I very much appreciate a day being set aside to celebrate and help heal the earth.  I know this earth day post is a couple of days late, but honestly, that works out perfectly for me.  You see, to me every, single day is earth day.  I am sure you have heard people (including me) say that about different days here and there but I promise you that I genuinely mean this!   

I really, truly do at…

The old John Peel day was about his great and unparalleled contribution to music. New John Peel day is designed to incorporate his other great virtues in addition to this.

Went out and bought a whole ton of fruits and veggies yesterday to last me this week.

I'm really excited and pumped for this.

I've been a vegetarian for 7 years, but being a vegetarian is NOTHING like being a vegan.

Dear everyone,

We ALL have love on Valentine’s Day!

Now before you get angry and throw your chocolates (or fruit ;) at the computer screen (and I understand, I have been there!), please allow me to explain!

LOVE is our very essence.  It flows swiftly and strongly throughout us at ALL times.  It IS us and we are it.  And so, we can never be without it!…

My 20 top tips for a fabulous fruity Valentine's Day! :)

Have an awesome day everyone, Es xxx

Hello I'm exciting about starting this blog. I've been writing in various blogs over the past 12 years. I've been learning more and more about ways to be healthy and what to eat, especially this past week. I can't wait to learn more and write all the things I have learned in this blog.

I've been eating raw since Thursday January 3, 2013. My weight then was nearly 205 lbs. Now at a week later I'm at 201.2 lbs

I'm very proud of my day yesterday. I had balanced meals. I carry…

Hello friend

For those who are interested: This is day 5 of this raw vegan thaang for me.

I have to confess.... Last night around midnight i got thinking about potatoes!........... be merciful now all you HCRVs! I knew they were downstairs, it got too much, i couldn't help myself SO I ATE THEM...... 3 boiled baby potatoes. I was full after the second (i already ate plenty that day) but they were so small i thought i'd shove another into my greedy little face, damn me. Going to…

I am starting my 30 day challenge. I am 5'6" at 128lbs. My goal is to get down to 115lbs in the end. 

Does anyone have any feedback as to how long it took for you to begin loosing weight? Did you gain any weight at first adjusting to the higher calorie intake?

Also, I'm new to the site and was wondering if there were any videos or articles posted already that had basic information such as:

Do I work out before or after I've eaten?

Can I eat the…

This is day two of my journey on HCRV!

I'm feeling really good and also I'm running to the bathroom a lot! Lots of water, hehe :) I took some "before" pictures yesterday and I'm looking forward to posting them when I get some months (like two) in. Feeling more energic, want to do a lot of stuff. That's an improvement!

Drank some Datorade earlier, and before that 2l water. Gonna eat some banana now, and then go out for some cycling and get more dates and banana.…

Hello my beautiful, magestical, love-filled beings,

So it has been a little longer than usual but here I am along with something....straight from my H-E-A-R-T.  Just type and then hit publish.  This is gong to be as raw as it gets folks!

The truth is…I love you all SO MUCH!!!  I know that many of you know me from the internet only and some of you may be reading my blog for the first time right now, but the truth is, it really doesn’t matter to me.  I love you…

Story time!

So, yesterday was my first day completely raw. It was also the first day of my seasonal job: detasseling the corn fields. It's hard work so I ate lots of food

breakfast: 12 bananas

lunch: 12 bananas

snack: watermelon - juiced with lots of pulp still in it

dinner: 10 oranges + a small spinnach salad

snack: a fist full of raw sunflower seeds (probably 20 g)

But when I got up this morning, I was not feeling well. I had joint pain,…

I don't NEED to lose weight at this point. I need to tone up.  However the more I eat my body enjoys letting go of weight.  This morning I hit my lowest weight in 35 years: 109.2.  I am 5'2" and am lean and getting toned from the head down which is what I was told would happen.  My arms will be last I'm assuming!  I want toned arms NOW! LOL 

I had a killer smoothie yesterday:  I made 12 cups! 

4 lbs of bananas= 1703 grms

1 slice of pineapple = 245 grms

1…

DAY 3 all it's rights... :))) a lot of energy, good spirits, smile... great! 

Diary on my BLOG :)…

I messed up on the numbering system for the days I've been on this program. LOL  Brain fritz!  So this is my entry for my actual day 13. 

I had company over last night.  A new mentoring student.  I worked yesterday and came home early and got half the house deep cleaned in 3 hours.  I worked my butt off!  No muscle fatigue issues whatsoever!!  Thanks to the magic of carbs!  I am simply amazed at what those critters can do for my body.  I'm not even sore this morning.  That's…

Day 2 on my BLOG ! 

:)…

Going raw is one of the best steps one can do for physical, emotional and mental health.  Detoxing is an essential element in cleaning out the body.  Going raw does this but while eating food it happens slowly.  There are a lot of toxins that have built up and been stored in our system for years.  I chose to detox rapidly for many health reasons.  That is why I did a 92 day juice feast.  It worked to a large degree. My next step is a water/rest fast for a month at a retreat under…

I got 5 hours of sleep.  BUT I woke up ON TIME and got busy.  I prepared all my meals, did social interaction on 30BAD and went to work.  I had several errands to run and I advertised for my available spots in my cleaning business. 

The errands were interesting.  I went and got a small repair done on my vacuum cleaner.  The owner of the store and I are friends and I've been her client for 20 years at least.  I walked in after dropping my ex-client's key off at their house, saying my…

I learned something new today.  Herbs strengthen their taste the day after you put them into a recipe!  I didn't know. LOL   I had left-over Karen's Savory Korn Chowder.  Wow!  What a kick!  LOL LOL   I may temper the amount of herbs the next time.  Strange though,  I hate, hate, hate spicey and won't even eat anything with pepper on it.  However savory as in fresh herbs tastes great to me.  Yes, the corn chowder was intense, but it was very good!  Lesson learned. 

Yesterday…

Because of my issues with my computer, this is the THIRD time writing this blog.  GRRRRRRRRRRR

Yesterday was a wonderful day again.  I can get used to this for sure!  I had 9 cups of my Ambrosia-Banana-Citrus smoothie; 6 cups of my V6; 3 bananas; and for dinner Tomatoe-Basil soup from 80/10/10 and Spinach-Pesto Salad:…
