    I know what you mean about the water. I like to drink it 30 minutes before or 3 hours after a meal. To fit 2 quarts into the day I have to drink a pint, 4 times a day. Sometimes I forget that last pint. I do think I feel better when I drink it all.

    Keep up the good work!

    Thank goodness the snow is finally starting to melt! :)

    Celery has lots of water, fruits and veggies contain it naturally so if you are eating those you are still giving your body water.

    You are doing really great. Keep up the great work.

    Just take the day as it comes. Stay in the present, not in the future. Learn, share and ask questions. Be willing to be confused, instead of thinking you have to be perfect. Have a great day!

    You are doing great and you have a plan - that is a great way to succeed! Get as much rest as you can and lots of good clean water also helps to flush toxins away

    You are taking a step in the right direction! My family never really joins me on anything that I do that is healthy either (eating, working out, etc) but I figure I will do it for myself and what rubs off on them is just fine too. I don't think my family will ever be 100% vegan or raw but they have added more fruits and veggies in their diets so I feel good about that.

    I look forward to reading your blogs, sharing what I can and learning a long the way too.

    Welcome!

    welcome - it's great to have you with us! I'm also from Seattle :)
    Sounds like you have a great attitude and lots of motivation. You'll be amazed at how much better you start feeling after only a few days. Once people start seeing the positive changes, they won't question you as much.
    Looking forward to hearing more about you! Happy holidays :)
