    I have totally fallen off. I am eating cooked foods again and feel terrible. I have got to start the challenge over and be committed. Every bad thing I was feeling that started to go away is back. I think I have gained 3 pounds. What does it take for me to get the hint here?

    So.... I have got to do 100%. Just really having a hard time. I really don't understand why! I love raw food and feel so great when I am eating, losing weight and feeling calm, cool, collected.

    I had my MOPS meeting today and was all prepared! I had an apple dipped in almond butter before I left and had a beautiful tray of veggies prepared. It was raining when I got to church so i put Gabriella's backpack on, picked her up on one side and grabbed my bag and veggie tray in the other and made a dash for the door. Almost there...and I slipped and fell...all of my weight onto my left knee!! Didn't drop Gabriella, but the veggies didn't fare so well. All over the wet dirty concrete...sigh. ...

    WOW!
    Day 12 already?!?!?! Almost 2 full weeks?
    It just doesn't seem possible - for me that is.......I'm used to starting the "newest diet"......only to fail a couple of days into it - giving into my cravings from feeling deprived... .....but, NOT this time!

    It's really weird, but this is all coming soooo naturally to me - like I've been doing it forever!

    Our halau went to support our hula sister... she was competing and she did an AMAZING JOB -- we are all SO VERY PROUD OF HER....

    the dancers ranged in abilities and styles of course. But no one enters ...
