Ok. I've been sick & it culminated in me leaving work early yesterday and heading to the doctor. I'm sick! Really sick. Antibiotic and all. Agh. I hate it when I try everything and it still doesn't help. Honey, tea, peppermint oil in steaming water, blueberries, strawberries,apples. Lots of natural vitamin C! Still bacterial infections need antibiotics. But I tried. So. Here I am laying down. Trying to get better.
I started with pineapple this morning. But that has been all the raw my throat could take. It's been warm beverages & soup.
I am trying. At the doctors they said my blood pressures was up again. It has been up for over a year now. It's my job and weight gain. Since I can change the job, the weight has got to go.

I just spoke to my Hubby and he totally understands. I'm really trying. I'll have a large leafy green salad for dinner with carrots & an avocado. With berries for dessert. :)

It's amazing how health or rather the pursuit of it really motivates one.

(((hugs)))

    Also sound like you might be detoxing a little. I used to get terrible sinus infections. Now when I feel stuffy I drink Braggs apple cider vinager mixed with raw honey. I enjoy it hot or cold. The ACV in a natural anitbiotic. Drink a few times a day and it really helps. I haven't needed antibiotics since Ive been doing this. P.S. Don't keep the vinager in the refrigerator. Warning its a little addicting cuz it cuts the appetite also. Feel better.

    yes....sickness/illness/disease...that fear...it makes going raw seem like easy work to do. I'm going to go all raw January 1st. ...although not sure what to do with B12...but anyways, I'm sorry you are sick and that all your good bacteria is getting wiped out too. But it's for the best!

    PS. You're making me crave pineapple!!
