    Yup! I've got it. I've finally figured out the source of my ED. I've been battling an ED since I was at least 5 and now I'm 33.

    It's not my alcoholic disappearing wife beating father. It's not my caregivers that abused me. It's not my creep of a stepfather who left us to live with a 20 year old girl when I was 15.

    It's my mom. It's the freaking gaping hole she leaves in my chest EVERY TIME I speak to her. It's the uneasiness I feel at the very mention of her name. ...

    Almost there.........

    Today I made 2 batches of flax crackers to share with my work and yoga peeps! I have nibbled them a little and they are super yummy. Now I just throw stuff into the food processor & walah! I sprinkle sea salt on them after I spread them out & on 2 of the sheet of crackers - I also sprinkled nutritional yeast just to see how they were - um....YUM!

    I weighed myself today and I have lost 27 pds. That is insane. I still feel really good. Not hungry! My parents are really concerned but thats not new. My boyfriend loves that my body is transforming. My son who is 9 is learning about healthy foods. Honestly I did not say anything to him he just decided that it was good to eat raw foods. Yeah! I am biking daily and really enjoying time alone. I love to breathe in fresh Air. Is anyone from the Milwaukee Area?

    Sort of a gut-check.

    We were at publix today picking up some apples to juice. (started part II of the liver cleanse today) And I just can't help but look into the carts. Most have ZERO fresh fruits and veggies, but instead are filled ...
