what I drank today

I've lost 55 pounds so far!

Today I had two vegetable juices and a fruit juice.  My vegetable juices are pretty much the same:

Base
4 apples
6 carrots
6 or 7 stalks of celery
1 cucumber
1/4 a lemon or lime
8 oz red leaf lettuce or spinach

Then I add one of the following: a slice of red or green cabbage, 1/2 a bell pepper (any color), or a tomato.

This morning I made two veggie juices -- one with red cabbage and one with green cabbage.

I also had a fruit juice -- 2 pears, 2 apples, 1/4 of a lemon, and 4 oz spinach (spinach changes the color of fruit juice, but not the taste, and it's VERY good for you. :)

Oh, and I made another fruit juice for tomorrow morning: 3 carrots, 2 oranges, 1/4 of a lime, and 4 oz of spinach.  Carrot may be a vegetable, but it goes into a fruit juice at least once a week because it's so good for you and a little sweet.

Not ALL my fruit juices have greens or sour citrus in them; it just so happens that all of today's did.
