    Ok - rounding the final lap of the 30 day challenge! Survived a long weekend loaded with temptations. I have dropped two more pounds and everyone at work has taken notice of my weight loss. I am still trying to avoid the scale, as sometimes I long for a quicker weight loss. I need to change the way I think about my weight and focus on how I feel.

    Wow. I’m really surprised I lost another pound this week. It’s not much but its something. I didn’t make the time for exercise last week and figured I wouldn’t lose anything or worse gain some weight.

    I had planned on a simple dinner but a friend called and wanted to go to dinner. I talked him into going to Café Gratitude which he loved. I had a raw zucchini lasagna and split a banana ice cream sundae. Everyone in the restaurant was so upbeat ...

    It occured to me today that our bodies are incredible creations. That I have survived this long eating the way I have is a miracle in itself. But, I realize that this is not what my Creator intended for me. I believe that when He brings us new information that can change lives, He gives us a responsibility to do something with that knowledge. In this case, I believe it has to do with myself.

    The before pic (right) was actually like a week into the 30 day challenge, but I had only lost 3 lbs and prolly looked pretty much the same. I just woke up in both of these pictures, but notice the difference in my skin (besides the ...

    just returned to the us after a long trip. was eating really healthy before, and then it started to fall apart on the road. was desperate to find anything that was vegetarian, and then raw on top of that was so hard! but now, i have a great kitchen and my blender and juicer back and access to great markets. just need to be disciplined and try to keep to a daily exercise routine. really want to feel healthy and lose about 15-20 pounds.
