My name is Christina and I am 37 years old. Most of my life, I was pudgy and "overweight" which most people would term as "curvy and full." I think in alot of ways, that bothered me more than saying "FAT." I always lost the firt 5-8 lbs but never could get past that point. I was either lazy, pms'ing or emotionally eating. On top of struggling with weight, I had acne issues. Now, I am greatful I have never had boils but the lingering pimples around the chin and forehead. My health issues don't stop there and I am feeling exposed writing this all out to the entire world but I AM READY TO BREAK FREE!
Back to my list of health struggles, I was bulimic for a better part of 15 years of my life. Always going up and down the scale and that is part of the cycle of losing and gaining those few pounds. I always felt relieved purging but then I'd struggled with the intense hunger thereafter....
I am now 37 years old several weeks ago, I came across a site of RAW FOODS. I think it is a new site but I saw pictures of some celebrities that have been raw foodists for sometime. I've always admired Demi Moore and she looked radiant!!!!!!!!!!! WOW, that was my pivotal point in wanting to look good. If you visit the site RAWOLOGIE, you will see her there. I'm going to start with making the RAW chocolate brownie since the recipe seems easy, simple and yummy! So yeah, I'm very excited and ready to do this for ME!
Thanks to my wonderful husband, I was able to purchase the 4500 Vitamix blender, 5 tray excalibur dehydrator ( 4 tray is not appropriate for raw foodists) and "Living Raw Food" by Sarma Melngailis. I've included the links in case you want to find it immediately for your convenience. Sarma is a beautiful blonde gal who has an amazing RAW glow and beauty. Personally, I am not the hippy type nor do intend to become. I have nothing against hippies but I'll be honest, I follow the latest fashion and I wear leather. I repsect animals but I don't hate anyone that wears it too. I know alot of people think this raw food lifestyle is for hippies but that's changing because this lifestyle is about becoming healthy and getting the body you want!
I'm going to start experimenting with RAW food desserts to alter my craving and satisfy it for the now. I don't know if I will be 100% RAW for the rest of my life. I'd rather take it one day at a time. So RAW BROWNIES for lunch today :-) This chick is happy!!!! You can get the recipe at RAWOLOGIE is you scroll down about halfway! Christina is doing the RAW FOOD diet/ lifesytle and watch me reach my goal weight!
