Forget Sparkpeople....My green smoothie two week tear down 13 y
Big Boxmart smoothies...check the blog tomorrow
Lent is all about the suffering, death and resurrection of Christ. I celebrated my Fat Tuesday by eating some foods I wanted to say goodbye to for a while. Namely chocolate, milk, basically all dairy, bread,etc. My husband and I made a pact to not eat store bread during lent.
Myself, I’ll be doing a green smoothie ’feast’ since you can’t fast on a green smoothie, esp. when I’ll be throwing bananas and wheatgrass sprouts up in there. I’m doing this for two weeks. I already have half a jar of smoothie in the refrigerator. When I get hungry, I plan to sip hot teas. I’ll allow myself coffee ... read more Got bored with sparkpeople but going back 13 y
green bilge water tastes good
It keeps me regulated with throwing things into my mouth. I won’t obsess about it but I won’t give it up. I’ll get back on the sparkpeople track tomorrow. Meanwhile, a resident’s family member came up to me and asked me if I lost weight. She thought I lost a lot of weight and if I was on a diet. Well I got kind of shy and said I’ve been working out a lot. I’ve been trying to drink my green bilge water every day.
My green bilge water is the staple of my life. I had one pint jar of green smoothie today. I had a ginormous bowl of fruit from the salad bar at work. I also ate granola and ca ... read more Tracking foods on sparkpeople and some updates 13 y
quickie updates and off to bed I go!
I’m tracking my foods on sparkpeople now. I do it every day and today I see how being depressed affects my eating. The first day I tracked my foods on sparkpeople, I was totally mortified LOL!
I’ve also being making my green smoothies religiously. BTW, I forgot my carrots in the breakroom icebox but I know those bit-I mean ladies won’t steal carrots :P Today I did NOT drink any green smoothies because I was depressed and in my ’not eating till the hypoglycemic near blinding hunger descends on me’ mode’. Anyway, they’re fresh and in glass jars for tomorrow.
Went to the gym for a quick ... read more Emotioal Eating strikes! I'm officially depressed... 13 y
I need the two Brit ladies to come clean my house!
I just don’t know what to do when I come home and find the house a filthy,disgusting mess. I ate a slice of bread with cheese. Right now I just want to go to bed. The housework will be here in the morning but I didn’t quite eat the way I wanted to today. I wish I had more support at home and my husband would keep his promises.
At least there are two green smoothies in the refrigerator for tomorrow and I’m not buried under rubble in Haiti. Can I get a witness! Okay I’m going to sleep now. visit the page One pound gained for the ho-ho-holidays 13 y
sexy nurses like it raw for the new year
I gained one pound. I am 155. Yes I confess to being a workplace snackmonster. Well not the kind of snacking when I’m under marital stress or work stress. I also ate meat this Merry Xmas. Not a lot but three small bites of my husband’s first ever holiday ham. He promises to make vegetable soup tomorrow. Anyhow, I find that a dirty kitchen is more of an impediment to my rawness than lack of funds. Now that I’ve released all of my financial woes to the Lord, I’m not talking lack anymore. I’m talking a CLEAN KITCHEN for the happy new year!
I’m rededicating myself to releasing the excess we ... read more Round TWO...Not giving up! 14 y
Going raw gangbusters!!!!
I’m buying a bag of nice chips or cookies for the christmas party. For myself:
1) raw eggnog
2) homemade lara bars
3) big green juice
4) and some other raw entree’
I have to watch it with sweets. I made this fruit smoothie too sweet one time and it spiked my blood sugar. Tasted good though :o)
Some raw websites I’m cruising right now:

on the ccc diet for mental sanity while nursing!!! coffee, chocolate and cardio
I’m bored with the same tired green smoothies. I get these good eggs from Walmart (yes I know Walmart is crap but free range hens don’t lay in the winter hardly!). Sometimes I want something different. I guess I need to think outside the box or mason jar.
New grocery store is opening up here. I wonder what they will have in terms of produce. I want to try raw grassfed beef that is organic but not till I’m into my muscle building phase. Right now I’m tearing down to build back up. My mother ate organic beef livers and she’s cancer free.
The residents’ families have been bringing more ... read more Sinus troubles in winter 14 y
avoided doctor visit
I try to think positive about the environment at work but I just have to accept the truth that the air dirty and dry. After suffering with sinus woes over the weekend, I did sme serious EFT, nasal irrigation and I sniffed down a capful of colloidal silver this morning. Wow I coughed up this ginormous goober with old blood in it. I knew I had a nosebleed over the weekend even with the nasal irrigation. I feel so much better now. Perhaps I’ll get a humidifier for my room this week. Otherwise, I’ll keep tapping for health. Oh yeah I think a citrus carrot juice is in order but I need to clean ... read more Hips don't lie...weekend plans 14 y

Vent session
Last night I watched Julie and Julia. It was ok. I took a two hour nap when I got home from work. I was sooooo exhausted. I mean really my boss ordered me to go home cuz she said I was working too much. Indeed I am as men in this area having been losing a lot of jobs. Not the ’hope and change’ folks were hopng for I’m sure! Anyway, I’m the main breadwinner of the family and we’ve had two financial dry spells. I’ve had a lot on my shoulders. My husband and I have fought over money like every other American couple. I wonder if propsperity thinking can succeed with one partner believing and ... read more Oh noes depression struck me 14 y
bad bad today...just have to vent a little
Luckily my eating habits have changed enough over the years that I do not binge eat anymore. Today I just had more sugar than I cared to at work and had a little ice cream at home tonight. Discovered that ice cream is waaaaaay too sweat for me now. Took 3,000mg of vitamin c to take care my awful eating this afternoon. I was terribly depressed to tears about everything especially my job. I just do not like working in a nursing home anymore. Maybe that’s how I feel today and maybe I’ll feel better tomorrow. I just don’t want to give insulin shots and pills anymore. OTOH, I feel that leaving ... read more Wow Raw Egg Nog 14 y

I was trying to make a cake icing and made raw egg nog instead. Just three fresh eggs, honey and cinnamon. WOW I can’t believe how good it is. Cuz the yolks are raw I’ll get the good fat, choline,etc. for my brain. YUMMO I love it. Better than store bought eggnog. visit the page Raw beginning Cooked Middle Raw End 14 y
superhero in training first 12 shift eating lots of rawfoods
It was a carnival of eating today. I did manage to keep a lid of most of my eating. I’m surprised that i’m not hungrier with Aunie Flo right around the block. I’m positive that it’s due to the daily smoothies I’ve been drinking. Today I drank a little more regular coffee and it wasn’t the same. I stopped drinking regular coffee on my regular shift and today I discovered that my body really likes not having it in the afternoon at work. I still like my morning coffee but the days of making straight regular are OVER.
My coworker made me a little birthday cake. I had three small squares and ... read more Weigh Ins and All that 14 y
good night till tomorrow morning!
11/17/09 156# at the gym scale- Aunt Flo’s red ferrari is right around the block too. No major symptoms yet. Glad I bought a bag of organic decaf coffee at Walmart! LOL
I should do measurements too but not tonight. It’s waaaaaay past my bedtime. I will post a weight every week on tuesday since that’s Biggest Loser day. If the firefighter dude goes home, I prolly won’t watch anymore episodes but their weightloss is AMAZING.
My sort of long term goal is to lose 16# in time for Merry Xmas Dec.20-21 and earn my Om Yoga Gym.
Here’s a clip of the Om Yoga Gym:

strengthening spirit at work and being a godly wife with rawfood
Isn’t it amazing that when you ingest stuff totally connected to Mother Earth (greens, farm eggs made by chickens who eat stuff that grows up out of Mother Earth) LIVING FOODS how truly beautiful experiences open up to you? Amazing. I guess it’s one leap of faith I made to change my body is radical ways instead of the slow crawl and having a poverty mentality about my food options.
Also, I come home and my husband was depressed and not himself, not treating me right. It’s as if something really open up after we watched that Fireproof movie last night. Perhaps it’s like the wound debridi ... read more Woke up a little fuzzy headed 14 y
raw nursing school is in session!!!
Woke up a little fuzzy headed because I refused to eat right before bed last night. I stayed up later than I thought I would. My husband and I were watching this movie called Fireproof. We got into this long, emotional discussion about marriage. I had my non-raw meal for today already but I was able to pray and meditate to the Lord for 30minutes.
Did you know that meditation produces stem cells??? Anyway, I feel good and that’s what I want. If rawfoods helps me with me being a good disciple of Christ then it’s fine by me.
So day two, I’m doing smoothies again and portable hand fruit ... read more |
