Ok, I made 2 of the recipes already - well the 2nd one is in the dehydrator for a little bit more time (but I licked the bowl).  They are both delicious - the fudge is very remenicent of old fashioned fudge, and the oatmeal fig bars are still in the dehydrator, but they look delicious and, like I said, I licked the bowl.  I can hardly wait until the raw food lunch tomorrow. 

Today was another stormy day here in FL.  I ate vegan today, but not as raw as I would have liked.  I…

YUUUMMMOOOOOOOO I thought as I tucked into my raw dessert last night... it's 'RAW' so I am allowed to eat it..then it hit me.. just because a food is accepted in the raw community doesn't mean it's not fattening and it definitely doesn't mean I am not still overeating and binging on sugar!!

Moderation.. I don't have the moderation gene when it comes to desserts.. so no more binging on desserts young lady! Desserts must be saved for special occasions or baaaaaaaaaaaad…

Hours before April 1st,  I finally decided to give it a try.  I joined with all of you encouraging and awesome rehabbers!  You are all my examples.  I joined GO FRESH!

Okay,  I've been struggling with staying with correct choices since the beginning of the year.  Oh, I've had good days,  but way too many bad ones.  My weight is up and I do not feel well.  So I have been reading every  blog post and I am feeling excited that maybe this is the time to SUCCEED with all…

Hi RFR,

I switched up my morning routine a little the last couple of days. I now have 1/2 a lemon with 1 qt. of green tea. At 11am I have another qt of green tea with chia seeds. My first meal is a smoothie or some flax crackers from whole foods with my my veggie nut burgers. When I eat or drink my 2nd meal it is either some raw pecans & walnuts with 2 tbls of raw organic honey or some bananas or other fruit. My last meal has been arugula,peppers,zuchinni, & veggieburgers in…

Salutations and felicitations to you all! ;)

It has been a long while since I posted my video committing to the raw food lifestyle 100% for a month. Let's just say, it's been a trying, but exhilarating month for me. March is the month that I was able to help Dad fulfill his dream of owning a home again (after 19 years) and in turn, he is fulfilling my dream of settling down roots in a family home. There is so much more to the story of this life and how God has so completely…

Here are some pictures of me over the last two years. I have to share the first because how can I be a witness or give a testimony if I dont show how I looked at the beginning of the test. Also this is to help me and remind me of where I have been, to give me the strength to never go back. AMEN.…

Good Morning Raw Food Rehabbers!!

Isn't today a glorious day filled with sunshine, and opprtunities...a day for all things new?!!! As a lot of us are getting ready to embark on a journey of 11 weeks in Go Fresh....I thought I would give you several quotes today from successful people. One thing I am finding as I researching and reading quotes from people that our society by and large consider successful....they all seem to have a common thread in their thought processes. They…

I am so looking forward to April 1st, but on this day, March 31st, I will not have that "last final day" binge.....

I am not looking to stay 100% raw today, BUT I am looking forward to fresh juice,  fresh, cleansing fruits....some herbal tea and lots of veggies.

I guess I just wanted to post here to REMIND MYSELF that I will not have a "last day binge" on all the junk food that might tempt me.  A reminder that living in a "mixed" household (SAD eaters and ME,…

I've decided that I need to cook -- and stay -- at least one meal ahead.  Smoothies always taste the very best when fresh-made.  Ditto on the fancier salads.  But I find that when things get crazy or the kids have a need-Mom-a-lot days that I will eat junk/SAD if that's all that's ready to go.  I don't want to do that to myself!  And as a homeschooling Mom there are lots of those…

I believe in YOU!  I know you can...

I have made my original juice feast goal of 30 days! I couldn't even have imagined this on day one, and now I am a full 30 days down. It has gotten easy...well...easier. Assessing the situation at this point, I have definitely decided to continue with the juice feast. I plan on going another 30 days and reevaluating how I feel at that point. 

I am extremely pleased with my progress. I feel great. I have so much energy. I am thinking very clearly. I feel much more laid back…

Hello friends!

Yesterday I woke up with a brick in my stomach. At first, I thought it was from eating too late (a bad habit of mine) but as the day went on, my health sunk further and further down until I ended up in the ER!

I had chills, fever, INTENSE body aches and I couldn't even keep water down! So after 2 IVs in the ER, I came home with a diagnosis of the FLU.

I haven't had the flu since I was a kid! And boy...I don't miss it. Today has been a…

the bad news, my mom was diagnosed with a 4 mm cancer growth in a breast duct....

the good news is that it is so small and diagnosed early that the drs can do something like this....

she was just up here last week when i was teaching her about drinking green smoothies and juicing her broccoli stems.....

what else can she do? and i know that's such a broad question, but she's not going to go 100% raw anytime soon---although she enjoyed what she…
