    Today I ate:

    8 oz Celery Juice
    1 fuji apple
    baby carrot sticks
    Salad with peppers, tomatoes and zucchini with Annie's honey mustard
    1 package of brown rice crackers (brown rice, safflower oil, salt)

    Tonight I pan to make a big 1/2 raw, 1/2 cooked gluten free, low-fat meal!
    This is going well and its only getting easier as the weather gets nicer.

    Aloha everyone! Whew - last night I didn't really eat 'dinner' I had a few strawberries that were just picked - they were juicy and sweet! but I just couldn't really bring myself to eat anything else. I was so stuffed from my celery and carrot binge yesterday! I'm finding a pattern here - I seem to want to eat more food around 3 or 4 pm... then a lot of times - I'm just not hungry for dinner.

    It's been a good week! This morning I was kind of craving a coffee to get my day jump started...but as I was getting ready in front of the full-length mirror I saw how great I looked! :) That was enough to make me decide to not have the coffee...Why would I want to place a burden of stress on my body, when it's doing such a great job of cleansing itself?!?

    This weekend is going to include...

    -sunshine!
    -shopping for fresh fruits and veggies... I need to stock ...
