Peter is shredding

My hubby is a personal trainer and owner of More Fitness here in Niagara.

And a hottie-biscotti.

He and a handful of his friends from Bible school have been doing a cute little competition for 12 weeks.

I don't know exactly what it all entails, and or a "winner" will be decided.

Once I do, I will post.

They are on week 11, and Peter is taking this whole thing really seriously. I have never seen his body transform like this before. (....well, there was that one year early in our marriage when we had $25.00/week to spend on groceries, and we both became sticks for a season....) but this is a different kind of incredible!

He has 1 more week to go, and this week he is "shredding". That's when you take all of the muscle you built, and then moderately cut-out a portion of your carbohydrate intake and shed fat.

It's temporary, and he likes the challenge he is putting his body through. Its for a small season, and he knows its not "ideal" for everyone. aka. don't do it without a professional giving you guidance.

And so am I shedding too... Carrots! --- I love juicing these babies!

Juicing and Juicers and the Juice on Juicing

I don't know how I got coined the "go to person" in my circle of friends and family about what juicer to get... but if I gave you access to my facebook account (I'm an open book, I would actually be fine with giving you full access to it)....anyways!

You would find in my message box over 10 different requests for juicer advice on what one to buy.

Not gonna lie... after writing the 4th reply over the last year or so... I ended up copying and pasting the information to the other 6 askers... there I go again... open book.

Here is my BEST resource for selecting a juicer.

I send all of my inquirers to this website because its literally what I would tell them but in an incredibly detailed and experienced manner. We have owned 2 juicers.

One that was a Jack Lalame one (lame being used on purpose here) and an OMEGA 8005 juicer. The Jack version was a "beginners" mistake because we didn't really know what we were looking for, and got the cheapest one we could find, on sale. After realizing it was a pain in the behind to clean, use and generally terrible at juicing... we began to research juicers online. And by researching, I mean we watched like 100 youtube videos, and read a tonne of blogs (like this one) about juicers until we were set on getting the OMEGA.

Here is a youtube video of our son making "mango ice cream" with his daddy!
