When I first thought about doing a green juice detox cleanse three years ago, my first thought was “No way in hell.” After all, I’m a total foodie, I like my wine, and giving up food flashed me back to a decade of deprivation during medical school and residency, when I was lucky to get one meal a day because I was too busy working my ass off to eat.

Have you ever endured a business lunch? Oh the joy of sandwiches in the conference room again, or worse, rubber chicken at a local hotel.

A Note from Editor-in-Pink, Melanie Bates:
I've never been more in love. Since I was a tiny tot I've been an organizational freak and used to line up all my patent leather Mary Janes with level precision so that I could hide crackers and Halloween treats in them. My shoes are still lined up, though I now keep the crackers in the cupboard and the Halloween candy has its own drawer, so when I saw this 2012 Declutter and Organize Calendar on mysimplerlife.com I nearly passed out with joy.

Do you ever wish you had more energy? Ha. I know, silly question. Who doesn’t wish they had more energy? Everyone I talk to, no matter if they are parents or single, working or living a life of leisure, ill or "healthy", they have the same goal: they want more energy.

You know those money issues you struggle with? The ones that keep you cash poor, that have you maxing out your credit card each month, that keep you from asking for that raise every year? Yeah, those are the ones. Well, here’s a little something I learned recently – those beliefs and issues surrounding money start WAY earlier than I ever would have imagined.

Something big is afoot. I’ve been saying it all year. The minute 2011 trumpeted its way in, I knew. I could just feel it. Change was in the air.
And I was not happy about it.
So I crossed my arms and shook my head and said, “Sorry Change, go knock on someone else's door, I’m not having it,” and closed the door on Change to continue with my comfortable -- and safe -- little routine. Meanwhile, Change pitched a tent out in my front yard and taunted me from a distance.
