Juice cleanse

I'm craving peanut butter.

I slaved in the kitchen all day over sugar cookies made from scratch to take to the inlaws for xmas dinner. They're terrible. Absolutely terrible.

I can't stop eating them

Might need to do another batch if husband breaks into them when he gets home. I locked them up in a container. Need a padlock.

OH, I love this thread!!!

I want some !!!!!!!!!!!

Now I don't feel bad about the peppermint that I was sucking on.

Usually I buy dough and throw it in the oven. This was the first time I did it from scratch. I know exactly how much butter and sugar is in them. I wish I didn't.

Never buying sugar cookies or dough ever again. I left 2 on a plate for husband. Really I should legitimately hide them and all evidence of their existence.

I love sugar cookies. They are my favorite!

You're making me hungry, or should I say hungrier!

You will have to share your recipe.

Today makes 1 week on the juice cleanse. I weighed in this morning and I have lost 8 lbs. I did cheat for breakfast. I boiled 2 duck eggs and ate them for breakfast.

I'm craving grilled Tilapia and a baked sweet potato. I guess I can't have that for another 21 days.

Congrats! You're aiming for the whole 30 days? I don't know if I can. Perhaps starting Jan 1st after this holiday food nonsense is over.

To be totally honest, I don't think that I can do 30 days. It's VERY difficult. I had to cheat a few days with steamed cabbage (2) days, 4 fresh fruit and 1 cup of steamed greens throughout the week, so I guess it wasn't 100% juice cleanse. I may try another week and see how it goes. I know I will have to cheat by eating a few fresh fruit.

I'm excited about shopping healthy and changing how I eat. Will incorporate more fish and eliminate red meat. Although do love ground turkey.

MMmmm Turkey burgers made with duck egg, a little flour, garlic, basil, cilantro, fine chopped onion, and sharp cheddar cheese and sprouts on top of a toasted onion bun...
