I am so excited and glad that I found this website! I've been seeking a solution to the problems of obesity and exhaustion and I'm so glad that I've found a good one.
Today I ordered the ebook about eating raw for weight loss. I'm eager to read it. I think that this time, I may lose weight and keep it off because I am willing to give up my M & Ms, Coke, and even coffee.
I feel like dancing with joy to celebrate my rediscovery of raw food.

I'm practicing the habit of acknowledging each step toward my goal. For example:

Today I ate a nice salad with avocado, spring mix, grape tomatoes, cucumbers and lemon dill dressing and drank some water with TrueLemon.

Today I decided to drink a green vegetable juice and a fruit juice each day. Naked Juice is widely available here and I can easily find a Green Machine and a Cherry Pomegranate Power to drink each day. Each bottle contains a pound of produce and it's cheaper and more convenient than making the juice myself. I also drink water and am taking glucomannan tablets that my friend sent me last year.

Beyond that, I'm eating as I see fit. Today I ate a burrito with beans, beef and green chile in a flour tortilla. One of my goals is to radically reduce the amount of meat in my diet and virtually eliminate refined grain products and sugars. This burrito sank like a stone and I regret having eaten it. Maybe beans are ok but not mixed with meat and wrapped in a refined flour tortilla. Live and learn.

I'm also going to reduce my coffee consumption (at least on most days) from one pressing maximum per day (a Starbucks tall) by drinking green tea instead. I'm feeling more energetic already thanks to the fruit and vegetable juices so this seems feasible right now.

Today I drank lots of water. I also ate some baby carrots (they taste fantastic) and some organic Pico de Gallo corn chips. I'm looking forward to this year's harvest.

I found an interesting 92 day juice feast featured on a website and I'm hoping to try it soon. I may have to break down and buy a juicer or at least a blender.

Right now, I'm considering my finances and have decided to start with the Master Cleanse before considering the 92 day juice fast. I can afford it and it's easy and won't disturb my daily routine. I am looking forward to the day when I can drink fresh raw juice freely. I found an interesting book online called "Raw Juices Can Save Your Life". It might prove useful as I want to drink juices that will most benefit my body. I can't afford a tailored raw juice fast right now, but I can look for this book in the library.

Today I drank Master Cleanse beverage in the morning and ate raw pineapple. It's so good!
Since I began eating more raw food I've become more conscious of what I'm eating and drinking. I haven't craved coffee and haven't had any in two days, which surprises me. I also noticed that less food is satisfying my appetite.
On the personal side(TMI for some, I suspect), the Master Cleanse beverage is flushing some old bilirubin out of my liver. I'm careful to drink plenty of water and rest and I'm feeling good.
