Fully Raw Kristina's 21 Day Raw Challenge

Fully Raw Kristina's 21 Day Raw Challenge

I have signed up for the 21-day-challenge set up by FullyRawKristina, one of 3 lovely ladies that I follow on YouTube daily.  I have been attempting to go Fully raw since June 2014.  I have had ups and downs, but have become even more determined to stick with it.  This challenge is only meant help replace at least one meal a day with a fully raw meal, but can also be used to add new recipes to your fully raw diet.  

Well I will be one of the ones adding these recommendations to my fully raw day.  My goal is to eat all 3 meals and snacks as fully raw. Again using Kristina's fully raw daily list as ideas for breakfast, lunch, dinner or (in the case of today's recipe) dessert. :)  I'm so very excited to join the rawvolution.

Raw Food Day 2

Raw Food, Who knew?

Ok, So I've decided to start slow, replacing one to two meals or all 2 if I'm feeling it.  I commited myself last June to going fully raw cold turkey.  Which worked at first, then I fell off into old habits (being a vegetarian not to bad).  So I've been toying around with new recipes and watching some inspirational videos and so I'm back at it.  This time I'm going to ease my way into it.  At some point I will do @Rawvana's 7 day reset to Reset my body and mind then make out my meal plans with raw meals and not look back.

So far today:
 I've had a bowl of fruit (mango, strawberries and blackberries) for breakfast.  With a side of lime & strawberry infused (32oz) water.

Lunch:
 I'm looking at a salad mixed greens (romaine, chard, & kale), mini bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and italian dressing.

Dinner:
 I'm thinking Spaghetti squash (especially since DH already tried cutting into it SMH).

Wish me good health

This is weekday being on a raw food diet looks like!

Slacker

WOW I'm such a slacker, I am promising to do better.

I will try to keep up with my diet postings.  Especially since I've made the decision to go FULLY RAW. Yes I said it Fully Raw.  I bawked at my husband when he originally brought this up last year, but after the first 2 weeks I had lost 5 lbs and it was fun.  However at this stage in my journey I have been exercising, but in logging my foods I've noticed I'm no where near the health wagon even though I'm a vegetarian I'm eating entirely TOO much processed foods.

This being said I declare today the start of my raw journey.  I'm going to start with Kristina's 21 day challenge.
