    Default Raw Foods/Green Smoothie Challenge-June 1st

    Hi everyone!

    My name is Stacy and I'd really like to try and go 100% raw again. I started in February and have lost 33lbs since. Around Easter, I started eating cooked SAD foods and during finals (I'm a college student) I was not prepared at all. I ate nothing but frozen entrees and candy. Along with this, I lost motivation. However, although the food taste good and it was a nice break from my repetitive raw meals I did not feel good. I was not thriving like I was when I first started.

    So, I'm ready to get down to it. I have been preparing myself mentally and recently began meditating. Although my summer is going to be super busy, for some reason I feel like I have peace in my life. It's weird. But anyway, I was thinking of doing a 30 day green smoothie challenge. I'd like to drink at least green smoothie a day. I'd love if others would join me! I plan on logging in everyday and posting the kind of smoothie I'll be consuming as well as the other raw foods I'll be eating through out the day.

    This is wonderful. Green smoothie has been so helpful to me to stay on raw food even though my choices weren't always perfect. I now do a lot of juicing on top of my green smoothie and i feel wonderful.

    Enjoy!
    Blessings and love

    Hi! You can follow my blog - its in my siggy - I have been doing a green smoothie challenge and I have posted lots of recipes. The first 30 day challenge I just added one green smoothie in place of a meal, but the following month (after this challenge is over) I am going to do a green foods takeover of my diet, so to speak, so for at least a week ALL that I will consume will be green smoothies. I don't want to shock my body though, so I thought starting slow with the green smoothie challenge would be the way to go. But honestly I love how I feel when eating raw food :)

    That is awesome that you're juicing.
    I tried doing a juice feast and I just cannot tolerate the taste. Juicing is too strong for me at the moment. When I found out about the smoothies I jumped for joy. I really would like to drink a green juice in its entirety without making any faces one day though. lol!
