Chuckling, somewhat!  I wrote one blog post, and it was two years ago.  Wowee!!  I actually can't believe that!  BUT, here I am again!  I start tomorrow on my 30 day Raw Food Challenge.  I have three days off to be at home and most likely feel like poo!  But, the third day, should be a move upwards and I am pretty excited.  I contacted an ole' friend, that helped me along this path several years ago.  We meet through a raw food blog, and are still friends more than 10 years later.  I am very…

Although everyday I strive to eat primarily raw foods....at least over 60%, I'm choosing to eat at least 95%. My main reason for doing this is I will feel happy.

Happy about.......

feeling healthy

having energy

having healthy skin

being natural

being on my journey to my healthy body weight

being loving

being free from eating animals

Today, I've been eating  veggies.... I plan on eating fruits tonight! I'm very excited…

So I am going to be traveling alot this summer between family vacations, Just the Girls trips, and also to a few state parks for events such as weddings.  Some of the places I will be going to are pretty remote with little to no convient store, restaurants, or food options so I am going to have to prepare to take and pack my own food. 

I am thinking of constructing a "portable" kitchen.  I just don't know exactly what I will need.  I am thinking of a few cutting boards (the…

So I've been "back" for 3 days now. Today's my favorite day so far, I decided to dust off my Excalibur after not using it for about a year!

I made some of Ani Phyo's Almond Cookies! They are dehydrating now, and I can't wait till they are done.

We are having a new skater orientation tonight for our league (if you don't already know, I play roller derby) and I'm excited to be able to take a healthy snack to share with the girls! Haha I actually moved my dehydrator from the…

Anybody know where to find a list of the winners from last night? Inquiring minds want to know. They are not posted on the Best of Raw website yet. The site operators must have had a late night and laying low today.

Congrats to Penni and all the family here!  I'm still looking around, but have already seen why this place is so special. :)))

If you think this can help someone.. please pass it on.  This isn't about views.. it's about helping people LIVE.  The end shows a special message and information as to what this video included and what it didn't.  

Thank you all for all of your support.  Create a great day!

It's August 7th, I am no longer soley juicing, although

I am tempted to do mostly juice and additionally

some puree/soup style sources of calories next week, as the

Raw Food Rehab Juice Feast Initiative is set to begin.

I had excellent results in weight release while juicing and found that my energy was such that I was still able to get sufficient exercise to maintain a more stable feel good attitude!

Since stopping the feast after 20 days…

Hi everybody,

As promised, I'm reporting back about the great time I had at the Raw Health Expo!

John Kohler puts this…

A little about me,

My name is Mike and I live in the bayous of southeast Louisiana.  I am 34 years old and I have always been big.  I have felt bad about my weight for a long time and have researched different methods of weight loss.  Over the years I have tried many things.  Some worked temporarily, but nothing stuck...  Actually, I never stuck.  I was not ready to change my lifestyle.  I was looking for a quick fix.

Over the years I have developed health issues…

Hi Everyone!  I am so sorry I have not been too involved for a few weeks now, but I did not forget any of you.  Especially Penni and Susan.  I really love all the help and learning about RAW that I could get this past year and a 1/2.  I was able to go from 152 lbs last year to 128 this year.  But all of a sudden, I had some weird cravings this past week.  I felt like eating popcorn last Sunday with salt.  Throughout the week a little more mozzarella cheese than usual and a bit more sweet…

Just For Today:

I am grateful to have my kids stayover last night and they are snoozing still.

I am grateful I'm dressed to take my first short actual "run" in months (besides running to catch the max).

I am…

I’m baaaaack!

I was in the original group of guinea piglets with Susan, Jodi, Robin and many others who are still around here!  I lost 17 pounds or so, without dieting or going hungry, with an 80% or so raw food way of eating.  (I don’t care for the word “diet” -- sounds like Atkins or something….lol)  (I’m “OceanGoddess” in the Raw Food Cleanse book! :))

Well, there was just one problem with high-raw for me:  I got violently ill around weeks 4-5.  I had to…

I might not be the thinnest most healthiest person on earth, but I have had some major battles in health and the point is I'm keeping love in motion for…
