Today is the birthday of my dear friend Keith Russell who is in Longview Texas. Happy Birthday and hope that he is well.
I started the day with a mix fruit juice of green apple, celery and capsicum. I chanced upon this diet mix fruit juice recipe from a website that I surfed yesterday.
2 green apples
1 stick of celery
1/2 capsicum seeded
1/2 teaspoon of salt
and sugar to taste
If you are using a blender/food processor, you need to add 1 cup of water. If you use a juicer like I do, the natural juice of the fruits/veg is enough. The salt is to prevent the juice to turn dull in colour. Don't worry, the capsicum is not hot. Add sugar just enough to get rid of the bitter taste of the capsicum.
I had the drink in between my cardio exercise on my steps machine and my weight lifting session at 7.00 am. A half an hour exercise really makes me sweat like I have been running for my dear life. It is nice to be able to exercise while watching NYPD Blue on AXN Beyond or Pussycat Dolls on MTV.
Blueberries muffin for breakfast at 8.00 am, just before I leave for the office.
10.00 am snack is the same juice that I've made from home. I kind of like the taste of the juice. Its different, with a salty and sweet taste.
Lunch is the chicken pie that I baked last night for yesterday's dinner.
I am going to have another muffin at 4.30pm, and I am set for the day. Dinner is another story.
