I feel GOOD!!!
WOW!! Words cannot explain just how good I feel! As I
reflect, I have to reference a previous blog I wrote in which I set several
goals for myself. Please see below with updates:
1.
Vegan-am
2.
Majority raw
foods-somewhat- RAW VEGAN NOW!!!!
3.
No processed foods- pretty close
4.
No GMO's-working on- pretty close
5.
Make all food- pretty close
6.
Garden-future
7.
Juice Fast – done and will do again
8.
Cookbook/book-future- working on
These above goals
basically list what I have accomplished and what I wanted to work on. So let me
update you……I am now a raw vegan!! That means that I do not eat foods that are
cooked above 105 degrees to keep the enzymes intact insuring my body is receiving
all of the enzymes and nutrients. I have been reading this book called Living on Live Food by
Allisa Cohen and I’m telling you this book has made me completely change my
thinking as far as food is concerned. Not only that, I cannot express enough
how GOOD I FEEL!!!! Let me list some things that have changed for me:
·
Every morning Mon-Fri
I wake up at 5:30am and workout with my husband. I am not tired, I’m actually
excited to get up and get it done.
·
I look forward to the
day, I no longer press snooze on my alarm clock but am up and wide awake.
·
I appreciate nature, I
notice the green of trees, I hear the birds, I desire to be outside
·
I need less sleep.
·
I am in a better mood
overall.
·
I value my
relationship with God more and really appreciate Him for who He is and just His
overall awesomeness.
·
I really appreciate my
husband and my love for him has grown. I have less attitudes and feel a
stronger sense of admiration and respect for him.
·
MEN IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE LOOK AWAY FOR THE NEXT
TWO BULLETS!!!-
·
MY CYCLE IS SOOOOOO LIGHT AND ONLY LAST MAYBE 3 DAYS. I MEAN
LIGHT TO THE POINT THAT I DON’T EVEN HAVE TO WEAR ANYTHING TO PROTECT MYSELF
MOST TIMES. I have had the same bag of
“materials” for months!! For this reason alone, I won’t go back LOL!
·
I went from a 40G when I first
started on my health journey years ago to a 34(I leave the cup size out for
respect of my husband) but I can get PRETTY bra colors now not just nude and
black which are the only color options for well-endowed women.
·
I’ve gone down two dress sizes
·
I actually LIKE the
way I look in bathing suits.
I can go on and on but
I think you get the idea. Do I crave cooked food? Yes. I actually had a few
tortilla chips with some guacamole and made some popcorn the other day so let’s
say I’m 99.9% raw. But even in and through those cravings, I feel too good to
turn back. I am also finding new and fun things to cook. I am learning more
about myself and life and am just plan happy!
Just wanted to share
the good news with you all!!
