  1. Has it been a month?!

    Wow, so okay has been about 2 weeks since I last blogged. Let me back track to document what occurred during that timeframe as I don't want to miss a beat.

    Started to back off the GS's and replaced them with a grapefruit/lemon/cayenne pepper/coconut oil concoction that was recommended here as a "fat burner" juice. I fell in love with the tart spicy sweet taste, but after the 3rd day I felt like my energy wasn't as "high" as on GS's. I welcomed the change of ...

  2. Releasing ....

    As of this past week I've noticed not only more amazing transformations in my physical appearance and my energy levels from being predominately raw for the past 2+ weeks. Yet, I've also noticed my self confidence has came out of NO WHERE! Now, keep in mind I was a chubby gal growing up, so shy that I would NEVER even raise my hand in school. Ever! I mean all the way thru high school. Though I leaned out a bit and became "in" with the "in crowd" I did NOT want or LIKE the ...

  3. Rejection of cooked food...

    So today I strayed during lunch time from my spinach salad & avocado. Instead my friend & I went for sushi. I had such a craving for it at the mention of the idea when first proposed that I thought it wouldn't be too much of a shock on my system. Wrong!

  4. Day 17 GS Feast'g

    Okay so I've finally..finally documented my story! It's only been 2 weeks really, but I keep noticing such amazing things happening to my body, my spirit, my mind, my energy, etc., that I felt if I didn't get them down somewhere it wouldn't be a benefit later on down the road. I really want other to be able to draw from my experience also.

    It's gotten to the point where my attempts to eat COOKED foods leave me with a terrible stomach ache. Yesterdays' attempt at tempeh with lemongrass ...

  5. How far I've come?

    Well to be honest I stumbled into an actual GS feast these past 2 weeks.

    I'll start at the beginning as I have yet to document how I have even gotten to this juncture.

    I've been battling weight issues my entire life.
    When I stepped on the scale to go into the USNavy back in 1994, I was horrified to see it reading 170#'s! For my frame of 5ft 5inches, definitely NOT healthy or attractive. Typical SAD diet, sprinkled with loads of alcohol, fast food and mass quantities ...
