  2. Loving Life, Living Raw

    The raw lifestyle is AMAZING. Each day i feel better about myself. My whole being, including my spirit and soul, is glowing. I feel much happier, much more in tune with others around me and not so irritable. The adventure of everyday is so exciting.

  4. Not much new today...

    Well, today is Day 2 in my "Back to Raw" journey.

    I still don't feel that great physically but emotionally I am happy to back eating living food.

I also haven't taken any sleeping pills (which I've been on for almost a year) and am sleeping better than ever and waking up completely refreshed. I'm not hungry all the time and feel full faster. The only craving I am having is for vegetarian hot dogs ...
