Lets Talk: Birthday Freak Out

Birthday Freak Out
I came to the realization that within a year, I would be 30 years old (I still feel 21). I’m not ready or prepared.  I have never been one of those people who worries about their age. When every birthday comes I celebrate and move on. But this birthday was really hard on me. I was fine till the morning of my birthday and that is when it hit me.  I had a minor freak out with tears and everything. The little voice inside my head was saying your life needs an overhaul.  Nothing was going according to plan. I should have had my dream career by now and at least seen some of Europe, and etc you get the picture, friends. After taking some time off to reflect, I realized that it was just a freak out and in the end, I’m really blessed in so many ways.

Have any of you friends had a birthday freak out and how did you deal with it?

Afternoon Snack

My diet is made up of  meat and cakes.  Eating Vegetables or taking my vitamins is always a challenge for me, the only way to  get my vitamins and vegetables into my daily meals  is through  juicing.  I add my favorite fruit and vegetables through my juicer and I get  myself at least my 2 servings  of fruits and vegetables. I try to do this everyday; it only take me 10 minutes tops to juice.

I get A cup of Kale which is a good source of Antioxidants, Calcium, Fiber,  Iron and (Vitamins A, C & K).

2 Carrots will provides "210% of the average daily recommended amount of vitamin A, 10% vitamin K, 6% vitamin C, 2% calcium."  for more information (read).

Half a cucumber with skin is a good source of Vitamin B, and C. for more information ( click here).

1 Apple + 1 Orange  ( for all the information on vitamins on apple  and oranges click here).

I love everything about ginger from the way it smells to  the way it tastes. On top of everything else ginger has great health benefits.  I don't like the taste of carrot juice but  ginger helps in covering the smell  and  it makes the juice taste better.  read up on the risk and benefits of ginger .

Put everything through the  juicer or blend and you got yourself a nice afternoon snack that is good for your body and soul. Remember to use your favorite  fruits and vegetables .

 Happy Juicing!!!

Happy Father's Day!

 

 Happy Father's Day!! To every Dad out there.
