Man Down!

Well, we've hit our first speed bump of the challenge - illness. John's been a sniffling mess for months now - we blame it on working the nightshift and never getting any quality sleep. We went to the doc before our Jamaica trip only to be given antibiotics for a sinus infection, which we both knew it was not. And sure enough after finishing the medicine, John was still going through tissues like a madman.

Last weekend he starting feeling a lot worse, fever and all. So we went to the doctor (again) and he was told to take claratin for allergies, which we both know it's not (again) and to come back in 2 weeks (because the last 2 months have not been long enough...) if he's not better.

So, dear readers, while exercising is on hold we have a new and (more) exciting challenge for you! I got ...drumroll.... Jack LeLane's Power Juicer Pro! for my birthday! John will be writing a real blog about it, but in short - it is an amazing juicer and we plan to stay with the health theme of exercising by drinking our daily servings of fruits and veggies. We did our first juicing last night - AppleCarrot Juice - and man was it orange. Details to come... stay tuned.
