30 Day Raw Food Challenge Nov 1

Hey Ya'll,

So happy that the numbers are climbing to join our Raw Food 30 Day Challenge!

I have shared with some who were reluctant to join, that you can set your own boundaries and limits. Instead of going 100% Raw, try 80%. Find what works the best for you and still have the goal of incorporating more and more raw foods.

Choose Organic- We are cleansing and If it's Organic "No need to Panic", we are flushing toxins.

Some have been Raw- Vegan, others will have Raw yogurt and Raw cheese. Do some research and find what it best for you. There are some great raw food vegan nut cheeses that are awesome...I will share as many recipes as I have time to share.

Lately, working as a full time Mama, I have really been slacking on my "Livet" aka Diet. I became a caffeine junky..blah!!!! Feels great initially, but the lows are horrible and keep you wanting more when you start to feel that plunge. For the past week and 1/2 I have gone cold Turkey on the caffeine. It was soooo brutal at first, but I am now feeling a little normal.

In my next Blog, I will set up menu ideas. Please share any you might have also. There is also some awesome books out there. Although I tend to get a little Gourmet with it..Doug Graham, the Author of "80 10 10", advocates a low fat Raw Livet (Diet). I have researched him, know about him, but do not have his book...but will get it.

Sprouting is super easy and fun, and it is one of the most powerful Live foods we can get.

Oh, and about Thanksgiving, as many of you mentioned, it is entirely up to how you decide to have your day. I do recommend that after you have been cleansing for such a great time, that you do not put your body into food shock with indulgences.. It will not feel so great I promise...

Thank you all for inspiring me. I am really excited and so thankful that we have each other...
