Happy New Year!
This is the first blog of hopefully many more. I've been not blogging mainly because I've gone off the deep end a little bit and my camera has been broken. These two forces combined have not been conducive with blogging!
Now, I like the holidays but I am really REALLY glad they are over. For some reason this year they were a bit overwhelming PLUS I'm really excited to get back to a more balanced lifestyle. I have to admit I'm a little nervous about restarting this high raw thing. I remember how excited I was when I was getting started out the same way last January (2009) and did the Master Cleanse for 16 days, only lost 4 pounds, and then gained 10 more through out the rest of the year. That was even after doing Slim in 6 for 6 weeks, P90X with NO loss of inches or weight (I could do more standard push-ups though), another round of Slim in 6, ran for a month, and pretty much did raw til dinner (Raw Food Detox Diet) the rest of the time. Some how with all of that I gained the 10 and just don't feel great not to mention the crazy eczema behind the knees and at my elbow joints, around the eyes (horrendous) and mouth. Now I'm really NOT trying to complain (I did enough of that LAST year!) but merely trying to explain my apprehension.
All that to say amid the apprehension, I'm SUPER STOKED about finding the Raw Food Rehab website and the fine community there. http://www.rawfoodrehab.ning.com/ What a blessing and answer to prayer.
I ran this morning- I think I must have forgotten that I am also training for the Kentucky Derby Mini Marathon again. I've done it twice but the last time was 5 years ago. SO- here I go again. I did Day 1 of training which was 2 miles. Yes, I, at 7 A.M. this morning got up and ran outdoors in the dark. It wasn't as bad as I thought. Usually day 2 is worse!
So, on to getting my camera software up and running.
I hope to be posting my daily dietary intake and some pictures.
