I. don't . want. to. meet. your. parents!
Is it wrong to not want to meet your boyfriend's parents? I am currently unemployed and couch surfing at my boyfriends home. I am willing to move in with my mom and end it with my boyfriend because I have an overwhelming amount of anxiety about meeting his parents. Long story short They lived abroad for the majority of our relationship. He has met my family. I have exchanged Xmas gifts to them through him. Never met or talked with his parents. The boyf…

Hi,
Its been a while since my last post and lots have happened. At the beginning of August I completed a week long fast. It consisted of Coconut water, Watermelon juice, Green juice and Lots and lots of water. I did not have any particular change or detox symptoms. But I had an incredible experience separating and understanding hunger. The weeks after the fast I have noticed I feel more satisfied with less substantial meals. Keeping it simple is so true. Whatever is in the house is what I gravi…

First of all let me say I FINISHED!!!! Thank God!
Secondly Days 4-7 were a trial of my patience more than a battle with food. I found that I was short with people and emotionally unbalanced. If anyone is not acquainted with the viral wedding dance video:

Give this a look. I was in tears.. I don't cry often so I will attribute it to not having eaten. Arguments drained me and left me tired. One thing I take away from this fast is being tired. I still fe…

I am on Day 4 of my detox fast which is going. Not very eventful so far today but here is a recap of yesterday:
I drank coconut water first
Watermelon juice for lunch
Coconut Water late afternoon
Watermelon juice - dinner
I had a few bouts of anxiety before bed thinking that I should eat something. But no real physical hunger it was more or less like telling my brain to shut off and stop thinking about what was the usual routine. I was super sore all day from a halfway workout of Namaste yoga…

I have never heard of a 13 moon calendar until today. As I really look at my life and what I am experiencing timing is the reoccurring element. According to 13 moon calendars today is the end of the year. The end of the year marks the beginning of a new year. Typically we make resolutions and in my case empty promises. For a while I have been wanting to commit to raw living foods but different things had caused a mental and emotional set backs. Last night I embarked on a raw and living food feas…

For those easily offended sorry.
I have been raw in some form since Dec 26th 2008. This week by far has been the most disturbing in terms of my digestion. I made chocolate with maca, cacao and cacao butter and really my stomach hasn't been the same since. I normally eat a fruit for breakfast , a salad for lunch, some nuts another piece of fruit for snack and then a salad or a raw creation of some sort for dinner. As soon as I wake up I feel the beginnings of the dreaded "BG's" aka Bubble Guts.…

I have never really wanted cooked food more than this week it seems. I have been raw for three weeks( take away points for cocoa and a whole pita and hummus and pita chips) OK sue me. Yeah I'm hostile and a bit more irritable than a few weeks back. I don't know if it is normal or because my boyfriend is home. I had the apartment to myself for a while and although I missed him I also realized how much I like my own routine. I am on a mission to create a raw version of Ben's Chili Bowl Veggie Chil…

Happy New Year!
I have just returned to work after nearly two long weeks off. I saw friends and family fought , laughed and cried. I was also eating out of whack. Since the Spring I had my mind set on transitioning to raw but I couldn't commit. Finally I had this break. My boyfriend is on vacation and I had the last week of my own vacation. I knew it was time.
I have been raw 7 days today and really I know its a short time but I am surprised at how focused and clear I am about the choice to co…

Last night I celebrated one of my best friends 25th birthday. I have started to re evaluate how I look at how I live my life in terms of a 12 month cycle. Our birthdays are a celebration of our own new year. With January more than half way behind us I feel defeated as most of my resolutions have been sitting getting dusty on my life's shelf. My birthday comes only 21 days after my friend and I have so many things I thought I would have accomplished thus far in this year and in life. I have alway…
