10 day challenge

Day 69
RAW
242
30 LBS lost!!!!!



HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I lost another 5 lbs, making 30 total! And I am starting my 100% raw challenge. Although my day will probably be closer to 95%! Pretty good start to the new year.
I want to do one or two days liquid too, but today is not the day for that.

I had a really stressful couple of days with my 18 year old brother who lives with me. I am putting his picture above so everyone who reads this will remember to pray for him. I am trying to just stay centered and have peace in the middle of yet another storm. So, pray.
I love him so much, he is just not making it easy right now! ;)

Plans for today
AM
Satsuma/ vanilla smoothie
Watermelon slush

Big salad with black eyed peas... that will make me 95% but it is new years and black eyed peas and the south and good luck... Just have to do it!
