.Ok, I am seeing all of these Juicer replies on here. I have never used one in my life..... Are they that great? Is there a specific brand? What gives? :--)
I have a juicer that I like. It works great to get extra fruits and veggies in. The only down side is that it is pretty costly to use as you have to go through quite a bit of produce to get your cup of juice. Mine is the Jack LaLane (not sure about that spelling) and I think it costs about $100.
I'm on a Dave Ramsey kind of budget. Guess I will settle for just eating them for now. :-(. :-)
I hear you! I have my juicer but don't use it all that often just because of the cost of produce these days. Eating them gets the job done too!
I use the Omega 8006 juicer and try to juice about 4-5x a week. It is an investment but this is a great juicer. Literally leaves the pulp super dry. I usually do a combination of three: cucumber, celery, spinach, kale, apples, and pears. I do not buy all my fruit organic except for my leafy greens.
What do you spend in a week on produce?0 -

Thanks for sharing that info. I am not familiar with that juicer. Have you ever tried the juicer recipe from that show "Fat, sick and nearly dead"? You can find it online. I tried it and it was sooooo gross,:huh: but I think I used too much ginger. I might try it again as it is very healthy.
I have not tried that recipe but did see the documentary. Careful with that ginger LOL! I stick to a simple combination of 2 parts veggie 1 part fruit. Another great recipe is the Glowing Green Smoothie, all veggies and fruits are blended whole. Check it out http://kimberlysnyder.net/blog/ggs/. This makes a huge batch, so I divide it in half.
I am going to have to give that a try! Good info!
I drink mean green juice from the Fat Sick and Nearly Dead movie almost every day . Yes, just watch the ginger. I tend to like more than most, but my family wont't drink it if I put as much as I like in. I have a Breville juicer, but it was expensive. I think that it was $450, but I use it every day. I do make lots of extra juice and store it in air tight mason jars for up to 48 hours. Makes meal planning super easy.0 -
Possibly a silly question. Do beans and potatoes (sweet or white) count as veggies? I generally roll them up as proteins/starches. Just curious.0

That's a great idea about storing the juice in the mason jars. I'm going to have to try that. Sometimes I don't have the time to make it fresh every time and that would really help. Thanks for the great tip! I am also going to try that recipe again.. with less ginger this time.0 -
Possibly a silly question. Do beans and potatoes (sweet or white) count as veggies? I generally roll them up as proteins/starches. Just curious.
That is not a silly question at all! In fact I really was not sure and had to google it to get some info on the subject. Potatoes are a root vegetable. They are a starchy vegetable. I say for the sake of the challenge both white and sweet potatoes count for points. Keep in mind that the sweet potatoes have more vitamins in them. The skin of the potatoes also offer a source of fiber.0 -

I am so sorry to hear about your son and husband. The flu is going around here like crazy too. It is a bad year for it. I hope they get well soon. Good job on your challenge! The fact that you have still thought about your Team Bob during such a stressful time for you deserves a gold star!
Long distance gold star sent your way!! 0 -
