I little bit more about me:

I just turned 36 and have been married for 10 years to my dear husband and have 2 wonderful boys (ages 6 & 10).

I have been raw on and off for the last 4-5 years (i am losing count). I have had addiction issues in my past.

I am currently 159 lbs. and my goal is 130. I am 5'5" tall. I am heavier now than when I was full term pregnant with either one of my boys. But that will change!
I have been high raw for the past week or so. I was weighing about 164 before I started getting back to raw. So I've quit coffee over the past couple of weeks and cut way down on my happy hour drinks. I don't even crave coffee anymore. I do drink a little green or white tea daily though and it doesn't effect me like the coffee did. My husband told me if I stick to this he will fly me to NYC for a long weekend to eat at
Sarma's restaurant, "PURE Food and Wine"...I can do this right?!?!? right!
He says I am less angry on raw. ha!

So my reasons for doing this challenge:
  • elevated mood/emotional well being
  • more energy
  • weight loss
  • to be more spiritually connected

**Here's a pic of the lovely salad my hubby made me the other night. He rarely makes me din din, so this was such a treat. He is being so super supportive!
