    As always, I couldn't find it in my mailbox this morning. I haven't had anything prepared since I started this journey and I am not sure I want to, until I see this dessert of yours on your blog this morning.

    Friends don't let other friends go without. Hint, Hint.

    I would think the crust is made out of nuts and some dates and the filling is probably some apples/sauce and some dates and almonds maybe? Surprise me:)!!

    Your food looks so scrumptoulicious!

    That's so great you are still doing 3 meals a day! I made a Broccoli salad the other day and it's good too. Similar to your cabbage/waldorf.

    wow - I bet your yard looks great! No wonder you're sore, that was a ton of work.

    Way to go on the 3 meals a day. That's a huge accomplishment!!! I bet a couple weeks ago, you wouldn't have thought you could do that. Good for you - I hope it's inspiring for you and makes you confient in yourself :)

    Those pics really show the proof of the pudding don't they? Again, you are such an inspiration to me and I am hoping that soon I will be done with all my SAD reservations and let it go finally and just have my goal be RAW for LIFE!

    Thanks for sharing.

    WF, you caught me off guard there, thanks, I needed that laugh.

    It is impossible to eat one bite. I've proved that over and over.

    Great experience to share. I need to hear that I can always have my misery back with just one bite. I checked my mailbox today and there was no cheesy kale in there.

    Keep up the good work, I'm very excited to see the photos, and even more than the pictures, I'm sure that you'll be feeling amazing.

    I can't wait either. I really want to wear that white cotton jacket again this summer. I haven't worn it or the yellow shirt since 2005.

    wow - the difference is amazing.
    I can't wait to see the photos this time!

    Thank you, Wonderful. (It's hard to repeat the f**l part ;) LOL ) I'm sure it's the raw goodies that are keeping me from releasing weight, but they also keep me raw. I'm okay with the trade-off, for now. :)

    Thank you, Jennifer. Vibrant! That's the word I'm looking for. I feel a vibration that wasn't there before. It has amped up in the past few days.

    The new picture was taken yesterday. The other picture was 6 months old. I've been raw for 10 months. All the weight I've released was done in the first 4 months. My weight is 185 lbs in both pictures. I was going to say my weight was the same 185lbs, but that would be wrong. It isn't the same.

    My one year anniversary is coming up at the end of May. I'm saving some Before pictures to post for the occasion.

    There is more than one factor that helped me stay raw when with others. All equally important. My independent streak, the need to be different that comes with being an Aquarius. ;) Also it is my vanity and ego. I wanted to prove to others that I could do it. And I did not want to feel the disapproval of those who supported me, or the satisfaction of those who don't support me. I have something to prove, to myself and everyone else in my life.

    When I first saw your new picture, I thought; "She's lost weight and looks so vibrant! You are proof of how staying raw changes us from the inside out. You are diffently showing me the positive results to be strong and stay raw.

    You look alot different. More Vibrant, Thin, and a Beauty that is truely RAW!

    It's good to hear how your feeling. I want to have more Energy, Enthusiasm, and especially Patience. I need to get that internal strength to not slip when out with others.

    What helped you make that decision to not allow the presence of others influence your food selection?

    Thanks for being you :)
