Juicing! I'm Trying It!

So I've heard a lot about juicing and how good it is for your body!

As a breast cancer survivor I like to do everything I can to help my body be it's own lean mean fighting machine!

So as you know I've been adding greens to my shakes lately.  Well today I made my first juice!  

It wasn't too bad.  Texture is thicker than I was expecting and will take some time to get adjusted too.
I used my vitamix instead of a juicer.  I wanted all the pulp to still be in my drink so I wouldn't lose the fiber.  I was shocked by how filling it was.  I was expecting to be starving within 30 minutes.  But to my surprise I wasn't hungry for 4 hours.

3 cabbage leaves
1/2 cup oranges
1/2 frozen banana
2 baby carrots
1/2 cup of water

I'm excited to be trying juicing!  But don't worry I still had my Shakeology for lunch!   Please feel free to add your own favorite juices in bathe comments!  I would love to try them!
