I Begin With a Challenge!

SEXY GREEN JUICE!!
This blender/juicer has a story...

I've been inspired to change my life, in every single way, but especially in regards to what I put in my mouth and give to my body.  For years I have believed that what I would eat wasn't bad for me, that there is no way that our government agencies would allow bad food to be put out there for people to consume.  Boy, was I wrong!

During the last year, I've noticed that something is wrong in my body.  I felt more stressed, tired and sick.  Coffee was no longer good, dairy made me feel terrible and I always got colds and chest pain.  I would go to my doctor to see what was wrong, I was told it was only acid reflux and not that bad.  Months later....heart murmur.  Ever since that moment in the Emergency Room I knew I had to change but I wasn't really knew or  told how.

For months I have been reading, researching and watching whatever would teach me how to seriously take care of this body of mine.  I've read many good articles, books and watched good documentaries.  Then I discovered what has changed me and my view on health and life in general, Crazy Sexy Diet by Kris Carr.  Nothing has touched me more than her book and inspirational story.

In her book, Kris Carr really lets people know that most of the ailments and diseases in modern society could be prevented or treated with the right nutrition AND caused by our terrible nutrition.  My eyes and mind have been opened to a whole new world and am very thankful.

NOW..after that long preface I am here to say that for the next week I, along with two co-workers, will be starting a green cleanse.  For one week we shall only drink fresh green juice, followed by two weeks of a strictly vegetable and juice diet.

HERE I will journal how it works, how we do it, how we feel, how it changes us and everything in between!

I CHALLENGE YOU!  I challenge anyone that reads this to do your own research about nutrition and read Crazy Sexy Diet.  Above all I challenge you to be INFORMED about what you are putting into your body, as it is the only instrument you TRULY own.

SHARE YOUR STORY! If you have done a cleanse or major change in your diet, how did it go? What inspired you and how do you feel?
