Juicing!!

So, I've decided it's really time to get healthy, and one thing that I'm doing now, is juicing! I wanted to do a full juice fast, but since your body releases toxins, I can't since I'm still nursing. So I decided to eat a healthy breakfast and dinner, and then drink juice during the day. Today was day 4, and it's going great so far! Today was the first day I didn't really get hungry during the day. The first day, I was starving after about an hour and a half after my first drink. Here's a few recipes I've used!

Green juice:
A few handfuls of chopped kale
A few handfuls of spinach
1 cucumber
8 celery stalks
4 carrots
3 apples
1" piece of ginger

Greens and beets:
2 beets
Beet greens
A couple handfuls of spinach
1" piece of ginger
4 oranges
6 carrots
3 apples

I loved the second one!!! I made one with beets similar to this one, but without the ginger, and I think the ginger really complements the drinks!

I really recommend the documentary Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. It's really interesting! I've been using his website for juice recipes and juicer tips! :)
