Profile Information

About Me:: Mother, Lover, Court Reporter...Totally in love with my wonderful husband...and shamefully adoring of my two boys, age 2 and 7.

My approach to this lifestyle/way of eating is perhaps not as dogmatic as it should be, but I'm tired of feeling bad about not being perfect....so I'm taking it day by day.

How can the community best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, fitness tips, etc): I feel completely isolated in this Raw Food quest, since no one I have ever met in person has followed or researched it like I have. This community seems like a perfect fit for my connectedness needs!

Relationship Status:: Married

Favorite Raw Food or Recipe?: Green Smoothies!!! and my own creation....Chocaroach...You take a medjool date and halve it, put some raw almond butter mixed with raw cacoa, salt, and agave, and it tastes amazing...try it!

Interests (outside of Raw Food):: My adorable kids and fantastic husband

Favorite Books or Authors:: Even Cowboys Get the Blues...anything by Tom Robbins!!

Favorite Quote:: Let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food

MySpace Profile:: http://myspace.com/tv3guy

GI2MR Oath: I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I will not name call or throw around personal attacks. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. When possible, I'll try to smile : ): Yes! I accept the GI2MR Oath.

Have a great week!

At 7:17pm on August 24, 2008, Lolixx said…: HI:) Thank you so much for your kind words in your response to my blog post "transitions". You pointing out my depression regarding my mother was such a wow moment for me. So true! I didn't even think about that. It's funny how we as humans suppress the real issue clouding our own judgment and believing it is something else.
Your note opened my eyes to the true issue. Thank you so much!

Have a great week:)

At 2:04pm on August 8, 2008, morning said…: mama, you just keep on nursing until he wants to stop, so long as you want.....it is absolutely the best thing for him, and dont let anyone tell you otherwise....i would still be "nursing"but my littlest had a bad latch at birth, and i have been pumping for the past 11 months. my milk is finally drying up, but it is perfect timing, she is really not interested anymore except at night, and that is for a bottle or 2, so im happy with how far we have come....i nursed my 1st little one for 2 years till she weaned herself, it is alot easier to transition that way.

wow a court transcriptionist! very cool.....i can imagine that would be sort of boring some days though....im glad that you found such a well paying job here in s.c. though....

i was about 80-90% raw a few months ago for about a month or 2 and i felt un-believable....but my milk supply dropped too fast, so i went back to a cooked veg. diet....but now that i am not lact. anymore i am excited to start back up....i would love to go 100% but i live in a cooked food house....so a little pasta now and then or rice is my sinful delight...hahaha oh and i love chocolate....boy does that get me in trouble....i love to make raw chocolate, but sometimes that yummy bar of dark choc beckons to me to be eaten.....
do you have any support there? or do you meet up with a raw group? im sure there are a few raw foodies there in columbia.....im sure that would probably help....when i have support, and someone to cheer me on on a daily basis it is much easier to get over the big hump.

let me know if i can help in any way.....

let me know if you get a chance to make it to the carrot.....i might make a trip out that way just to check it out.

what do you depo??

i am a new re-dedicator, mow that my little one has weaned i am trying to get back to atleast 80% id love more, but ill go it slow to start off....it always causes tention in the house when i make major shifts in any area of my life, but it keeps me in check....good stuff.
