    Okay, so I had a slip up on Sunday night which turned into a three day binge fest. I'm always amazed at people who can eat the "healthy, vegan" cooked food. Why bother?! When I fall off raw, I fall face first into food that is downright horrific for me. Sunday night I ate a package of tortellini with a container of alfredo sauce and an entire loaf of garlic bread. Washed it down with a bottle of wine. Yikes! The ridiculous thing is that I used to eat and drink that much all the ...

    I decided to post my Measurements from last night up on this blog. I wasn't going to because we fudged a little, just a little, you know like rounding up instead of down, in order to make my results a little bit better at the end.

    can you believe it?


    It wasn't an overwhelming raw success, but yet not a total loss either.
    Just kind of "eh?".

    Who wants to live live in perpetual
    "eh?" ?
