I was able to do my juice fast all day and had whole wheat orzo and salmon for dinner. No soda, no sweets. It was a really really good day.
I had carrot juice with green powder and chlorophyll. I also had a huge mango and banana smoothie for lunch.
My boss doesn’t believe I’m going to make it. He knows I’m a sugar addict. I’ll make it, I’m determined.
Well, I just wasn’t ready in October. Trying to be raw, living with a friend of mine while my brand new apt was being finished, letting go of an ex-boyfriend…I just couldn’t focus on going back to RAW FOOD Living! I was weak…the flesh is so weak I tell ya!!!
Anyway, armed with a great new living space (as of Mid-November), a clearer mind, more balanced finance, plenty of resources and research, and determination…I’m ready.
I started today and was 90% raw. Yay. The only non-raw I had was some smoked salmon on my dinner salad and some dried mango from Whole Foods. I feel really really good. I’m on a modified fast from sun up to sundown. Juices basically. I had a Mo-Beta Odwalla and a Mango Banana Smoothie today. I also had Fasting tea from Blue Nile (Great place to know if you’re living holisticly in Wash DC). I had a salad and dried mango for dessert when I got home from the Gym. I did 30 min on the eliptical. Didn’t feel worn out or drained after. I got plenty of water all day. That is key when transitioning and detoxing.
When I got home I took some photos. At the gym, the scale read 198.3…dag. I can’t believe I’ve gotten this out of control, but it’s written all over my face. Literally. So, I took some pictures to commemorate the day. I’ll post them in the future, but I’m to…unhappy with them currently. I need a “X weeks later” after photo to go with them. LOL
Well that’s the end…or might I say the beginning. I’m Black, I’m Vegan, and I love raw food.
