This year marks 25 years in radio for me and I’ve decided I want to start my journey by living clean. So, today I started JJ Smith’s 10 Day Green Smoothie Cleanse. I’m doing the modified cleanse which consist of two green smoothies (one for breakfast and one for lunch), with one healthy meal for dinner, snack, and water/tea. The only healthy meal a day may consist of a salad, sauteed veggies, fish or chicken (grilled or baked). Avoid white sugar, meat, milk, cheese, alcohol, coffee, sodas, processed foods, fried foods and refined carbs during the entire ten days.
Do Not Eat: Don’t eat refined sugar, red meat, milk, cheese, liquor, beer, coffee, sodas/diet sodas, processed foods, fried foods, refined carbs (white bread, pastas donuts, etc.)
Day #5 Peach Berry Spinach
2 handfuls spinach
2 cups of water
1 cups frozen peaches
1 handful fresh or frozen seedless grapes
1 1/2 cup blueberries
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
1 scoop of vanilla protein
2 packets of stevia (if you desire more sweetness)
Place leafy greens and water into blender and blend until mixture is green juice like consistency. Stop blender and add remaining ingredients. Blend until creamy.
Spiritual thought: Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
Choose: We will never enjoy life unless we make a quality decision to do so. Satan is an expert at stealing and our joy is one of his favorite targets. If he can steal our joy from us, we will be weak; and when we are weak, the enemy takes advantage of us.
Weak believers are no threat to him and his work of destruction. In order to live as God intends for us to live, the first thing we must do is truly believe that it is God;s will for us to experience continual joy. Experiencing enjoyment in our souls is vitally important to our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. It is God’s will for us to enjoy life now! Now it is time to decide to enter into the full and abundant life that God wills for us.
