My Review:
 I have been hearing a lot lately about juicing and its benefits from weight loss to just plain old feeling better physically and mentally. I came across Cheryl Long and her blog Treasures from a Shoebox because we are both homeschooling moms. First, I would have to say Cheryl is a very brave woman to forgo eating solid food for 60 days is no easy feat. So first off I would like to commend her on accomplishing this insurmountable goal. I am sure it was not easy. I have been contemplating doing this myself and still have not had the guts to do it. But I am putting in a spinach bed and hope to get started on it real soon.
 I myself can relate to some of what Cheryl has been through. I myself during and after having my 4 babies really can not or my body refuses (not sure which) to allow me to get back to even close the weight I was before it all went down hill. Cheryl's tell all journey is a really good look into what it is like, the up's the down's. Relying on the Lord, Cheryl and her family were able to gain a better sense of mental and physical health. Showing us all that if we try to look deep within ourselves we can have the same resolve.

The price of the 56 page eBook is $2.99 right now. Not a bad price at all. Here is a link to her website to learn more.
