. 279/365 .


shrek in a jar.  that's what i like to call it anyways. 

this week has been an attempt to overhaul my soul.  overhaul my mind, my emotions, my everything.  ok, not really my everything, but i tend to take zero time for myself.  i'm lucky if i actually shower 3 times a week.  seriously.  if this thing had smell-o-vision, you'd turn it off.  i actually did take a shower last night though, so i smell like roses right now, but any other time .. i'd stank!

back to the point ..
i really take no time for myself.  i feel gross.  i feel tired.  i feel lazy.  i feel nasty.  i feel extremely exhausted and run down.  normally i'd just take a vacation.  but i can't do that right now, so instead, i opted for actually taking care of myself. 

enter in shrek in a jar.  i've been doing great with hardly any caffeine, lots of water, lots of vitamins, and lots of fresh air, but my eating still isn't great.  i never eat breakfast b/c i have 5 other mouths to feed at that time.  by the time i give them their plates, they're giving them right back and it's time to move on to the next activity.  so, i thought i'd try green smoothies for my breakfast.  they are so super healthy and i'm really trying my best to get healthy skin and just to feel healthy. 

here's what i put in it ... 2 handfuls of fresh, organic spinach.  2 bananas.  1c. milk, 1tsp vanilla, and crushed up airborne.  i think it was the airborne that did it in.  it had a bitter taste to it.  the dog didn't even like it.  seriously.  i drank about half of it, well, because it's healthy.  and i was hungry.

i went straight to the fridge and opened up a coke.  not really what i'm going for, but i had to have something!!  i think i'll keep trying until i find the right concoction.  i couldn't taste the spinach at all, so it's the other stuff i gotta work on.  it definitely needs to be sweeter.  we shall see.

  1. OK, so I am DEFINITELY not a good friend since I sent you a picture of the nice big ICEE BEFORE I read your blog on the Shrek Smoothies. Ugghhh, so sorry. To make it up to you, I will try your Shrek concoction once you perfect it's greatness!!! (I seriously need to get healthy too!)
