CONCEPTION
So it began, in our collective effort to keep the pounds at bay and live a healthful life we decided to walk the path of a JUICE CLEANSE for 7 days! Or however long I can maintain my sanity and being a "good Mommy". One who knows us; our love of food, frolic and wine drinking may say…."Why in the hell would you do that??!?"
Let me explain. Nate and I originally created commonality as friends 8 years ago with our interests in sports (I was never at his level) working out (again the aforementioned) and a healthy life. I grin as I type, oh how children change things. Anyway, we are always trying a new plan to shed the extra pounds and revive the vigor and taught tummy of our youth.
However...Netflix, goddamned Netflix is where this concept gained momentum. After the first February dumping of snow in 2014 we cleaned the house, organized some junk drawers and soon turned to the TV. We watched, "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead". It was not only entertaining, but mesmerizing to see the transformation in this man. He decided to shed masticating for slurppy slop in a glass. Only to be met with fewer pounds, more energy and NO MEDS! We watched his 60 day journey and before you knew it, the concept was born.
I apprehensively resigned to 7 days of an attempt at no food (as such), no coffee, no wine, no sweets and hopefully a reboot of my body with less pounds.
If you think I am sharing my weight, you must be nuts, but I will share the journey, our recipes, how we feel and our collective progress.
