Day 9 ~CELEBRATION!~

I totally splurged today! I ate whatever I wanted so long as it was raw! Celebrating is fun sometimes! I had strawberry cheesecake from WFM, portabellas in sweet shoyu sauce & carob bars at home, Mediterranean wraps, spicy olives, beet slaw & a durian/coconut shake at Go Raw Cafe! What a day! :D

That's what I love about going low fat raw... besides the results LOL! It's like before I would eat anything so long as it was raw, then cheat with cooked foods or give in to cooked cravings or go back to it for whatever reason. Now cheating for me is having a whole avocado or carob bars and eating whatever I want so long as it's raw! I love it! :D

Ok so here are my results so far at less then 10 days:

The bottom of my right foot has been itching like crazy since yesterday lol

My skin is looking amazing!

I'm starting to get a nice tan!

Still clearing quite a lot of mucous.

I'm not stiff when I wake up in the mornings now, I can get right up & do physical work now! It used to take me 2 hours or more to "wake up" and I would usually sit at the computer during that time all stiff & sore before I could do anything!

My endurance is so much more then it used to be!

I have energy for whatever I want or need to do, it's just always there when I need it.

My attitude is so much more positive! It takes a lot more to get under my skin now.

Only had one minor panic attack & it was only from the caffeine in the kombucha!

I can be around sick people & not have to worry about 'catching' it. Mom's been sick for days now from eating really crappy lately.

I have lost 8 pounds since I started this challenge 9 days ago!

Oh! Check this out! My period only lasted 24 hours this time!!! It used to be 5-7 days & AWFUL! Then I went vegan & raw off & on & it became 3-4 days, then lately 2-3 days. Now it's ONE DAY! I don't have pain or even notice it's there! So much less trash too :D

I go to bed earlier & wake around 8am everyday naturally now! No more insomnia!

I'm sure I’m leaving some out, I’m tired lol

I heard from a friend that a new raw cafe is opening on Sahara & Rampart I think it is. I am looking forward to checking it out!

I have added a daily shot of wheatgrass to my plan for now, this is one of the kinds I’m using:

65% organic kamut leaf juice, 35% organic alfalfa leaf juice.

"Green Kamut® Wheatgrass is premium 100% pure, certified organic green food powder!

Strength Training:
Went to the gym & did a full body workout.

Swam laps for about 15 minutes & sat it the Jacuzzi. Layed in the sauna for about 15 minutes.

I weigh 202 pounds now!
