hahahahaha you used me for my diary!!!hahaha I must go console myself with ice cream. NOT! muahaha I am stronger now! I am all about helping others especially with any raw issue...hm..now that bill withers song is gonna be stuck in my head all day. Good thing i like it. Alright!
So today I woke up feelin pretty good. My alarm woke me up at 9 and i fully intended on getting up...but ended up sleepng unitl 11ish. Oh well, work starts at 12:30 so I'm good. Today is my favorite day of the week, I'm all giddy with excitement. As soon as 6oclock rolls around I'm hitting up my friend and seeing when she's free to join me at the farmers market tonight! FARMERS MARKET WEEEEEE! fun times to be had by all. haha This is when I buy the majority of my food for the week. Last week I didn't buy enough so this time I gotta have a stategy. I have four bags, two per person. I gotta put the boxed stuff at the bottom or things that won't get crushed....lettuce and others on top. I feel like a coach and this is the big day. hahaha.
Okay so yesterday was good and the first day back on 100% raw. I'm not decided on whether having a little cooked meal every week or few days would help me emotionally 'break up' with cooked food, I know it works for some...but I tend to binge when that happens so I'm doing 100%. I'm trying to zap my craving so it's best i think. I weighed myself in at 130lbs, I'm 5', 2 1/2 " and I want to slim down to how i was about four or so years ago when I was swimming and playing soccer and was pretty fit. Well that's my goal. I'm gonna post more positive blogs here, it got pretty depressing when i slipped before in my post so I'm making a fresh start. Today is day two and here I go. I'm sure the next post will be about farmers or something like that...I'm excited for it myself, hahaha wow I'm gonna calm myself down so I don't act like an addict at work....breathe in, breathe out....

haha hello!!!!! Ya when I'm low on money or out of it I think I should go on a fast! haha Right now I have nothing but a few bananas and lettuce and am about to go to farmers so I'm waiting. I ate a few strawberries at work so that and the shake this morning is all I've eaten. I was reading about how raw fooders would rather not eat for long periods of time if they can't get raw food than eat coooked. Your body is ready for that, haha awesome. I'm on friggin day two so I'm not completely there but I so understand that. cool cool cool cool cool cool. I don't know if I've lost any, I weighed myself months and months ago and think I was 135 then....or not, I don't remember. I don't think I'll be weighing myself everyday or week though, I want to go by how I look and feel. Otherwise I'd go crazy since I have OCD. I read that you do to, oomg....it gets intense I don't wanna feed that crazy fire!!!! So I can't wait til we are both at our goal weight!!!!!!!!!!! We gonna do it!!!!!!!!!!! hahahahah I totally can imagine you popping up and smackiing the cooked food away. haha I'd do it for you too, but I'd dress up in some giant smurf or berry outfit...oooooo with a cape too!!!!!! I'll post my farmers experience later tonight most likely!!!!!!!!!! happy happy joy joy! hahahah I can't believe how energetic I am since I haven't really eaten anything....oh and I'm injured too..haha okay I'm outa here, farmers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hellooo diary and hello my beautiful readers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha

Thanks sachelle "awesome day today for you i am sure". haha I laughed and said, yes yes, it was wasn't it now. haha your faith in my hapiness is much appreciated.

Okay so farmers was fun, as always. I wish it were peach season though...I can't wait til there's more fruit available! I got a six of those green squares of strawberries, sooo good. I ended up taking a cardboard container, the berries make up half of it, then i had a messenger bag stuffed with 8lbs of oranges over my shouler and was off to find more goodness. I was like a bulldozer going through the crowd! haha I heard people say things like "seeing all this food people are buying makes me want to go buy something too" oh man look at those berries!" haha i'm all"it's miiiiiine" hahaha I filled up the container with a variety of avocados...two 'ryans' and one 'bacon'(unfortunate name for a fruit....) ahah and lets see...brocolli, cauliflower, spinach, a frozen shot of wheatgrass...i forget what else actually...I have a ton of lettuce so ima make strawberry,banana kale or some other green smoothies a bunch. Oh wow those oranes are soo soo good. At work last night I ate some strawberries then two oranges and two bananas, my friend im working with goes "you just always seem to have fruit!' haha yes. yes i do. Wouldn't have it any other way. Oh so thursday i was just standing at work and something goes haywire in my hip...my bro thinks i maybe dislocated it...never done that before so i don't know how to tell exactly..I've been limping around since then. I was just standing still when i noticed the sharp pain as i said so...i don't know the immediate cause. It was a bit tough limping around farmers though, my friend carried the strawberries walking the 4 or so blocks back to her house so that made it easier. I wish she were a bit more sympathetic honestly, she made a few sad faces at me when she realised she had to stop for me to catch up but didn't offer to carry something til i shoved the cardboard flat in her face. haha whatev, some people seem to have endless movies going on in the head and forget to use their senses every now and then. hm. I want to do a smoothie fast, the plan is for at least two green smoothies everyday, breakfast is always a smoothie. If all my meals aren't smoothies then they are plain fruit or simple salads. I've been having horrible cravings and so I'm cutting out salt, nuts and chocolate for a while, small amounts of chocolate and nuts in the future if i can handle them. I always want to binge when i eat them though so for now i'm going to say adios. goodbye you craving inducers!!!!!!!!!! i say good day! heh heh heh, I feel strong! haha.

Fuzz
I know what you mean when 'meant to live' first came out i liked it but got reeeeeally sick of it, radio music makes me sick anyway. My bro had them on his computer and i played a few songs a bit ago and found they were alright by me, a few were good songs. but...if i'm already over them and have no desire to hear them again. haha. I like to have a constant stream of new music to listen to. If I don't I feel suffocated by all the unoriginal stuff called music nowadays. haha I found an xm raadio station i can stand though for work called 'ethel' haha. So let's see well i just listened to arcade fires cover of 'this must be the place' by the talking heads. good stuff. what are you listening to? ha oh i hope i din't come off as a music snob, im not really i swear! I can appreciate all music, the way it makes people feel is rawkin awesome and whatever makes ya dance is good stuff.haha hm. oh so you feel full from my description of food? haha empty pockets suck man, i had to sell concert tickets i bought so that i could pay rent and FOOD! nooooo sad day. well fuzz...fuzzofuzz, what's up today?

fuzzysox - I live upstate not in the city ... it's not like NYC at all. the good thing is I live in a rural city ... I mean there are organic vegetable farms and farmer's markets all over the place... and also lots of hunters, hicks, meat eating immigrants ... I don't know. that's a snapshot. I'm still looking though! I finally found another Animal Rights activist!
yay

earthangel you are one of a kind, i could just hug ya! haha ya i need all the strength i can get at work, it gets pretty scary sometimes but i figure i haven't slipped for a while so why ruin that? okay so today was my first day back to school from spring break and it huuuurt haha only a month til i'm out and back to my rents house for summer. I'm gonna be having smoothies for breakfast everyday with my mom and sister which i can not wait for. It's literally enough of a reason to live at home for a few months. I'm thinking more and more about going to a retreat somewhere tropical the year after next, yoga or raw or just a foreign country for at least a year. I feel like I need to get out of this country and be a part of another community. Anyone have suggestions of a place?

I can't wait for my box from rawguru comes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait!!!!! i must, I must be patient! Aye...hahah I ordered cocoa nibs, a chocolate/greens bar, tahini and a book with helpful advice for the transition. When will it be here! I love mail in general, well not the junk kind, and oh my oh my...a box with goodies is being sent my way! Oh so tomorrow is farmers market! my absolute favorite day of the week. A friend at work was saying how i should be her nutritionist, so i invited her to join me at the farmers market tomorrow. I diverted her from eating ranch with her carrots at work, gave her a hummus and salsa dip instead. Delicious, of course, better than ranch dressing. She thinks it's to expensive to improve her diet (SAD) so I'll show her the HUGE $1 lettuces and cheap strawberries and oranges. I've been getting those every week and they have been fabulous everytime. I've been craving avocados so I'm going to make this phenominal avocado kale salad i've seen on a few raw recipe sites. It's so addicting so i make enough for one meal at a time since I always eat the whole amount i make. so so good! Alright well I'm off to do some yoga then it's to bed so i can snooze enough to be concious for a test tomorrow. yippie. grinning smiley

i wish i knew a place that sold raw hummus, I love it so much! There were a few weeks last year when I ate it at every meal. I used regular hummus and salsa since there was seriously nothing else for her to eat besides bagels and cream cheese and other food like that.
..on a cold note..it's raining! I'm about to go to farmers and this time and it's just me goin so I have to park real close so I drop off bags in the car and keep going back for more, haha. well today was a good day, lemon/mint water, strawberries and a banana at breakfast, more and more bananasvand an apple, and I just had a salad with lettuce from my garden. I have a dozen or so kiwis left to eat, time to restock!

hey noff! sounds like you're doing well. that's great that you're helping out a friend and showing her how to improve her diet. real, fresh foods taste so much better than fake, chemically altered crappy foods- everyone deserves to eat healthy!

so you're moving to LA soon, huh? i love it here, i've been here for 3 months tomorrow!!! time sure flies! there are so many vegan cafes around here...and juice bars and things like that. i'm broke from the move so i haven't really taken advantage of that, but i can't wait til i have more money so i can check those places out! do you know where in LA you'll be? everywhere is different! i'm in west hollywood and i love it here, there's so much to do and it's close to everything smiling smiley i have friends who live in silver lake and love it there as well, and most of my guy friends live in hollywood and the valley, but that's not as safe for girls and it's not as nice, either. gotta be careful!

anyway...sorry for rambling! have a great night!

people read my journal!? Sweeeeeeet. haha Thanks for all the comments!
Well today was proof that I've come a long way in a few years. Typcally I would have used today as an excuse to get candy and probably a burger or pizza and be a total lazy @%$ the entire day. haha It's funny to hear from friends who did some variation of that today and not have any inclination to join in.
Anyway, it rained yesterday so i couldn't get anyone to go to farmers with me, but i Love rain with a capital 'L' so it was a fun lil adventure anyway. I wish more farms were organic though...it's such a let down to see all this amazing food spread out and then hear "uh, no we're normal" when I ask if they are organic. haha normal, meh, hehe. I didn't buy much but the tangerines from the CalPoly orchards are so so good. I read you shouldn't over do citrus, 2 big oranges a day or so, but I could care less right now. I had a slip up last night, oh no! haha I felt sluggish this morning because of it, but I'm not keeping track of days that I'm raw so moving past it is easy. (...tearing down a huge calendar with the days marked) haha that' fictional, just some comedy to lighten this entry. soooooooo hm,

oh so thinkinraw, I laugh at the thought of being someones hero. haha well I am at work to little kids when they see me scooping ice cream...haha. You ever do yoga? It was intimidating to me at first since the poses were so strenuous...but if ya do a little bit everyday you'd be surprised at the progress you can make! I love reading your journal so I'll keep talking to ya, keep postin!

meow,so I am moving to close to UCUrvine sine my roommate goes there. I was originally going to move to torrance or santa monica but the house situaton works out better this way. I visited a friend in LA and loved it. It erased the stereotype of the annoying 'socal' person for me, I'm so giddy, I can't wait to move! haha well I feel you about the money situation, if you do venture out to a raw restaurant let me know. smiling smiley I love your name by the way

I'll be leavin you more notes, so until I do know this, you RAWK! grinning smiley How do you always manage to leave EVERYONE a message? Whenever i look at the forum to see who posted last for every journal it's ALWAYS you! what a lover, xoxxo

hey love!!! awesome awesome i love the rain too when i am prepared for it haha...i was expecting sunshine today for the beach with my little gals...so i was disappointed to see rain on my way to work haha....but made the best of it and still went on my run this evening in the rain it was amazing!!!

hmm i know the farmers market is amazing but then you get worried is it organic and a lot of them won't be....but i found quite a few in san diego...so that was nice...of course it would still be awesome that they were all organic so i had more of a choice...hey did you check to see if peace pies was at your farmers market??? they would help you with that sweet tooth haha...they make the most amazing devine pies...you will die for them haha i tried a bite at the farmers market last sunday OMG!!! haha
hmm i never hearda bout that citrus rule don't follow it...wher did you hear that?? many people don't follow or believe...especially the fruitarians and look how healthy and well they prosper....so don't worry if you want to eat more then 2 go for it...i know that sometimes in the morning when i first when raw when i was hungry i would eat like 4 oranges or 5 haha...the other day not sure which day but i had like 5 oranges and that was in one sitting lol...so sometimes you just have to go with it an dnot worry about what people believe you know?? some of the stuff that doesn't make much sense as to why is usually someones personal choice smiling smiley
well take care hun and have a great day!!
love earth angel
xoxoxoxoxoxoxxo

hey noff, when you move to LA you'll have a lot more organic options at farmer's markets! i just went to the hollywood farmer's market for the first time today and they had mainly organic stuff, or at the very least, grown w/o pesticides and chemicals. there are tons of them in this area that are regulated...i forget by who but you can go online to www.farmernet.com/ to find all the certified farmer's markets in socal. i'm sure you'll have at least one near you in irvine. everything was so fresh and wonderful, and there were samples and a raw food/sprouted beans booth! i was in heaven. it was so much better than going to farmer's markets on the east coast!

glad to hear you're doing well!
