Well, I officially signed up with Team In Training to raise money for the leukemia, lymphoma society and compete in the Irongirl Triathlon here in Georgia. I am not a huge fan of raising money for cancer "research" but what I really loved about this charity is that not all the money raised goes to research. A lot of it goes to help patients (mostly children) with medical bills and to provide peers for them (of kids who've already been through what they are going through) to help take away som

So. I've been attempting to follow the 811 diet ~ feeling in my heart that this is the right way to go. I just REALLY didn't realize how challenged I would be. I was making a decadent raw desert for a potluck I am attending tomorrow and I had some of the base left over. It tasted just like candy and I ate the whole bowl. Maybe a cup and a half of this rich fatty mixture. BIG MISTAKE. It's like I was hypnotized
