  1. Day 10 - starting my blog for accountability

    Days 1-3 were full of cravings but easy because I was excited & motivated.

    Days 4-6 I felt great and it was easy.

    Day 7 I found myself out unexpectedly with a sleeping baby in the backseat and HUNGRY - cooked food slip up in a big way. I was amazed at how I really reacted to the cooked food like an addiction. I have heard people talk about cooked food as an addiction, but I didn't get it until then. The food didn't taste good and I felt compelled to eat it ...

  2. Life is a River sometimes

    I know it seems like I have dropped out of this months raw challenge and off the wagon in general, as I have stopped blogging.
    We have been dealing with a nightmare- a parents worst nightmare- the loss of a child. Not my child, but my best friend's. She recently gave birth after a long and tiresome labor to a big beautiful 10 lb boy. Unfortunately, he was born dead- no breathing, no heartbeat. They tranfered him to the big hospital (it was a birth center birth) and he was kept on life ...

    by on 06-25-2008 at 11:30 AM (Jenifae's Raw Journey)
    Every Weekend I seem to fall into SAD and I'm sad about this. I am still not feeling well. I always feel so good when RAW and yet I keep hurting myself and making myself feel yucky and also, I throw my body off and go into an emotional/mental tail-spin.
    I don't know what my bottom is with this yet. But, I'd like to hit and be 100% committed with no more relapses. I'm tired of feeling Gross, Emotional, and Unstable. I'm also tired of the scale moving up and down.
    I need HELP! ...

  5. And Away We Go...

    For me the best family is the one I create for myself by surrounding myself with nice friends who have similar interests. I consider myself blessed to have found this site and these raw friends.

    I gained 7 lbs while DB was here. Not as much as I had feared.

    I'm going to a farmer's market this evening to see what I can find. Meanwhile, I have this idea. I want to make a marinara sauce, give it more substance with some ground walnuts, and then stuff it in a bell ...
