Day Ten

I made it to my first goal.  I knew I could do it, but at times I was hating, and questioning the whole process.  Today was a snap.  Hardly any food cravings, and I felt good.  Stable, and alert with energy right from the start of the day.  We went shopping for more fruit, and then came back and made some juice.

Fruit Juice (for two)

1/2 a pineapple
a pint of blackberries
4 kiwis
2 apples
1 pear

The pectin in the berries made the juice nice and thick.  It was wonderful having something in my mouth that had some substance to it, and the the juice tasted amazing.

We made 2 big batches of Mean Green right after the fruit juice to save on clean up time.  Crystal had the idea of putting the vacuum top from the wine set right into the spout of my plastic work bottle, and it fit nicely and made a good seal.  With all the air pulled out of the bottle the juice would stay good in the fridge, and have minimal degradation until I left for work.
