The healthy lifestyle stopped at regular exercise.
With a new year and my ‘honeymoon’ period over I am ready to get back to focusing on a healthier lifestyle. I have been following Jess Ainscough, The Wellness Warrior, for some time now. And finally I bought her newly published book Make Peace with Your Plate this week.

My second goal will be: Learn to get some of the great nutrients as a juice.
I will need to buy a juicer. So something to research this week. In the meantime I started small with my blender. Just some apples, bananas and kiwis:
Healthy food is cooking right now. I’d better go and check on it.
Happy and Healthy Eating everyone.
