Hello, I used to be a very active member on this board, but for the life of me I can't remember my old login information. I lived a raw lifestyle for 3 years and was 100% raw for 1 1/2 years. I conquered a lot of illness going raw and had a lot of energy. But somehow I gradually fell away. I think when winter strives things begin to look hazy for me. I am a mom, wife, and busy business owner. My whole world was turned upside down when I lost a child in April. My parents lost their house and moved in with us and have health problems. Since then I have been eating the SADest diet I think I have ever eaten and my health is not good. My blood pressure is out of control. I have a adrenal tumor, enlarged thyroid, having migraines daily depressed, passing out and so on, and so on. My hubby suggested this weekend that I return to raw foods. And my response was why? He said "because you got to feeling so much better back then". And I was like, really? I know it is soooo true, but we don't have the grocery budget I used to have...so I am making excuses...blahhh....as I sit here drinking a 12 oz Pepsi Next in a can and taking 4 IBprofens after my large handful of cocktail antidepressents, beta blockers, etc....so I sit wondering what to do next? Do I wait for the greens to grow in my garden (which I haven't planted yet) or do I go to the grocery store and buy me some essentials to going raw....was thinking about maybe starting with some green smoothies. Hmmmm...
I'm 30, I have a 3 1/2 year old that thinks the world revolves around chicken nuggets, a supportive hubby that won't hardly eat anything green and every meal MUST include bread. So sitting here wondering what to do next...is running away an option?
