The Juice on the Skinny Bitch Diet

First, let me say, dieting is hard to do. I've broken up with the Skinny Bitch one a time or two, but we're working things out and getting back together--with a few changes.

I'll be the first to admit that darn diet changed my eating habits--for the better. My crisper contains more fruits and veggies and my pantry shelves are no longer filled with processed food filled with preservatives and difficult to pronounce unknowns. My digestive tract does less grumbling too.

The sight of all that bloody meat at the market sends me scurrying to the colorful fresh produce aisle. I rarely place a can in my cart except for tuna and salmon. I choose organic when given the opportunity. I eat greener, fresher and almost chemical free. Yippee for me!

So why doesn't my bathroom scale reflect this happiness? Good question. I guess you can have too much of a good thing too. You see in order to eat all those fruits and veggies I bought a juicer, and I love that shiny little machine. I juice five fruits every morning and five vegetables every evening.

I'm possessed by fresh juice. I wake up in the morning thinking about what fruit mimosa I'm going to concoct. After work, my new happy hour is watching five veggies become an elixir from the earth compliments of Mother Nature.


So thank you Skinny Bitch Diet, I've made progress but there is still work to do. I'm still dealing with the sugar devil and a work schedule that steals me away from those long walks I enjoy along the bluffs above the Pacific Ocean.

Life is a journey, change is a process and bad habits are hellishly hard to kick to the curb!
