  1. Day 6 and full of canker sours!

    My goodness it has been a while, we had some family from out of town… 6 kids!! It was a fun week, however not much free time to blog. Well today is day 6 of my challenge, I weighed myself and Wahoo I’m down 6 pounds! Wow no need for a colonic when you are eating raw!! Lol. It really cleans you out!

  2. Day 2

    Don't worry, I'm not going to give you all a detailed account of every single day of my raw journey but I'll tell you a little bit about today. Today was hard.

    HAPPY EASTER everyone!

    I know it's been awhile since I've posted. I'm still here "doing my thing" and trying my best to stay raw and keep active!

    It's been slow-n-steady, but I've managed to lose 12 lbs recently [happy dance]. :) I don't do my next "official" measurements until the end of the month, but I'm hoping for some decent numbers. My clothes are definitely fitting looser than before, so I know progress is being made. :)

  5. For those who are interested...

    Bubbie's pickles are raw except it says it contains regular salt instead of sea salt. But I bought them anyway. They're all natural and some regular salt is not going to kill me. I won't eat them everyday. Just wanted to add that the ingredients in Bubbie's pickles are as follows:

    cucumbers, Artesian well water, garlic, salt, dill, spices
