So much has happened that I don't know where to start. So here goes:

First my month was up and on March 1st I weighed myself after not doing so for a whole month. And I was down 15 pounds for the month of February. So now, all totalled I have lost 41 pounds since starting my raw journey on Jan 1st. Yay! Very excited about that.

On Sunday I also learned something else. I am pregnant! I had a feeling that I might be and the test confirmed it. So the baby is due in November and I am ending my fast. Hubby is going to pick up some prunes for me to soak tonight so that I can eat them tomorrow. I had really wanted to make it to 60 days on the fast, but now that I know that I am pregnant I need to stop. I ended up exceeding my expectations and fasted for 7 weeks. I am very proud of that and very excited to have done it. It was so amazing.

I am really hoping that I do not have bad morning sickness. I did last time to the point where raw food made me sick. If that happens I will resort to juice. I WILL NOT eat SAD. I just can't do it and it will be better for me and the baby if I am drinking juice as oppossed to eating SAD. I'm going to take it one day at a time.

And the last piece of news is that all of our well laid plans with hubby's job are up in the air again. It is so frustrating. It looked like we were definately going to Michigan and now I don't know. The boss in Michigan is not sure if he will have an opening for hubby after all. At least not at the pay grade that hubby is suppossed to have. So, again, we are uncertain of what will happen. I am so tired of the uncertainty. We really need to know where we are going and get settled down.

So that is my news.

    Congratulations on all fronts! That is fantastic! Is this your first raw pregnancy? I recently read an interesting story about Paul Nison's wife's pregnancy. It almost made me wish it wasn't too late for me to get pregnant again. ;) It was an email so I can't link it here, but I can forward it to you. At least I think I can. You might have to shoot me an email first then I can reply and paste it in.

    Best Wishes to you for a happy delivery. :)

    Thanks!

    Yes, this will be my first all raw pregnancy. I had spells of rawness with my last one but never for any length of time. Also will be my first raw conception! Very exciting!
