This week has been a very good week. I haven't felt this good in a long time :). Yes, I do have some stressors, but it's all good, as the kids say.
I went out last night and bought the ingredients for my health drink I use to make a few years ago. I put organic juice, soy protein powder, veggie mix, Aloe Vera juice, any kind of fruit (I usually put apples and bananas), and an antioxidant fiber. It is very good for cleansing the system. Makes me quite regular.
I'm not much of a breakfast person. I can sip on this pretty much through lunch time. I can eat a nice light dinner with a salad, drink lots of water throughout the day and be good shape in a week or so. I'm not one for being 'strict' with my diet so, if I desire, I can still eat the way I want. My goal is not to be on a diet. My goal is to improve my eating habits, to eat a bit more healthier. I still enjoy meat and fast food. I just won't be eating as much of it. I want more fruits, veggies and ruffage in my diet. I really think my diet is a significant part of how I've been feeling. I started this before, not too long ago, but I did not stay disciplined. I did decrease my fast food intake, but I could do better with my meals at home.
So, this is the goal, to improve my diet and to encourage myself to feel better, have more energy and to be a little healthier.

I am back on track with eating well. It makes a difference. But takes such effort. Sometimes, sometimes I cannot be bothered. I just do it anyway.
Your health drink sounds great. At the end of the day, you are what you eat.
Linda,
I absolutely agree. What we eat can make us feel good or feel horrible and sluggish. I really don't like that feeling. Making the drink makes it a little more convenient to eat right. However, the process of making the drinks is what takes discipline.
