  1. I Feel Good?

    So this is pretty weird. I felt terrible yesterday....really headachy with no energy. I knew it was detox. Today I woke up with a mild headache which has continued on and off throughout the day...but I feel good....I mean good...and the only diffeence in my eating has been avocado, which I craved yesterday and ate today. I know avocado can sometimes slow detox symptoms, but this seems so different. I am thinking about this whole go-round differently, too. I want to figure out how to make high raw ...

  2. Detox Your Life

  3. Day 4

I'm really excited about getting a Level 1 certification this summer. Not positive it's going to happen but thinking about it keeps my spirits up. This whole raw food way of life is really exciting! I don't think anyone who ...

  4. Mentally rough day

    Today my dear friends, was a weird day - a lot of energy, no physical detox symptoms but something was wrong. I felt like the cookie monster from sesame street. all I wanted to do today was eat, eat and eat and if I had allowed that to myself (which I didn't) it would have been pizza, a sandwich or a burger (and I've been vegan before raw).

    Maybe I'm not eating enough (though I'm never hungry) or I might not be balancing my meals correctly, it might also be the fact that I kind of ...

  5. Tossing and Turning (and I don't mean salad)

    Last night was rough! I have so much on my mind - especially after seeing the surgeon. Big surprise - surgeons want to cut. She tried to apply some pressure to do a mastectomy, used a few scare tactics, which were not completely true, back-pedaled a few times, and told me an outright lie. I stayed pleasant, but let her know that I've done my homework, and would appreciate the facts, please. It was difficult, but I didn't leave crying this time. I feel more sure about what I need to do. Look ...
