NOTE: This is not my "report" as requested by a few of you. Rather, this is just my "hoot and holler excited" post and I'll link to my Results Report (potentially with Photos if I have time!) which will be on Dauntless Diva (http://www.dauntlessdiva.com), since this was part of my 1,001 Days project there.

I did it! I did 90 days of Raw and Living Foods, following the gentle guidelines in Alissa Cohen's marvelous LIVING ON LIVE FOOD book and learning along the way.

I feel FANTASTIC overall, my immune system is rigorous and sturdy as it's ever been, and I'm 10 lbs lighter than when I started (weight-loss was NOT my primary motivation so this was just a fun little perk). It feels FUN to be slipping back into my skinny jeans, and yet to be so full of energy that I can hardly sleep anymore and pretty much feel like I'm High-on-Life all the time. ;)

So MANY incredible occurrences have filled the last 90 days... I will strive to recount them diligently in my official update. But for now, back to Painting/Renovating my house I go...!

I think that's TOTALLY AMAZING!!! Can't wait for the day I can write the same thing.

I'd love to hear more deets about what you ate, how you felt, what you did spiritually. That is an amazing accomplishment, congratulations!

Bwahahahaa!!! Only if you were striving for a water fast, otherwise I don't think tea counts. ;)

My next 90-days will be an even MORE intentional journey... tuning in to my Body more and more, learning to "Listen" to all of Her messages and giving Her what she wants even when my Brain conflicts...

So exciting - LIFE is SO exciting!!!

I LOVE RAW!

:D
