Juicing is Cool

For those who are familiar with me, you may notice I usually have an unlimited amount of energy on most occassions. This is because I have regularly used the juicer for the last 14-15 years. At 43 I consider myself very healthy, active and positive. This is my year to clean up somewhat because I have been a heavy smoker since I was 27 and my diet at the best has been inconsistant in regards to eating healthy foods. My usual food of choice is McDonalds, Burger King or Pizza Slices. Only when I have a woman cook for me or go around my family I get to eat a balanced meal. I have never been a heavy drinker, although in the last 5 years my intake of cheap beer has increased 10 times, mostly when I am around other drinkers. If it were not for my Champion Juicer I am convinced that I would be 10 times more raunchy than I feel right now.

I usually juice from 2-4 times a week consistantly. If anyone who lives within a reasonable distance from me @ Foster/Broadway Ave. I am happy to make juice for them as well (FREE). I do make it for the girl at the gas station next door and she is very receptive to it, but on most occassions people are not really down for it. I have set up a new schedual to Juice. It is Mon/Wed/Thurs between 9:30-10:30am. This is when I have my dogwalking clients from next door. I invite anyone to come over and juice with me. Ha Ha. Usually I make a carrot apple mix, sometimes a mellon or pinapple. I always have enough for an extra person. If more than 1 person wants to do this, there is the 'World Market' across the street and they have the best and the least expensive produce around here. All you have to do is show and drink the juice, smile and go on your way. One of the most satifying things I can do for myself is make juice for someone else. This is what I get off on. I am also back into some serious stretching and basic yoga poses that I have not done for a number of years. I can teach them for free as well. Whoever wants it, send a note and I will give you my phone and address. If folks want to keep this thread alive for a little while, post some receipes for healty/cheap eating. My new kick is 2 avacado on my Mcdonalds because I need to be getting at least 1000 extra calories every day. Also more beer and less smoking (half of pack a day instead of an entire one). So far I have been consistant for more than 30 days and I still have not gained 1 pound. I really don't understand why. This should make an interesting thread and I cannot see a reason for a harsh debate on this so I know we can all be nice on this one. Marty

Look again...it's in there! 3 ice cubes, 1 egg. It would be blasphemy to leave those out! ;)

What no egg or ice ?

My juicing only goes as far as making "licuados" (fruit based smoothie-type drink). I grab the blender and throw in a banana, a teaspoon of vanilla extract, a few sprinkles of cinammon, 3 ice cubes, a teaspoon of sugar, an egg, and about 2-3 cups of milk. Blend it up real good and you have a drink that can be had as a quickie breakfast, or just a snack at anytime of the day.
