  1. Day 1- MC/Juice feast

    I'm back online after some time off here. I am excited to start my detox juice feast over the next 10 days. This will be my start to get back to raw foods. Today is my first day, just drank some lovely salt water.. and I will be doing somewhat of a Master Cleanse (minus the cayenne), but I plan to juice feast as well. I am hoping to lose weight for a family trip coming up at the end of this month. It involves bathing suits.. you get the picture.. and that is in 2 weeks, so I better get crackin! ...

  2. Life is a River sometimes

    I know it seems like I have dropped out of this months raw challenge and off the wagon in general, as I have stopped blogging.
    We have been dealing with a nightmare- a parents worst nightmare- the loss of a child. Not my child, but my best friend's. She recently gave birth after a long and tiresome labor to a big beautiful 10 lb boy. Unfortunately, he was born dead- no breathing, no heartbeat.

  4. Nursey girl had a rash :(

    I did a SWF this morning, and I started to drink the Master cleanse lemonade, but then, I had to stop because it was affecting my 2 year old nursling. I felt SO bad for my sweet nursey-girl because obviously it affected her and she got a red rashed bottom from her poop touching her skin in her diaper. The cayenne pepper was probably burning her.

    So no master cleanse because I'm still nursing. Well DUH! I knew this, and I had heard that fasts and MC's can dump toxins into the ...

  5. Allergic response?

    Well now I know why I NEED to continue to eat a raw foods lifestyle. After my slip up yesterday- twice (with the pancakes) I FELT SO SICK last night and this morning. My stomach is turning and I feel nauseous.. I had major gas and gas pains, and I am burping up nasty burps. Lovely, I know.

    I think that after eating so clean, my stomach is not used to the rif raf I threw in there. Its either that, or maybe I really am allergic to wheat and I never noticed it.
