Going Away for 2 Days-Day 44

Rate this Entry
Good Morning!
My hubby and I are going away for 2 days and I making raw foods to pack. I'm better armed this time around. Got dressings, veggies, smoothies, juices, nuts, seeds, crackers. Think I'll make it? My back is still acting up. Stayed on the heating pad yesterday and that helped so much. It will work itself out soon and stop. I'm having hair woes-My no poo experiment came to an end last night. My hair cheated and fell off the raw wagon. I did have to poo it. But, it didn't feel as bad as I thought it would. I think a hair cut is in order and some sls-free shampoo. Problem is, my hairdresser who lived in AL passed away last year and there is no one that I trust w/my hair. I may have to go back to AL to get it cut. My mom gets hers cut by a guy that is supposed to do a good job. She said "He gives a John Daniel haircut." That was my hairdressers name. I do think a haricut is in order. It is long-almost down to the middle of my back. It was up around my ears when I married 2 years ago. My hormones have been giving me fits and the sickness and the food change has brought a lot of stress! So, a haircut it is. I think I might try letting him cut it. I was letting a lady around here cut it and I just didn't like it. I usually let them trim and that's about it. I've also been looking into this oil pulling. Hmmm Kind of interesting. May try to to see if it wil take care of some things. Well, I'm off ladies to get my day started. Oh, Emma-Liza thanks for the dehydrator advice. Now I know why I need to turn the temp up for a little bit. Have a Great Raw Day!!!!!
I ate:
*strawberries, banana, avo, superfood smoothie

    Yes, I think you will succeed! You sound very prepared. I hope your back feels better soon. Chronic pain can really wear a person down. Good luck finding a good stylist. Maybe you could get someone in AL to do it, and if you like it, you could take a picture of it to show a local stylist what you want.

    You are doing Swell :) I'm impressed with your preperations. You are one Smart Rawbie ;). Your hair grows so fast. Mine takes 6 years to get as far as yours did in 1. Wow, I'm jealous ;)

    Good luck finding a new hairdresser and a new shampoo. I tried a "good" organic shampoo recently. It was awful. Fortunately, the store I bought it at accepts returns on all the products they sell! Maybe the new hairdresser can help advise you on a good natural product. Keep us posted! HAVE FUN ON YOUR TRIP!

    Have fun on your adventure! It sounds like you've also got a feast with you and that's great!! I know about hair issues... I don't let anyone cut my hair either.... as a result my hair is down my back to my buns... but then again - I dance the hula so - I guess it rather fits me.... The last time I let someone cut my hair they talked me into a perm and omg... I looked like a poodle with burnt hair on my head... accckkk... not cool.....

    I had to get a hair cut when I went poo-less in December... still poo-less today and loving it. But the dead ends REALLY show up when you are no poo!
