Journey to Better Health

Time for Rhazula to Get Serious

Rate this Entry
I'm currently transitioning back to raw...but I'm going to step it up a notch.

I promised myself that on June 8th 2010, I will go high raw. SAD has made a mess of my body. My ankles are swollen, and I've gained over 100 lbs in the past year.

I need to get serious about being healthy. I don't want to end up deceased like my grandmother (passed away at age 62 nearly 10 years ago due to obesity-related complications).

I'm certified as a Raw Vegan chef, I better walk the walk and start eating raw again. I felt so much better eating fresh tasty foods, real food not processed junk SAD food.

Being raw in an unsupportive household will be a big challenge for me. My housemates are SAD and can't understand why I'm not eating meat.

They try to get me to eat animal flesh and get annoyed when I say no.

Cooked food is sooooo addicting, it won't be easy for me going high raw...but I will stick to it. I have 120 lbs to release...and I will achieve my goal.

    I have been on and off raw but haven't stuck with it. When I am raw, I feel sooo good, everything seems so much brighter and I feel 10x better.
    I am doing the June Challenge so when your housemates pressure you, know that we are out here walking the same walk with you. Good Luck!
