    what what what????

    I got on the scale this morning and I only lost 1.5 lbs. this week? How is that? I honestly thought I had done better this week then I had last week and last week I lost 6.5 lbs. Hmmmmm, this confuses the hell out of me!

    Alright, I've already decided in the begining of this journey that I wasn't going to beat myself up over these things because it's all towards greater health so the weight shouldn't be the number one priority. The weight will ...

    Food is amazing, sad or raw! It can fill your body, heal your body, and deplete your body the list goes on and on. Food, glorious food! Isn’t it amazing what you put in your body determines so many things, not just your weight! What you eat and your spirituality are so intertwined it leads me question where have I been for the past 28 years? And how about your emotions? Wow! Just eat RAW for a few days and any emotion you have been ‘pushing down’ will defiantly show its self! What do you do with ...

    Ok, it's time to stop messing around. I now can see that fruit is wildly wonderful, but for ME I'd better be careful about the sugary ones and not go overboard or I'll be hungry a whole lot more. Today I added some avocado in and I am satiated much longer. I think I am back on track...funny saying that only 5 days in!

    My GAStro issues have also settled down. Wonder if it was mixing the nuts with veggies, cuz I ran out of the mock ranch dressing...LOL I guess I'll find out ...

    Yesterday I bought some vegetable protein powders. I brought Nutriva Hemp protein and Alive Ultra Shake (rice and pea protein). I figured this was better than using the whey protein powder that I still have on the shelf. I was down another 1/2 pound this morning to 174. My waist was 37.125.
