yeah, i felt that way too initially. i asked for an outline not in black but was told it wouldn't look very good later. i did get it, i just don't know if i want to make any changes to it. i would accentuate the art nouveau (think Alphonse Mucha) ...

I'm not familiar with nouveau style, and if that is the style in which this tattoo was done and you like it, then go for it. I really like the rose, but I don't really like how it is done in this picture. Personally, I think the outline is WAY too...

nice color! works so well on your pale skin.

i know right! i have never had experiences as bad as those, but definitely have been lightly made fun of, had eyes rolled at, overall given the feeling that i am a pain in the ass. but i agree, you are what you eat and it is ridiculous to throw a ...

Love this. I was considering hosting a vegetarian thanksgiving for some friends that mix from being interested in being veg, vegetarians and vegans. Any good recipes to share?

yeah. it is a marilyn monroe rose, which means more to me than just marilyn though i love her to death. i knew i really only wanted one tattoo that had to be timeless and pretty, feminine. i wanted this for two years before i go it. but i don't kn...

Profile Information

About Me:
i am a full time student of biology with plans to become a veterinarian or medical illustrator, but i also have a lot of interest in marine biology and participating in the conservation of species. i work full time and wish i could concentrate more on academics. my other (secret) goal is to become a model. i think it would be an amazing and fun experience and a neat way to support myself while i achieve my many other goals in life. i especially want to model for playboy as i love their representation that good girls like sex too. overall i really want to be healthy and energetic and happy with the way i look and feel. i want to travel the world and live and see amazing and beautiful things. i like tiny boxes, tea with lemonade, office supplies, and white fur (but only on live animals-not the wearing kind). also, moonlit bike rides. i am madly in love with my boyfriend of 7 years and he is the best thing in the world to me!! <3
How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc)
i always feel like an outcast with my views of food-many people poke fun at my food and act like it is so weird to eat fruits and veggies all the time. i like to make friends and talk to other people with the same views about nourishment-or at least people who can recognize a pear when they see one.

does your hood compost?

i was recently in no. california and the house i stayed in had one garbage can dedicated to compostables, so we threw in out fruit cores and appropriate paper plates, etc. i was stoked that this little town had compost pickup. i don't have that here, i am wondering what other places do, how can i get it done here???

progress

i am about to finish the 3rd week of p90x and am doing great. i really like the program and have seen some changes. i have however been slipping on being raw and it totally shows because i have been foggy-headed and not making the same progress i know i would be if i were eating better (not that i have been all that bad-just HUNGRIER!) so i am concentrating on not skipping the green smoothie/juice each day and making sure i have enough raw food/snacks to take to work so i don't delve in Rachel's… Continue

Tapioca/Rice paper???

I have fallen in love with tapioca paper as a wrapper for my veggies. I made a carrot/ginger sauce that i put in with the peppers, onion, avocado (<3), spring mix, etc. and roll it in these papers and it is fantastic and amazing. yes, the papers are cooked and all starch but i feel like i will take it because my veggies are neatly wrapped a la sushi (hate seaweed, hence the predicament). Anyone have thoughts?

P90X and 90% raw- what do you think?

I know that some people do better with gradual changes. I am not quite sure yet what works for me though I have been aiming to all raw for 6 months now and I dip in and out of cooked foods and even some really obnoxious sweets here and there. I am venturing out and want to try to maintain 90% raw and start this P90X program. I am a little nervous about failing, but I guess if I fail it would be better than chickening out before I even start. I have heard this program is really tough and though I… Continue

Well, that's great, and if you're gaining a little weight it may be muscle, which is heavier than fat! Let me know if you have any interest in considering membership or becoming a coach, or I could also send you a free sample of some of the products, if you'd like. Unfortunately not raw, though.

hey! yea i love being raw! as for the weight loss - i used to eat whatever i wanted until late high school/college and my weight seems to be slowly climbing up. i've literally tried everything..diets/liver cleansing/enemas/supplements, etc. BUT with researching the raw diet i got to learn about candida and all of the awful symptoms. I realized that my body is filled with it because of all the antibiotics I was put on in high school and i continue to feed it with sugar. (going raw at first, i ate a lot of fruit especially bananas so all of that sugar continued to make me feel sick unfortunately). I'm not sure if going raw is helping you but I would definitely look into candida. there are plenty of online quizzes to diagnose you if you search them. it could help!! I am looking forward to finally getting better and feeling light again!

best of luck to you and if you have any questions i'm here! also you look gorgeous in your bikini pic - you definitely carry weight in the right places and you're beautiful but feeling good and looking good are sometimes two different things!

:) Tara

Hey sister,
You're absolutely about the raw food helping! What we put into our bodies is what we put out into the world. But....how we are FEELING is the fuel to everything. If you are sad about something, and you eat, you're actually stuffing the sadness deeper into your body. As we ascend, it is our role to become more aware of the little crevices of our bodies that are no longer vibrating at the highest frequency and RELEASE them. Extra weight on the body is actually EMOTIONAL. Every time you experience something, your body has a response. But chances are, you've not had a chance to release it. So, if you can, dive into your body and identify the areas that you aren't comfortable with and see what comes up as to WHY it is the way it is. Let me know when you've done that and you have send me a private message if you like about what you found. Then we can go on to the next thing. Clear the body! Clear the Mind! And let the soul come home.

Much love
A

Hey! That was a typo on my profile... RSP in Prescott is on Sept 26-27; not in August. Yeah I think it'll be great fun and the weather should be pleasant too.

I won't be going to school- at least not a traditional school; I might take some classes in Alternative healing or something that i like but no plans as of now. How about you... how are you doing? I haven't seen you on here in awhile.

hey. okay. well i'm quite busy with work and other things but i promise once things slow down a bit more i'll have some time. plus tempe is close to where i live now. i'm quitting smoking (yikes)...so i'm a bit nerved about it but want more oxygen. i don't smoke a lot. drinking a green smoothie right now then going to do some laps out in the poolie... i think that exercise thing is GREAT no matter what happens for me whenever i start exercising its like only good things happen. i think the exercise program and then adding in fruit...work in tandem together for sure.

just wanted to say whats up. been off computer for WEEKS completely off it... not even a second to check it not by choice. anyways really getting into consciously eating fruit and greens. like the greens for the CALM energy. like the fruit for the manic HIGH energy... both kinda HIGH-type energies. idk just wanted to shout out to you.

if you still ever wanted to meet up and get some sun or whatever i would be totally down to meet up and we could exchange knowledge..don't know how the hubby would be with that...lol... its all good is he raw or involved that way? probably not? how is your garden :)
