heh heh...I am only seemingly obsessive with my cleanse for 2 reasons...to keep me honest and sticking with the cleanse since it was not easy for me this time to reach the magic month of June which was when I had planned my 30 day cleanse. I also wanted some evidence since I did not take notes the last cleanse and so I wanted to remember it. Also, I would like my daughter to be motivated to cleanse sometime. She would be motivated to read my blog. She is tall and slender but everyone can use the digestive rest once a year, so, a mom's motivation there for me.

I eat close to the source. I was a vegetarian for years until last year. I live with people who are psychic and so 2 different people told me it was time to begin eating meat again and so I did since I needed to be grounded out more. I am a blood type O which are meateaters although I do not follow that to a T. I thought after so many years eating meat might make me feel sick but after it made me feel better, I have continued to eat it. I enjoy 1 chicken a week although I often will sneak back to my tofu ways when no one is around. Otherwise, I like coffee and make it strong. I juice a lot, and eat steamed veggies and rice. I have really been developing a herbal tea "thing"...ggg.

I am of the school too, that no foods are off limit. Personally though, I work hard to avoid MSG and I never eat anything with articial sweeteners, aspartame or splenda.

I do not drink sodas, do like a beer once in a while, and do not drink as much wine because my body no longer tolerates the sulfates as much. I love Ezekiel bread and am not afraid of butter. I cook my eggs in olive oil and bought a poacher while on this cleanse and cannot wait to use it. But no, I really try to buy the best food I can afford but eat balanced. I live in a retreat center and often we have large groups and it is nothing for me to fix breakfast for 20-30. Others come and cook which is fun since it is fun to eat someone else's cooking. It is difficult to cook totally separate from what others are having. Fortunately we all juice and the meals are really healthy except for the dessert. But this summer, everyone is traveling or at our other center so I have the place to myself and so this is a perfect time for me to do the Master Cleanse. My appetite was reset doing my last one so I eat a lot less and with a focus on fueling my body.

I hope you have fun doing raw. My efforts have improved there too and I am investigating fermented foods more, which is a kind of raw which is really good for your gut....

Have a great day~~~!

blessings,
Zoe
