Veggie Juice Recipe

I've been feeling off and sluggish recently and trying everything to feel better. This morning I decided to make a veggie "smoothie". I've been reading how amazing veggie juice is for energy and glowing skin, so why not try my own? As much as I love Naked Green Machine it has WAY too many carbohydrates. Try this option for almost no carbs (the few carbs are healthy, long-lasting carbs). Although I definitely do not prefer it over a fruit smoothie the nutritional benefits seem to be worth it! At least the color looks nice ....

Fitness Goal

Another quick post because we still don't have internet! Today has been the first day I've had any time to myself and I decided to spend it in a yoga class. I forgot how much I love exercising almost daily and how it makes me feel. Goals for next week: Join a gym or dance studio, go to the Bikram Yoga studio I found in my new neighborhood, workout every other day, yoga or meditation EVERY day, and eat healthier (aka pack lunch for work and class). Do you have any fitness or health goals for the new week??

Do this now:
