I am obsessed with fresh fruit right now, I can’t get enough. Are you like me? Remember the fruit infused waters that I made last year in mason jars? These were such a hit and one of the most popular posts both here and at Inhabitots. They are that yummy!
Today I came across the Define Bottle – it’s a to-go option for the fruit infused water lover. What a fun way to take your fruity beverage with you. However, my favorite part is that Divine Bottle was created by Carter, a 13 year old entrepreneur. Fantastic.
What do you think? Would you drink fruit infused water on the go?

Hello, Friends! The 30 day juice detox is officially over – while, we initially thought that we would do a 60 day cleanse, it didn’t work out that way. We have been contemplating moving our family and over the weekend – everything started to come together. We found a home in a neighborhood (it’s closer to friends, family and school) that we have always loved and signed the paperwork! We will be moving mid-May. To celebrate, we decided to break the fast and went out to dinner – the mister and I shared.
I thought that it was going to be a big deal for me – it really wasn’t. I have to admit, I wish that I would have stayed on the fast longer. We have still been drinking our juices for breakfast and lunch, then having a small healthy dinner. It is going well, I started to workout again (for the first time in 1 month!) and I don’t feel stiff or sore. However, I have already gained back 5 lbs! I knew this would happen though – and that is alright too. I plan to continue eating super clean and working out – so hopefully everything will stabilize.
Overall, this has been an amazing experience, I really learned a lot about myself and I feel stronger and healthier. I want to do the juice detox every 3 months – so I will be doing it again at the end of July.
Have you ever tried a juice detox, what did you think?
