Day 24
Raw

262 lbs








Great Day! My energy is back up after at least a 80% raw day! And a lot of spinach and other greens.

Good news and bad news... What would you like first the good or the bad?
Bad? OK
The bad news is I weighed myself this morning which broke my fast from the scale! Gosh that is a hard fast!
The good news is, even thought I started my period finally, I weighed in at a 10 lb weight loss! Now, this does not count until next Monday when I officially weigh in.. BUT, yoooo hooooo!

Body
My period is weird and I would be lying if I did not say it scares me a little. It is just weird, lighter than normal and weird... did I say weird? If anyone knows why or if this is how it will always be.. email me privately so we can discuss this personal issue. Crazy random worry is that I will not be able to conceive a baby once I get to a place health wise that I am comfortable with having one... Why do I think like this? LIES all LIES!

Taking care of myself
I did the same thing I did last week on Wednesday. On my way back from Taft to pick up Astrid... this time making sure I had time and better shoes... I went to the park close to the school and walked for about 30 minutes. The wind was so strong today that all of these branches were everywhere. I have kind of a branch "theme" going in my house. I really love interesting branches... So, I got some good ones (some with interesting maybe mini acorns that had opened and look flowerish a smaller one with moss. I put them in the back of my car and when I picked up James, he said "You are so weird", I said "what I have a branch theme in the house" and he said "exactly, that is weird!".:)

The other thing I did for me is bought myself some of the balm I have been wanting from the co-op... I have it on now and it smells really good, I love lavender. My skin is just getting better and better and even some of the "natural" products that I have that I would call half natural... I am just not wanting to put it on my skin. I know my body is getting such pure ingredients... It ups the desire to have only the purest on top of it. I also have just not been using hardly anything. I want all the toxins to work their way out and then leave everything alone! So I wash my face with my favorite Burts Bees orange cleanser and that is about it... Now I will add the balm... Lip gloss ...go. My skin feels so much softer on these foods. The irritated feeling that was there is almost all gone! I think after my period I am going to be very surprised at how great my skin becomes.
My scalp too, just feels hydrated and I can tell it is starting to ease it's way down to my hair. I wanted to buy the mask too, to help the last bit of remaining funk clear out. But I did not have enough $, so I will have to wait. Probably just as well. I still want to keep it simple.
