    Wow, I felt so great this week, super energy, lots of exercise and a good job of getting my smoothies in, a few recipes from Alissa's book, hanging around on the web site alot.

    Last Monday I went to Whole Foods and stocked up on everything, also ordered a bunch of items from Alissa. This is the thing for me, must be prepared!

    this morning i hiked up bill botts hill (where all the diesel horses are in culver city, oil pumps), about an hour.
    i decided ive gotta try to walk every day, a pretty big deal for me as i will have days where i am super active and then the next day i will just loaf around. eventually it adds up to more loafing than activity.
    also someone recommended dandelion tea and lemon water, and i have to say, it makes perfect sense. i was doing the lemon water thing for awhile and it definitely ...

    This week was a rough week, mainly due to my poor eating…which made me tired…and not have enough energy to do yoga…which made my joints tight for running…and I was just in a bad mood because of all this. This weekend, I'm doing my scheduled long run, as well as plenty of yoga and raw foods to get back on track towards excellent health!

    No drinks this weekend…no more than one cooked meal between now and next Friday--- and I'm going to schedule a hair appointment for next Saturday ...

    I do not like green drinks. Like, I would rather go to the dentist than drink one (OK, not really, but just to show the intensity with which I despise them) I would rather gag down a hundred green supplements than drink a spinach/kale/insert green here smoothie/drink any day. Even the powders make me want to yack. Eating greens? No problem. I love them. Drinking them. No. Nope. Not gonna do it. Blech.
