Dtox: SO YOU CAN HAVE YOUR CAKE AND JUICE IT TOO

I like to make my children's birthday cakes.  I always have.  I'm pretty good at it and they always love to help me do it.  I like to bake with them.  Granted we don't do food coloring anymore (look for a post eventually about coloring with beets, eggplants, turmeric, etc) and it's hard to really figure out gluten free and dairy free baking sometimes, but I'm trying.  But, like this weekend, I just bought the box and whipped it out.  I did make my own icing though.  When I bake, I end up over indulging in batter and icing and cake.  But that's okay because.....

There is DTOX on Monday morning. 

I like juicing for the same reasons that I like yoga-they are both reliable and they work.    They both make me look and feel my best.  They are both convenient.  When you have your juices for the day, there is no looking for lunch or making bad choices once hunger sets in. 

With yoga and juicing, I know that I can enjoy my Easter weekend of indulging because I will work it all out the following week.  I'm being proactive about my health and wellness and the lovely side effect of staying trim is a definite plus.  You can stray from yoga, you can stray from juicing but they are always there to come back to over and over and over again. Knowing this helps me enjoy my life without guilt.

So you can have your cake and juice it too!
