Green Smoothie Cleanse Shopping List

I went shopping today for the cleanse this week. Today I bought:

Mangoes
Pineapple
Apples
Kale
Spinach
Coffee
Mio
Chocolate Almond Milk
Vanilla Coconut Milk
Raw Almonds
Large 4-pound Bag of Frozen Mixed Fruit
Steam-able Broccoli
Steam-able Green Beans

I already have enough canned beans, quinoa, and flax seed to feed an army so I didn't have to buy any. If you need to buy them dry beans are cheaper but I like the convenience of canned. You can also choose more vegetables if you want, there wasn't a large selection at the store so I just grabbed what was there. Also, I buy most of my vegetables frozen in the steam packages. If you would rather have fresh vegetables from the produce section or the farmers market, go for it.

I bought all my stuff at the Walmart Marketplace because it's right down the road from my house. Most of my beans, quinoa, and flax seed are from Aldi. I do most of my shopping there but it's a bit more of a drive and I was in a hurry.

All in all, I spent $63.33 USD on the cleanse and it's enough to last my husband and I all week.

My First Day at GNC

Well today was my first day at GNC. When I asked for my days off she seemed understanding because I brought it up on the first day. However, my probation period is ninety days and I'm not allowed to use the cash register and I'm taking tests and training the whole time. So by the time I'm planning to leave and start working in a Fitness Facility I would still be on probation. I feel bad for only staying with them such a short time and them investing training into me. I'm wondering how long this will last. I plan to stick it out for a while and see how it goes. I'm not worrying about it because I know God has great plans for me and I just have to trust Him. I have applied for ten fitness facility positions on post this week and this weekend I will be applying to fitness facilities in the city that I am in. Hopefully something comes through and I can start putting my schooling and passion to use!

I Love My Coffee

I love coffee. I don't necessarily NEED to have it. I even stopped drinking it for a while and just had tea but I love the taste of it. I used to drink Starbucks all the time but now I make my coffee at home. When it started to get hot here I stopped drinking my coffee in the morning because hot coffee and hot weather was just too much for me. Then I realized I should just make iced coffee! I have a couple recipes I have been using lately and would love to write them. Some of them are healthy and some of them, not so much. Vanilla Creme: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) Drops of Vanilla Creme SweetLeaf Stevia Drops to taste Chocolate Raspberry: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) Drops of Chocolate Raspberry SweetLeaf Stevia Drops to taste Iced Mocha Coffee: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) A couple squirts of Hershey's Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup You can basically make it anyway you want to. I would love to get the flavors of Hazelnut, Pumpkin S...
