  1. Wednesday - and the wait is on

    Yesterday's meeting with the recruiter went very well. There is an opening for a temp position for a data entry clerk that is just down the street from me. I went and was drug tested and fingerprinted so they can run their backround check. Now just waiting to hear all that has cleared. I figure a temp job is better than no job at all, the unemployment rate in my area is 18%

    Today my smoothie of the day was:
    frozen strawberry, banana, young coconut, maca. It actually ...

  2. My husband is doing raw with me

    My husband is doing raw. Lionel is his name and he so committed. He is doing it for me, but I think he loves the results of how well you feel. My brother is the one who introduced us to raw. He has had Lupus for 15 years and has done rawsome as long as he stayed raw. He has put himself on hospice, he feels he is tired and wants to be at the end. So, he is now forced to fast and is getting better and stronger everday. He came to hospice and they now want to send him home. They say he is strong enough ...

  3. Recipe Book in the works...

    I have decided to create a recipe book!
    I have a ton of ideas for recipes and I already have a bunch to put in there. I'm very excited!
    There might be some other things I tap into in the book, but I'm not sure yet.

    On Monday, my patient Patrick, who is a romantic old French man, couldn't stop complimenting me! He couldn't believe how great I looked! And yesterday, another patient, a woman, said I looked very different but she didn't know how. I told her I had lost ...

  4. Trasitioning to the Next Cleanse

    by on 04-15-2009 at 11:33 AM (Jenifae's Raw Journey)
    So, after coming off the Green Smoothie Fruit Cleanse/Fast I'm going to move into the next Cleanse but, not the Mono Fruit. I feel I need Veggies right now. So, I am going to do the Veggies and Fruit, only now. I really learned from lasts nights introduction to Fat into my body that this triggers my Yeast back. I wonder if I can do a full 7 - 10 days without Fat if it will be gone and not return after the reintroduction to Fat. Hopefully, we'll find out. Because, that's my Goal! I will allow myself ...

  5. Further Observations - after adding fat back in:

    by on 04-15-2009 at 11:24 AM (Jenifae's Raw Journey)
    Well, after 6 days with Virtually no fat last night I ate 1 1/2 cups of Crusty Cauliflower which has alot of nuts in it.

    So, this morning:

    * I wake up to my Vaginal Yeast Discharge. It was virtually gone. (I like that word today) :)

    * I feel full. I'm not hungry even this morning.

    * My energy is more sluggish but, not gone.

    * I slept harder.

    So, I really do feel that Fat is more the culprit to my yeast problem
