60 Day Juice Fast - Day 5

                                  No Chew : Day 5

So today is day five of my juice fast and it's gotten a bit easier which I am so happy about because those cravings have been killing me!  I am feeling much more energetic, when I started this I was having a lot of tightening in my chest area for some reason, that's completely gone as of the last 3 days! And I am sleeping great! There have been quite a few points where I felt like I would have to quit because I wanted food so bad. I ended up chewing a piece of something then spitting it out just to get the desire to eat something out of my mind but it worked and I've had less and less craving since then.  Although today I will have to go to a cook out where they will have cake...which is what I have been craving the most!!! So it will take a large amount of will power today but I have faith that I can make it through the day. Or I'll have to watch Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. (It's also on Netflix) A few times to help me get through it! It's really inspiring if you're doing this fast and feel like you need a bit more inspiration, you should try watching it!

If you'd like to join me in the fast then I'm excited to have more motivation,support, and someone to share results with in return I can motivate you as well! If  you're interested leave a comment or message me here and we can trade tips!

60 Day Juice Fast

                                         No Chew : Day 1


So I'm nearing the end of  the end of day one of my 60 day juice fast and It was relatively easy but I did have a few moments where I craved food so bad that I'd want to eat something I don't even eat. I mean today my friend was eating chicken and I wanted it, and I've been a vegetarian for ten years, I felt so weird afterwards!! I mean I barely ate chicken when I wasn't a vegetarian! I have gotten a few people from my tumblr to join in on the fast and they have been pretty motivational for me. So the more people joining in the better!



These were my first two juices for the day...

The one on the left had Kale, Lemon, Green Apples, and oranges. The one on the right  had apples, Blueberries, Green Grapes Kale Leaves and 1'' Ginger! I put it in the water bottles so that I can make sure I had at least 16 ounces, but the bottles are 16.9 ounces so even better I suppose.

Here is the second set of drinks I made...

 The one on the left had Green apples, Spinach, Kale Leaves, Carrots, and Ginger I drank two bottles of that today. And the one on the right has Apples, Beets, Carrots, Ginger, and Spinach. The Dasani water bottle is actually 20 ounces, because I figured I can save that one to kick start my morning tomorrow, its a bit sweet and I'm hoping it will kill my sweet cravings.


Again if you'd like to join me in the fast then I'm excited to have more motivation,support, and someone to share results with! If  you're interested leave a comment or message me here and we can trade tips!

Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer -- Juice Fasting

Today I went out and bought the Hamilton Beach  Big Mouth Juicer from Walmart. The price was $59.85, $63.00 with tax. Apparently you can get it from Sears for Cheaper, too bad I didn't know that, but it was only about a $10.00 difference so still not too bad. I linked both prices. And It's also on Amazon for just a tiny bit cheaper if you can't or don't want to go out and buy it at those stores!




I decided to buy it because my old juicer was just that, very old! Like ancient! And because I've decided to do a 100 day juice fast or maybe 60 I guess I'm not sure on which just yet. Maybe I'll do 60 and let then decide if I can continue on to 100!


I'm pretty ecstatic to be starting this and I'm sure I will be even happier when I see all the results at the end of it (I'll make sure to post before and after photos!). If anyone has any recipe's I should try then please let me know because I'm relatively new to juicing so I don't always know what fruits and veggies taste good together. Or let me know if you decide to try it with me I will be starting on This coming Tuesday, I will start with a 60 day count down then the extra 40 if I do 100 and I'd love to have some support!

                                                               Any Takers???

September 2013 - Ipsy sneak peeks!

                                                             Sneak # 1

 Item # 1 : "A blend or quick brush of color is an easy timeless upgrade to any look!"  So it's more than safe to say that we will be getting an NYX Cosmetics Single Eye Shadow (Full size presumably) in this months bag. I'm excited to see what the actual colors they will be sending out are!

                                                            Sneak # 2

Item# 2: It's So Big Volumizing Mascara by  Elizabeth Mott. I feel like I have so much Mascara already thanks to ipsy but I'm really wondering if this will actually lengthen your lashes that much. Can't wait to see!


                                                           Sneak # 3

Items # 3-14:

1. John Frieda Shampoo/ Conditioner

2. Tinted Lip Balm- Cailyn Cosmetics

3.  Freeman Paper Facial Masks & Skyn Iceland Cooling Eye Gels

4.Well the item closest to #5 is Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner - Jesse's Girl, but I am still unsure of the other two, other than the fact that they're both eyeliners of course, I'm really hoping for the water proof liner!

5. J. Cat Beauty Lipstick  The other one I am not too sure about could be a nail polish?

6. Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter Pencil & Pouty Pop Crayon


                                                           Sneak # 4

And here's the bag! I like the color, I think the pattern will have to grow on me though.

Stay tuned... 

I will be updating with the rest of the spoilers as they come!

2013 Good Life Vox Box!

 

Hi all, 

 So I got my first ever influenster vox box a few days ago and was super excited to try everything inside!











Box Items...

First...

So the first thing  I tried were the Cranberry Almond THINaddictives

Not sure why I even thought I'd like these because I don't like almond nor do I like cranberries! So needless to say these weren't exactly my favorite. I  ended up not eating past the first bite. But my grandmother liked it so I guess it's not too bad if you're a fan of cranberries and almonds!

Next...

I tried the Zone Perfect Bar Greek Yogurt Rasberry

It tastes AMAZING!!  And knowing that I was eating something that was pretty healthy that actually tasted good gave me a pretty nice feeling.Can' wait to try the other flavors!

Then...

I gave the Garcinia Cambogia Extract a shot.

I guess the hunger suppressant element of these pills work because I took two of these before taking my friend to a birthday dinner and I only felt the desire to eat about a quarter of my meal when I'd usually eat the whole thing! I'm not sure about the " feel good" aspect of it though I mean I guess I was in a pretty good mood but then again I was also happy to see her to begin with so I'm not sure if it really made a difference. But I plan to keep taking them.

As for the other items, I haven't had the opportunity to use either of them just yet.
When I do try both products I will be sure to update! Here are the items:

 Urgent Rx Ache & Pain Relief To-Go-Lemon Lime

                                   New-Skin  Liquid Bandage

Pacifica Alight Multi-Mineral BB Cream Review

I got the Pacifica Alight Multi-Mineral BB cream in this month's glam bag and was ecstatic to try it out.

I really liked the finished look of the BB

cream it has these little flecks of gold in it that makes your skin glow.

         (Application)

 I was pretty skeptical about the shade matching technology but I tried it on my skin and it matched so well and then I tried it on my grandmother who's about 2 maybe 3 shades darker than I am and it matched her's perfectly too! So I guess I'm a believer now!

August Glam Bag Bonus Item!

For getting my two subscribers this month for Ipsy I got a bonus item in my bag! 

This month I wasn't expecting to get a bonus item because I hadn't realized I got more subscribers but I was super excited when I found out because I've been wanting the Urban Decay Moondust Eyeshadow since ipsy started the referral program! 

"Diamond Dog"

 

 I was hoping for a different color, more like any color but this one, I ended up really liking the color on my skin tone.
