REALLY?! REALLY?! YES!!!

Ok, y’all I have to share with you the most awesome freakin news ever!!! Ok maybe not ever..but for me right now it’s really freakin awesome news! I got to order my Vita-mix 5200!!!! It should actually be here by Friday! I am so excited!!! I can’t wait to make my green smoothies again and fresh guacamole, salsa, hummus, rasberry sorbet, broccoli and cheese soup, taco soup,…and the list goes on and on!

As I had already told y’all earlier this year, that where I work is doing a Biggest Loser competition and so far I have not done all that hot. The first week I was excited after weighing and I had lost 2.4 lbs..then this week..I gained 3lbs!!! What the Hey?! Ugh….so starting monday: I will be starting a Green Smoothie Challenge. These smoothies really are so good and so healthy for you. I will be getting an average of 15 servings of fruits and vegetables from my smoothies. I am so tired of saying I am going to lose weight and then never sticking with it or really losing the weight. I want to kiss this weight goodbye!

I know my husband has told me that for the money we spent on the Vitamix I better use it everyday..So, I want to post on here what I make in it and keep myself accountable to staying on track. I promise you honey, I will use it at least once every day if not more! I want to get into the habit of getting up and going to the gym and then coming back home and having a green smoothie for breakfast.

My plan is that for the next 12 weeks I have a green smoothie for breakfast and for lunch then have a sensible dinner. I will probably have a snack in the afternoon of something like homemade guacamole or salsa with raw veggies.

So, I have the weekend to buy my groceries and get used to using my Vitamix..then Monday the fun starts. I want to blow my co-workers away with how well I am doing; not blow them away with how much I am gaining! Here we go! 🙂
