Worry Free, Healthy Me

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...

Hi everyone! I mentioned in a previous post about going on a green smoothie cleanse. In this post I'm going to talk about some of the guidelines. Guidelines: I put guidelines instead of rules because some people have dietary restrictions, preferences, etc. So do what you can and if not, it's not the end of the world. For this cleanse you are not going to want dairy. No, I'm not just saying that because I don't eat any animal products. I'm saying this because dairy takes a while for your body to process and that is not  what we want to happen during the cleanse. If you want or need milk or creamer use plant milk or creamer. I suggest So Delicious brand but Blue Diamond, Silk, or any other plant milks/creamers would work as well. Do not, I repeat, do not  only have the green smoothies! If you do, you will feel as though you are starving because you are not actually chewing something. It's a good idea to have snacks if you are hungry. You will make one gian...
