FINALLY!!!

Soo glad to have finally decided to get my own raw food blog rolling. I've been debating starting something a little more permanent for years, those little scrap books filled with scribbles of what I'm eating for the day DON'T hold me accountable nor does it support me when I get a mean craving. I've been scouring this website for the past few days and by golly it seems like a pretty rad community.

I feel like I could write my whole life story and what got me to this point RIGHT THIS MINUTE! But, I'm going to spare whoever decides to read this.. plus! I have my first Raw Tomato soup to uncook.

In short, I want to live forever. In fact I want to transcend time.. I heard this diet may be exactly what I'm looking for. I tried it out a few years ago when I was about 20lbs over weight unhappy and in a new city with not much else to do. I got amazing results, but once I returned back home the beers were served and the party got started.

I'm at a time in my life where I need to find inner and outer peace, I've always found a huge change in my mood according to how I eat. So, this is the beginning of a 30 day Raw food challenge!!!

Weight: 146.6
Height: 5'9
Age: 23

Breakfast: 1 Cup Blueberries, 2 Bananas, 2 Cups of spinach, a dash of agave

Lunch: Raw tomato soup

Dinner: Beet, avocado, carrot, sunflower seed salad

Welcome!!!

There is NO other RAW Community like this one!!! The reason for it is that it reflects Alissa's standards as set out in her book. I am so grateful that she continues to support us because it makes being RAW easy and a whole lot of fun!!!!!

A bit of unsolicited advise... :). Don't be hard on yourself. Learn to listen to your body. Eat when you're hungry. Don't eat when you're not. Alissa's our "Mama Bird"! Believe me, you can trust her advise...she has never seen this lifestyle fail for anyone. You're off to a wonderful start!!!! Keep it up!!!

Hugs,
Nee

BTW...I wanna live forever too!!! ;D
