Day 1 of Detox Drinks with My Juice Plus Ladies

…And I mixed up a glass with ¾ cup water, ¼ cup cranberry juice, 2 tablespoons lemon juice (½ a juicy lemon), and 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar. TANGY.

The goal is to drink a glass of potion before each meal for 10 days. The idea is to flush toxins and what not, but after trying my first batch, I think it’s so fat is scared off by the bitter train that courses through the body. MAN it is a zippy drink.

When I got the first cup down at 7 a.m., pre-coffee and barely awake, I felt like I swallowed paint thinner or something that could start an instant war in the intestinal region. The sensation was not pleasant and made me vaguely nervous about how fast I could get to the bathroom if need be (sorry for the TMI gentle readers). The weirdness passed though and after a Complete Protein Shake for breakfast, I forgot all about it.

Trying in general to eat more veggies, especially after four days in New York where I really didn’t see one until I got back to California. Ahem.

Until lunch. Drink #2 took longer to get down and I really regret not honing my chug-ability long before now. The strange stomach feelings from breakfast were no factor though and the only ill side effect was the proliferation of what my old boss euphemistically referred to as “bio breaks.” Really glad I work from home sometimes.
