    I did not make the salad at the restautant and ended up having a cooked mushroom thing. However, I DID NOT order a cake for dessert as I usually would. This horrified my friends and they tried to order a brownie for me, even though I had told them about the diet. They did not like this new me, this cake-less me, as I was kinda the one who was known for loving cakes.

    It felt a bit like when I gave up smoking, I was not part of the club anymore, the cake-eating club. Whereas before, ...

    Well here I am writing about my journey to a new me. I have been doing research since 2004 on fitness, food and the relationship between them both. I found out along time ago that mothers can look HOT with strenth training, and other fitness ( like yoga, etc.....) I always enjoyed yoga. I took a class that was offered iit to us by my massage therapy school back in 2001.
    I wish I found out about this way of life back then. Better late then never, right? Right. I just answered my own ...

    Let me just start off by saying how glad I am that it is Saturday today. I love the weekend! I am detoxing still and have been sleeping a lot, drinking a lot of water and just hoping that it all ends soon so I can feel a little better. Right now my head sort of feels like it is buzzing because if the detox. You know how you feel when you get "sick" and you are all congested and achy like. That's exactly the feeling in my head right now.

    I have to be honest about something ...

    Today was a 1/2 raw, 1/2 cooked food day. I've fallen off the wagon, yet today is still day 13 for me... moving forward... I can feel a huge difference when I am 100% raw and when I'm partially raw/cooked vegan like today. I had a delicious dinner at Genghis Grill - some tofu, some udo noodles, lots of veggies and a spicy peanut curry sauce. But now my stomach feels heavy and bloated. This morning I had my organic honey nut o's again and my nose was running immediately after. So, my science ...
