Hey Raw World !

Tonight rock melon fest brought some clarity to my carbs loaded up brain.

How envy works ?

Suddenly I had that thought about all those times I felt miserable and started looking at other people lives with envy like a starving kids would look at some Christmas windows over flowing with food and presents.

All those times I fought the envy and gave myself a hard time for just feeling it.

So how did that work…

starting with the first facts exposed.

People eating diets rich in animal protein are developing more tumors.

YEURK !

I just can't believe the medical authorities in our modern civilized countries are not promoting that message everywhere and saving millions of lives and dollars each year.

WTF ?

Hay Raw World !

The emotional roller coaster from the "detox from chemical rich food " aka processed refined food is still on for me  but with a totally new dimension.

I now enjoy a lot more clarity of mind and reading my emotions is easier as well as expressing what I feel.

Two days ago I was starting to plan and organize my wedding and asked my parents if they were willing to take a 2h30 plane trip to attend my wedding. My mum was happy and cheerful but…

I have been off the road for a while now and struggling a lot both with a huge weight gain and a lot of of not exercising enough.

I am planning to get back on track.

Just doing it : eating raw.

Hey world !

Eventually after all the bumps and holes on the road less traveled I settled down into a a routine.

It includes :

1. sleeping a lot

2. peeing a lot

3. pooping a lot

4. smoothies for breakfast

5. veggies salad for lunch and dinner

6. munching on fruits during the day

7. drinking fruit juice to get an energy boost while working

8. twice a week cut, chop, pack big bowls of veggies for work and…

you find out that you have been ranking your relationship with your partner very high on the priority ladder and he is not ranking it at all at the same level ?

He'd rather take any opportunity that comes  spending time with people  people just taking advantage.

Loyalty or personal commitment doesn't make a difference at all.

I think I need to sit down and breath deeply to digest that revelation.

Today I started weight training with my kettlebell.

Here is the deal : if really there are no protein in fruit and veggies, not good enough or just not enough to promote, allow and/or enhances lean mass gain then in six weeks from now up to six months of regular weight training there will be absolutely no change into my body shape, my body fat percentage or my body lean mass.

But if there is, just one single change in my body shape, body fat percentage or lean…

Just there :

Hi there !

My word review is coming up and I feel screwed up full speed.

I made the mistake of getting caught in the stress of a coworker and the show he made. I have been stupid since I lost my energy on him and then got caught up in the stress ending not sleeping.

My stress level is over the roof and my fruit supply is down to the roots of the tomato plants in my garden.

Body : I stopped green smoothies after two days for two reasons :

Hey Raw World !

I have been wondering about today's topic for a while but I definitely think there is a difference.

My hearing and smell are a lot more accurate now and precise.

I get really annoyed by noises that other people are not noticing, like they are not hearing them.

I also get annoyed by smell that are too strong for me but once again not noticed by other people.

So, unless I am sick from something I don't know of, I…

Hey Raw world !

Today I woke up in fears. S-C-A-R-E-D I was.

Scared of messing up with my inspection in two weeks... can you believe that ?

It really scares the s*** out of me !

So this is it : I really want to get that thing right and I am overly scared of the consequences if I mess it up.

Like I will get a spray, a spray doesn't kill.

I will get to know what I am doing wrong and how to fix it.

I will still have a job and the sane pay…

Hi there !

Last night was sleepless, the neighbors decided to scream and scream and hammered their furniture to go with it until 2 AM. When the police came and they eventually lowered the volume, the dogs in the street took a turn.

I am considering things and I think i am sitting in a flow of bad luck. Something is not right. it is so much not like me to go through this and be so sad and in pain. And I don't think it has anything to do with the…

Hi there !

So in my life things are falling apart. It looks like i haven't felt good a whole day for ages and I am really getting to the point where I can't take no more.

My partner suddenly ignored me and i am thinking he might have cheated on me.

The communication is broken and I am supposed to fly to meet him next week.

I got serious trouble with a kid at work, he might punch either one of the other kid or me because he is trapped in a spiral of...…

Hi there !

Today the sky is grey it is cold and wet and I am feeling happy despite a few bad things happening both in the work world and the relationship world. I won't give up on myself and happiness because there is drama and stress. I need to breath and breath and breath again ! And be happy !

Today I saw the light.

At lunch time.

In a can.

I was going to get some rice for lunch, the usual lunch cooked meal again but suddenly I…

Hi there,

Last night was very challenging, first with a tremendous sadness burdening my heart, not so sure I identified the feeling's origin. I ate fruits and fruits and more fruits to the point I could mathematically be sure I was carbed up and then let it go. If Sadness there is then... sadness there is...

Then came the cravings for cooked food at dinner. It is a strong habit I have to challenge and change now.

I made raw treats with coconut, dates and…

Hi there !

So yesterday I felt like crap again, both in my body and in my soul.

It was just like the sky was falling on me and all my emotions were like a tsunami crushing down every single thing. I had a good chat with my partner that got brave and stayed by my side while I was falling into pieces on the floor. It is a great step for me in our relationship, we never had that intimacy before and it was also a great step for me in letting go and accepting to be…

Hi there !

Tonight I am hot ! My temperature increased just after I finished chomping down my salad, first tine that I get a thermic effect from my raw food. I am taking this as a good sign !

I am going to give a good try to fully raw again on day17, Monday. I am really willing to get into the fully raw swing. So it is time to have a look at the obstacles and get to know how to overcome them.

1. Dressings : my raw dressing suck most of the time, I…

Hi there !

Today my mindset is amazing ! I would feel amazing too if not tired from night #2 of insomnia.

My mind is just amazing, I feel so HAPPY !

I feel so enthusiastic about life I struggle getting to sleep. My head's on the pillow and I just can't wait to be tomorrow !

This is my first period on raw-raw and it is strange. The PMS was the worst ever in my whole life and yesterday my tummy was painful and sensitive until I had a diarrhea, then it…
