What is pain?

So I have officially started training for the 3 Day! In addition to that I started working out again. So I have been working out and/or walking 3 miles everyday! Plus not only am I working out but I'm "suffering!" My "Suffering" is when you feel like your too tired to keep going but you keep going anyway and not only do you keep going but you add more and go faster! Well after suffering on Tuesday, I woke up Wednesday super sore! I went and visited with my Grandma and my brother Eric. We all ran errands together and I kept complaining about how sore I was. Then while we were having lunch after many complaints from me, I once again said how sore I was. Eric said, "Do you know what pain is?" I said, "Gain?" He says, "No it's weakness leaving your body!" I just love that! I think it's a Marines motto!

So along with my new active lifestyle I have also started juicing! No not steroids! I am using a juicer! So if I have any good tips I will share them here. So far a really good one is half a papaya and 2 oranges then take that juice and put it in the blender with a banana. That in itself is really yummy, but then I added a scoop of Green Food powder (Yup I went green!) and a Tbl spoon of organic Flax oil and there you have it. The Green Food and Flax oil didn't change the taste much but it did change the color. It didn't look very good at all but it did taste good and I know it's good for you. Doug even drank it!
