This is my Nineveh!


It may sound crazy, but this is my Nineveh.

I know what I have to do to be healthy and fail only because I allow my own self doubt, self defeatism and fear of failure to stand in my way.

God told Jonah to basically get up and get your butt to Nineveh. Arise and go.

I know what I have to do to be healthy, I have the tools and the resources to conquer the illness this shell I live in has been struggling with for years.

I'm committed to 'Arise and go'. I'm removing the negative from my life and embracing the positive and each day is a success because I've chosen it to be.

    And it was hard for me to write this. On February 1 I found I had broken out of wonderland and weighed in at 205.9 lbs. This was after getting down to 185 on the SAD diet. Wonderland is really important to me and I didn't think I'd admit to getting out of it, but I did anyway.

    So yay healing go!

    I have an amazing week coming up. Why? Pay day! The last pay period was pretty rough after an 80$ produce trip which didn't feed me for too long.

    Twenty dollars for four days of food was definitely an amazing help and encouragement.

    We're comin up on a stock up trip for things for the month of March which include raw coacoa powder, pecans, almond butter, cashews, pepitas, sunflower seeds in addition to my normal ruffage.

    Once we hit Thursday we're ...

    Today I feel like I am conquering a mountain.

    This health thug has been daunting and my head is filled with the negative self talk of you can't and won't be successful.

    I'm so determine to make it that I scrapped my professional development plan for the next three months and told my boss I can't do extras or take on additional projects. I'm spread thing too thin at work already and that stress carries over at home.

    So I added a huge line break in ...

    One week down

    So far it's been a week since I put my mind to it and committed to going back raw. I'm still just as afraid and anxious as I was in the beginning and have been exploring the Internet on my breaks at work and when traveling since I don't drive and came to an amazing realization that I hadn't before that knocked me on my mental but.

    I am now ten years post traumatic brain injury. I was diagnosed with epilepsy several years ago. It isn't uncommon after an event like that.

    Hello work week, why you have to be so full of temptation?

    This week has been interesting to start. I'm up to 60% raw from pre packaged crazy processed heck.

    My husband is a bit annoyed that we shop more frequently during the week on our backwards work schedule. (Tuesday through Saturday 1:45 pm to 10:45 pm). I know my produce that I buy should last that long but buying in smaller amounts means I'm less likely to over spend and less likely to waste food.

    This is hugely important since I am super resistant to the change ...
