Hi!

I know I'm a few days late, but I'd love to jump on the exercise wagon, too.

My goals for this month:

Yoga 3x a week
Taekwondo 3x a week

Lunges, squats, stretching at home.

Thanks for your post. It is always amazing to me how emotional weight loss can be. It's like we're losing baggage along with fat!

I lost about 35 lbs just under 2 years ago and no one noticed...

Hi there,

I'm on Day 3 and feel great. I laughed at the post with the "3 AM potty call" because mine was EXACTLY at the same time. And then again at 5 AM. :)

No complaints so far.

I haven't posted or blogged in a long time, but have been partially raw for over a year now. February 2007 was the start for me. I've had great months and TERRIBLE months and everything in between....

If you have a ball, place it between your knees and squeeze. My chiropractor adjusts me (I had PSD after baby #2) this way w/ his hands, but before I went to a chiro, I emailed a friend from out of...

I got a Vitamix on eBay and it's amazing. I use it mostly for green smoothies, but I have used it for raw ice cream (made w/ very ripe fruit and ice, period...) So good. It really has been a good...

Have you tried raw facial products? Coconut oil is supposed to work wonders.

I do notice that my skin looks better when I eat raw and drink lots of water. Good sleep helps too.

I would do a...

could you buy a mini-fridge and keep it in your bedroom? Sounds a bit unreasonable for them not to leave you any room at all, but maybe this would work. You can get small box-sized ones for around...

I like to eat on a sort of schedule - I'm still pretty new and have not succeeded in 100% raw for more than 11 days - but for me, I find that if I let myself get famished, I make worse choices than I...

in Victoria Boutenko's book Green for Life, she uses this as a test to see if stomach acid is low. Apparently, your poo shouldn't change color if your acid is at the right level. Her answer to this...

Do you sleep on your right side? It's possible that you're detoxing sweat out during your sleep and if you sleep with your cheek on your hand, that could be the cause...

Acne is such a...

Wow, I never even thought of that... I usually cut them into circles - are you referring to how they are picked/cut from the stem?

Interesting...

Seriously, it looks like mother in before pics, daughter in after pics.

Way to go - you look so healthy and glowing.

You motivated me, that's for sure. Congratulations!!

Maybe just take a personal day? Sounds like your boss just really likes cake and ice cream and wants an excuse to indulge... :)

Sorry you have such a stressful work environment.

Hope you...

From what I read, Gordonii Plus is the real thing. I haven't heard anything about side effects and the ingredients are all natural... I guess we'll see.

Thanks!

Hi,

My sister has decided to start taking Hoodia Gordonii Plus.

I have done some research on it and it seems pretty safe and effective as an appetite suppressant.

One bit of advice, too - if your Dad is concerned about an eating disorder, make sure that you're EATING lots of raw food when it is available - for example, if they have a meal w/ meat, potatoes and...

Ok, I'm surprised no one made a joke about not eating gorillas b/c they're endangered... :) Sorry!!! ha ha
