  1. Day 11 (Day 2 of juice fast)

    Hello Day 11!!!

    My spirits are much higher these days. I'm on day 11 of raw and day 2 of juice fasting. I'm feeling great! I haven't thought about my weight, I've just been focusing on healing and positive thoughts.

    Before all this, I would have described myself as the most negative grumpy person around. I had a hatred on for humanity and was generally resigned to the fact that this world sucked. All that has certainly changed. Of course I can't attribute it to being ...

  2. Day 10 (focused)

    Hi everyone. Sorry for yesterday's little "breakdown". I didn't revert to eating SAD or anything so still ten days of 100% raw. I'm feeling a lot more focused today and positive. I have been making strides in other areas of my life regarding yoga, spirituality, exercise, etc. and all these sucessess are coming together and creating a new positive me!

    So today is Day 1 of my Juice fast. I'm going to go for however long I can maintain it. Hopefully until the end of the month ...

  3. Day 9 (depression)

    Well here's day 9.

    I haven't weighed myself as per my determination not to look at the scale. But I still feel like I haven't lost any weight. Feeling a bit down and frustrated. I really don't want weight to be the all encompasing aspect of Raw for me. I want to focus on all the other positive aspects of Raw and the other things it is attracting into my life. But my weight has been such a huge issue for so long that it's hard to detach myself from that aspect.

    I know ...

  4. Day 8 (time to fast?)

    So I've made it past my first week and have come to several conclusions.
    1) I'm losing no weight - very much likely due to all the "treats" I'm eating.
    2) My energy and positive attitude have gone way up.
    3) I'm not going to weigh myself anymore. I've read that it's negative to weight yourself every day and I seem to have become fixated on that. I'm going to remove the scale from my life and just be happy with who I am and the path I am on.

    So, I think ...

  5. Day 7 (Raw Energy - oh my!)

    So today I wake up with a bang. Actually, the past few days I've noticed my energy levels ramping up. In fact it's more than just "energy levels". Something else, almost intangible. Just a stronger sense of well being, a lot more postivite thoughts and feelings about everything in general, etc. All of it combines I guess. I feel like I'm turning into a new person not only in the physical sense but spiritually and emotionaly as well. Even despite the fact that I've barely lost any weight ...
