The question last week was "To Juice or Not to Juice", yesterday at an unexpected visit to the ER (Are they ever expected?) the doc on duty said that I should not juice because I'm a diabetic and the juice would go straight to bloodstream, and any elevation in sugars would be more severe. I was right about eating as he mentioned, "you need to eat your veggies for ruffage; it keeps your sugar levels regular."
That said, it's back to eating! I will juice at breakfast and dinner. For lunch I'll eat chicken or fish and greens, and for my mid-day snacks I'll eat veggies. I need to drink lots of water and add a walk and swim in the morning and in the evening doc says to get my blood circulating. KILL ME why don't ya? Just kidding, I know I have to do these things!
Bon Appetit!

To Juice or Not To Juice... This is the Question.
I've been wondering if I am doing the right thing. Should I keep juicing this week or should I start blending? You see, although I am Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, I'm also and most certainly a diabetic! I am worried that even though I feel grrreat, I'm lacking the fiber my body needs to regulate my blood sugars.
I started wondering when everyone else on the juice was going to the bathroom like crazy but I wasn't. Mom said, "there's nothing there, it's juice!" Alrighty then, I will continue to research and I'll let you know what I come up with. Before the end of the day, I may turn to a blender instead of the juicer. Hmmm... can't really decide which I want. The picture above? Or the picture below? Both look scrumptious. Ha!
Happy Juicing!
