Add to Technorati Favorites fit friday for 6/26/09

* Do you pack food with you to go to work or to school? How about if you are a road warrior (driving a lot for work)?

* I figured out what was clogging my shakes up: fresh blueberries! I’d heard they were a good fiber source but..who knew?! I’m back to blending with frozen (mixed) berries instead (of the blueberry, coagulated, jello mold).

Today’s shake: 1 scoop Designer Whey protein + 1 scoop of Barlean’s Greens + 1 Tb Barlean’s Essential Woman oil(s) + 1 C vanilla almond milk (you can make this, btw!) + 1 TB Redmill Flaxseed meal + huge amount of berries (nearly 1 C).

* If you are up late at night (and sometimes during the day) and you watch infomercials, you’ve no doubt seen the one for the Jack LaLane juicer. Excuse me, POWER Juicer. Even if you haven’t, you know who Jack LaLane is, or how old and fabulous he is. The juicer was even the subject during the hour of a Sirius satellite radio show last month. hint: they sell ‘em at CostCo. I know because that is where mine is from. Seemed like a great idea at the time.

Bottom line: it can make you a delicious cup of juice in one minute. It can cut through most anything but wheatgrass (bummer). The bummers are: when you look in the post-juiced waste receptacle, you will see how much “fruit” is actually still in there and of course, all the fiber and then it will take you another 5-7 minutes to clean the da*n thing! [And you can't slack off--I only know from experience; if you let the "blade" and basket dry post-juicing without taking it apart piece by da*n piece and handcleaning it, it simply won't work next time.] The recipe booklet is bogus because you can juice practically anything and the combinations are endless.

I do NOT recommend this juicer and I should take advantage of CostCo’s liberal return policy.

* I enjoy the comedy of Kathy Griffin. Saw her in person last month and she looks great. Newly thin. She added that she is starving “all the time”. (F-bombs deleted). Then if you saw her show with Paula Deen, you learned something along with me! Paula said that she actually EATS the foods she tastes on her shows unlike “the other” Food Network babes who spit it out. She said she actually “swallows” and then…cue the double entendre…

* DRINK WATER DRINK WATER DRINK WATER DRINK WATER DRINK WATER

* This could imply to any area of “fit” and is from the same email the picture HERE came from:
