I talked with my friend today that is a Bodybuilder in Canada. She gave me some great ideas to help me drop some pounds. She mentioned broccoli, sweet potatoes (juiced while cleansing) and a few other things will help aid me in my journey. I will look at the links she sent me and let […]

Great day today. Woke up refreshed and happy. I had Cereal for breakfast and had a great and productive day at work. I went to the trainer after work and had a great workout. Only problem we ran into is figuring out why I am retaining so much water. I was 3 pounds down from […]

So my new favorite dish is CHEEZY KELP NOODLES from Planet Raw. They are sooooo delicious. Cheese made from nuts is the most ingenious thing I have ever heard. I was always a cheese freak growing up. I would eat it on everything melted, grated or just cut a block off and eat it just […]

Hey y’all. I had warm food today. It was wonderful. I went to Native Foods for lunch and got their Soul Bowl. It was just what I needed. lol I wanted some warm food and drove far for lunch to get something healthy within the means of the vegan diet. I’m going to try not […]

Yeah! My face no longer looks like I’m diseased! My voice is still gone but my throat isn’t as sore. I gave up on cleaning. I guess I will have to hire a maid once a month to do dusting and vacuuming. I don’t want this problem every time I need to do a thorough […]

Today is the last day of the first cleanse. I made it!!! lol. I decided to clean up my home today, I dusted, swept, mopped, washed my clothes and dishes. So of course while cleansing my house I had an allergic reaction. I had a mask on while cleaning and it didn’t seem to help. […]

Yeah it’s Friday! Today went by fast. I had a lot of work to do and I completed almost all of it. I wasn’t foggy all day which to me was great. But…I was sore as hell from all the workouts this week and walking up and down the stairs at work really was painful […]

So today went by well. I ate frequently, made sure I had plenty of water throughout the day and went to the 6 a.m. definitions and ab classes at the gym. There was a different trainer today and he was something fierce. Everything was sore on me. I didn’t have any energy after leaving those […]

So did a lot of soul searching today…I’m cool now. My day was pretty good. People keep telling me I’m getting smaller but I don’t see it. I stand in the mirror naked like most people do and try the side view…still looks the same to me, then I try the front view…the same to […]

I realized why my focus was off. My grandfather is in his transitional stage. He lived a full life though, 95 beautiful years and accomplished so much. I have mixed feelings about this. Although I don’t feel as I did when my father past, probably because it was my first experience with a close death, […]

Today was back to work as usual but I couldn’t focus today. Not like usual. I slept all night. Was dead by 7p.m. So, I thought I would have energy today. I couldn’t focus on my usual tasks and my mind kept wandering all day. I made it through the day and went to the […]

It’s raining. Not just raining it’s pouring outside and the wind is blowing so hard I think one of these trees is gonna end up in my window. I decided not to go anywhere today. Getting in that looks like trouble to me. I juiced some kale, carrot and orange juice which was pretty good. […]

I woke up at 7a.m. ready to get my outdoor activity for the day over. My boss didn’t answer so I started to clean my house as I usually do on the weekend. I moved here not to long ago and I’m still trying to find a home for all my stuff as well as […]

So my back pain isn’t as bad as yesterday. My muscles are still tense and I felt little spasms throughout the day. I decided to order a salad for lunch from the Vegan Joint. It was a great salad. It had mushrooms, beets, red and yellow onions, peas and carrots and a great raw sweet […]

I woke up in back pain. I strained my back. Great.  Doing crunches, I hurt my back. Not regular crunches before people think I’m an old fart but the ones that you lay flat on the floor with your hands above your head and you bring your hands and feet off the ground to kinda […]

Have you ever really wondered what your body actually does when you sleep? It’s just amazing to me that I can go to sleep not feeling anything at all and as soon as I wake up, my body feels like I was hit by a train. lol. I did yoga so why am I so […]

What a wonderful morning! Had a great rest. My energy has picked up a lot in the last few days. I still have not been able to make it to 1380 calories a day lol. That seems so weird. I use to hope I didn’t go over 1800 calories and now on a raw food […]

Since I went shopping I had a lot of food to choose from for the day. I decided on grapefruit for breakfast and oh my god was it good. I did buy some fruit bars from Larbar. Delish!!! They are made from dates, raw cocoa and cashews. I never thought that this would be good. […]

Woke up early today, hopped in the shower and went to my favorite wholefoods in El Segundo. It is huge, think like a Costco or Sam’s Club but with all healthy or mostly healthy foods. They have a great organic section as well as a lot of local farm fruits and veggies that I always […]

While detoxing I never have consistent sleeping patterns, one day it’s an early retire the next I cant fall asleep at all. The last week is indeed the best week for sleep for me. What has changed this go round is the 6 day a week workout regimen I am on. 3 days trainer 2 […]
