My Accountability Journal

So I've been slipping out of 811rv, mostly in the afternoons. I've immediately noticed it in my body: more bloating, less energy, more feeling tired. So this is my blog and accountability journal so I can get back on track and stay on track. My daily blog posts will include the following (adapted from the BG Diet Challenge on FB):

Raw Food Healing – Giving It Time

This is my first post here on 30bad. Just wanted to share some of my story so far...

Like so many people who follow a raw vegan lifestyle – I was really sick when I started (3 1/2 years ago). I’m still on my journey to wellness and I wouldn’t consider myself a picture of health (yet!), but I have come a very long way thanks largely (though not solely) to a 100% raw vegan diet.

My list of health complaints used to be pretty long, the worst of…

Day 42

Hives on neck. Super itchy.

Lips really itchy too and reddish/chapped.

Acne still showing up and not going away.

Tummy hurting all day...acid reflux and just bloated.

Didn't real feel like eating today, but did anyway. I think it's because I didn't workout yesterday or today, and maybe my body didn't need much food? Just guessing and throwing out ideas.

Tired of bananas.

2L water, 22 bananas, 2 cups watermelon, 6 strawberries.

Living Peacefully, Starting With Our Physical Selves

My second 5k!

I improved my time by 3 minutes. My recovery time was a lot quicker and I could still feel the burn by the back leg muscles for 3 days after the run.  I am super excited to run a 10k, hopefully sometime in July. This in preparation for my first mountain climb in 2014. TGBTG!

As always, I am looking forward to everyone's encouragement :)

Milk?

My friend feeds her son milk but after learning the harmful effects she now wants to look for an alternative. Her son is 3. I suggested hemp, almond, rice, and coconut milk but to be honest I don't know which is best. Any advice? I myself drink almond milk.....is this considered raw? I make my own. I soak my almonds then blend it in the blender.

Day 41

Lips raw and chapped. Itchy too. I don't think eating strawberries helped the problem too much.

Acne still bad and new acne keeps surfacing.

Feel so fat. Don't understand why I'm gaining fat on the HCRV lifestyle. It just concerns me and makes me very upset.

Acid reflux acting up and tummy has been bloated and hurting all day.

Did barn chores.

2L water, 15 bananas, 3lbs strawberries.

Hunger and staples.

Was going to be my fith raw day in a row today. Worked 12-4 and all I can usually manage before a shift like that is 3 bananas and an apple. This only spells disaster as by 4pm I am seriously undercarbed and starving. Then by the time I get home I'm craving cooked food. Today I gave in. After I felt quite disgusting.

Also my staples are bananas and oranges and I'm starting to get bored of constantly eating them. With me living in England, I don't exactly have a great choice of good quality… Continue

Recognizing Each Success

I realized it is important for me to recognize all the little successes that will one day lead up to a bigger success.  But every time I fail, I tend to only look at the failure.  Wasn't I succeeding until I failed?  Why didn't I recognize that before?

And the more you acknowledge successes, the easier it is to stay motivated and keep yourself going.  I decided to play a game with myself.  Habits are formed by repetition, until it becomes second nature.  For every meal that I…

Day 40

Lips a little bothersome this morning, but got worse after working out tonight. Maybe from running (lymph system activated more so than usual)?

Cystic and regular acne still appearing. Some is healing though, so that's good.

Weight trained shoulders and abs, and ran a mile to gym (7min mile). Felt a little taxed during run since haven't ran in a while, but had a good workout.

3L water, 17 bananas, 4 cups watermelon, 2.5lbs grapes, spring greens.

HELP THE DEPRESSION, MAKE THE WORLD HAPPIER!

I have many friends over the internet, mainly girls who are suffering from anorexia, bulimia and many other eating disorders. Countless amount of times I have tried to help and support these girls. Whether it was doing challenges with them where we would both eat nothing all day, (at a point when I experienced anorexia, which my real life friends don't know about). Or where we would talk about our problems, and sometimes I would even get some girls to eat a "healthy diet" for a week with me,…

After a week

So after a week (or so):

1. my acne has been clearing up. The huge cystic acne on my jaw and chin is almost gone. I have had some whiteheads erupt on my cheeks and nose, but they go away in a day. It is no longer painful for me to have my face against a pillow while trying to fall asleep.  In a way, I am breaking out more, because there are more pimples, but they last a shorter amount of time and they aren't leaving huge red marks on my face.

2. I ate some cooked couscous…
