Day 4 – Hooray for Weight Loss
Day 4 I went from 202.5 on Monday to 200 pounds. So glad to see the scale move. I’ve been doing P90X with my baby and all I’d lost in 30 days was 3 pounds, so this is great. I like P90x, but I think weight loss is 80% about what you eat. I’m so…
Day 3 – Driving Away From Fast Food
I lost my mind a little twice yesterday but I woke up the second time. First time was with a little mini Almond Joy. That daggone candy jar again. More will power was on the way later in the day. Oh Fast Food, You almost got me, but I won. Nothing like sitting in the…
Day 2 – No Blame, No Shame
I’m writing this as I start Day 3 feeling great, but a little sore from last nights workout . I think the Vitamin C in this fresh, wonderful grapefruit juice will help. I did well on day two. I’m naming this day “no blame, no shame” because I did slip up and have 2 mini…

I’m a self diagnosed sugar addict. At times I’ve said that I could survive with just 2 a couple 3 musketeers bars per…
Affirming myself
I’m motivated and excited by the changes I’m seeing already. Real, unprocessed food, regular exercise and a clear intention to be health and sexy are companions on the path to an improved me. Today my very being radiates with the authentic love I have for myself. I have found that to make profound changes in…
My head hurts
All my recovering sugar addicts out there know what I’m going through. My head hurts. Not with a typical, throb. I wouldn’t call it a headache. It feels more like pressure. It happened the last time I was 90% raw for a few days and it will pass. Sugar is not my master. Sugar is…
Easter Candy is on Sale
I made it through my trip to Giant without buying any of the Easter candy that was on sale. Oh my goodness, it was a feat. A major feat. The Peeps were calling me. Cadbury eggs were calling me. Wooo! Calling my name people. LOL. I’m very proud of myself and I just had to…
Inspired by Queen Afua
Queen Afua is giving me the inspiration I need right now, before I get lunch. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxdHN_GtC2c] Oh my goodness. I really want to be this wise and be able to inspire people too. There are so many people like me who have suffered from the “Corporate Kitchen” and food addiction and have looked for answers…
