- Eat and be merry!16 mon
- I'm baaaaack...with food drama.
Food addiction near went away. In fact, the more stress in the job and at home with finances, I desperately tried to get more control of my own eating and body. Made my bowel issues worse and I’m coming to the realization that it’s not what I eat, it’s what is eating ME.
Right now I’m almost 155 pounds and while I have more muscle than I had last year, I feel so much heavier. I’ve decided to scale back my eating and stick with fish and occasional piece of venison or raw red meat. I’m not sure what I want to do I’m just going with the feeling right now of dumping things like PEANUT BUTTE ... read more
- Moving on...19 mon
- my big diet switch
I made the decision to leave Raw Food Rehab. It was a long time coming. Early September I made the switch to the paleo diet and low carb in general. My bloated potbelly disappeared and my recovery from athletic training is so much faster. I feel so much better getting my food addiction under control.
Really all around endurance is better. I’m still going to do green smoothies and green juice.
Thinking of renaming my blog so people aren’t misled. Most people think of rawfood as a vegan thing and I eat raw meat. I just like meat and I’d miss it if I couldn’t eat it. I tried ”paleo” befor ... read more

1. For running to work in the rain
2. For riding my bicycle long distances
3. For drinking raw goat milk and buying fresh eggs
4. For wearing vibram five fingers and running barefoot
5. Running during my lunch break
6. Making green smoothies which I haven’t made in a while but I still get teased about it! LOL I bring huge green salads with my cooked side dish and still hear about my green smoothies. I tend to do more of them in the wintertime oddly enough. Have a freezer full of apples off my own trees (well I adopted them as my own hehehe).

- My Week Without Coffee24 mon
- a long series of post-hiatus updates
HELL ON EARTH... actually today was the first day I had cofee all week. I had a tea cup of coffee at work because I’ve worked two double shifts in a row. Today I’m having a cup as well to give me a little more energy for housecleaning and activities.
I think coffee became a true drug for me instead of a pleasure. This week I discovered how truly exhausted I was from overwork and money stress. It was actually a tremendous turn off. It was a turn off to my life and what I let it become. I muddled through work but my nursing job was actually better without coffee... most of the time!

- Modified Green Smoothie Feast26 mon
- one of the most serious posts ever
Need I say more? I had a mini snack feast yesterday. It was almost embarrassing but I stuck with mostly healthy foods. Yet I stepped on the scale today and I was 140lbs. So I just had a ginormous healthy lunch with one slice of bread. My plan is to not be hungry at work. I have a quart of green smoothie that I’m going to tap into when I’m absolutely hungry, well not absolutely but you know what I mean. I’ve also offered up my need to drink diet pop for the poor who don’t have fresh water.
I guess what was really embarrassing about snacking last night was the obsessive back and forth to ... read more
- Getting ready for green smoothie feast round two!26 mon
- Phase two...bringing out the big guns to get rid of bellyfat!
Woke up super early this morning to give my husband a good send off to the junkyard for a cardoor. I had coffee, a spoon of nutritional yeast, organic granny apple, a big banana and a canteloupe. My stomach tried to rebel but this time I chewed three tums (in lieu of bread) and I was fine. I decided to fast from lunch today for spiritual reasons. The only thing I consumed was a cup of decaf with milk and mixed in was nutritional yeast and wheatgerm for fiber. I’m not necessarily going for detox but I will be getting rid of the milk starting tomorrow! No more milk for the rest of Lent, unle ... read more

- Ending My Feast...with 90% success!!! (foods mentioned)26 mon
- end of my GSF
Last night I ended my feast with fruit and a slice of multigrain bread. The bread was gratuitious. I was emotional about an argument between my husband and his best friend. I was planning on breaking my feast anyway because all of a sudden I stopped pooping and my tummy was getting bloated and getting me uncomfortable and depressed.
I’m still fasting from all chocolate and all peanuts, peanutbutters and also I’m adding bread to the list of things I won’t be eating for Lent unless it’s ezekiel bread. It’s all good. I’m actually pleased with the results, physically and spiritually. Once ... read more

- Made it through Day 14 (barely)26 mon
- busy busy shift!
Hi guys. Made it through day 14 (counting backwards) of my green smoothie feast. Almost had a moment of sabotage. I ate some puree apricot and a little applesauce at change of shift when I started getting hungry. Good thing too because I just got home at 12:30 am. Praise the Lord I didn’t eat anything else. The puree is the thickness of a really thick green smoothie so I didn’t feel bad about tapping an emergency source.
Today was a high cal day in terms of green smoothies. I thought I was going to the gym for a long run but I ended up just jump roping at home and doing squat thrusts. I ... read more
- Late nite(mostly) raw snack before my Lent green smoothies26 mon

What I chose to eat when I got upset about my husband not cleaning litterboxes and the cat peeing on my leg weights!!!!
2 kiwi
1 baby banana
3 spoons of kuchela (non raw but made by granny! )
Better than the homemade wheat bread staring me down. I have a green smoothie ready to go in the AM. This shift was rougher than I thought and tomorrow I will bring the other jar of smoothie. Two and a half jars is entirely appropriate for a busy nursing shift when I won’t be having any other intake of food stuffs.

Breakfast:
1/2 cantaloupe
1 baby banana
1/2 cup of applesauce (homemade)
two tbsp nutritional yeast
two tbsp wheat germ
total cal: 341
I weighed in and gained 2.8lbs. That’s ok. I ate a lot of heavy foods this weekend. Last night I went over my calorie budget by 53 cal because I had a cup of homemade popcorn. I usually have three cups but I wanted to stay mostly raw yesterday.
Today I’m hitting the gym and eating the same way. I’m using the nutritional yeast and wheatgerm for protein throughout the green smoothie feast. Lunch will probably be the same meal then I’ll make gr ... read more
- Rawfood on the Road26 mon
- rawsome road trip home back to the land that time forgot LOL
I ate an apple, a bag of Trader Joe’s frozen berries and three bananas bought from two truck stops. The price was right, two for a dollar. I made it back home and I looked at my mom’s homemade bread. For now, I’ve had a cup of homemade applesauce and two tablespoons of kuchela, which is peppered mango skins from my mom’s pantry.
I didn’t drive and I’m a little road weary. Going to go watch tv with my husband. Oh yeah I did have coffee. One cup from Dunkin Doughnuts, black and another from a truckstop with a little caramel. I didn’t put hot chocolate in it. No chocolate, no bread, no nut ... read more

- one of my green smoothie recipes!
Well it’s rawsome to me. It may be even redneck diva. My netbook cord doesn’t work so no video BUT...
Green Smoothie:
frozen spinach
frozen okras
orange-sale
banana- not really sale
handful of kale- ginormous bag from Walmart for $4
aloe
1.5 liters approx=300cal
Plus lots of sale apples! When I visit my mom on Long Island next week, I hope to make tons of videos or posts about going rawfood crazy in the big city. Not really. I’m a frugal penny pincher cheapskate. The okra smoothie is super filling and doesn’t leave me starving which this busy LTC nurse needs.

- My food addiction nightmare
Gosh these last few days have been emotional hell for me. Food addiction has taken a total strangle hold on me and really fueling the fire of depression. It’s a vicious circle. I get sad about money, having to work so much, why my husband doesn’t help around the house,etc.etc.etc. and I eat. Eat eat eat. I’m so insecure about everything that I eat so late at night, like just now. No reason to eat two spoonfuls of light sour cream and a little cranberry sauce. I’m admitting this because I’m at once embarassed and mortified that I’ve been eating to comfort myself. Today I was really depresse ... read more
