  1. 17th GLORIOUS DAY OF RAW!

    I have made it 17 days in the raw!
    Thanks to God, to you guys and to my determination to make it. I have to say it has not been with out it's struggles and I face the stuggles still on a day to day basis. I am still a compulsive eater, I am still a food addict. I still have all the underlying problems I had when I began. The only difference is that today I feel "light". I feel a sense of health which I have not felt in I don't know how long. I was feeling so poorly that ALL I ...

  5. Fresh Produce

    Today I went to the Farmer’s Market for the first time this year! Its 80 degrees and lovely out. For those of you lucky people who live in warm weather year round the farmer’s market in the north just opened. When I first started juicing in 2004, I lived in FL and took for granted the fresh local produce for sale year round and never being forced to pay grocery store prices. But today I was blessed to have the luxury of bringing home 14 large pineapples (my fave for only $1.49 each) in addition ...
