gave lots of encouragement and inspirational words of wisdom. She informed me that the fruit actually takes a big edge off of the veggie taste, so much that it's barely there. I've come to a decision, though. I want to lose this weight so badly, and I obviously can't control my food intake. I confessed to hubby the other day about cheating...I know, I know. I think this program is it...it's juice or nothing. There will be no sneaking food, b/c Pal's shouldn't be showing up on our bank statement anymore, even for a tea. So, if there is a charge on there, I'm busted...and that's a good thing. So, the juicer should arrive next week, and we begin juicing next Saturday, August 13th. Here we go! :)
