How rough?


As I write, tears are streaming down my cheeks. In this picture I felt awesome, the best I'd felt in years, scratch that...in decades. Losing 105 lbs I weighed 120. I weep because I now weigh 40 pounds more and I feel like crap! I know what I need to do, but it's so hard. Intense carb cravings possess my body and I grab for the nearest bread (or chips, cookies...)and scarf them down. It's the good stuff like Eziekiel Sprouted Grain Bread or flax chips... but you can eat too much of the good stuff too! I'm living proof.

Sometimes, I think if I could just isolate myself for a few days and have nothing in the house but good raw food that I could do it. In 2-3 days the cravings will be gone. So, I'm hoping looking at this picture will motivate me to stick to my goal, which is to eat only healthy 95% raw food. Initially, I need to go 100% raw for 2 weeks. That's what I'm working on now, so far, so good today I've had:

Berries and avocado smoothie w/Spirulina & Chlorella
1 large Fuji apple
1 quart of pure water

Tomorrow I'll put up my now picture and I know that I'll be writing about how excited I am to have made it through 1 day 100% raw!

Peace,
Rawnessa
