Season for Detox – Day 11

So for Day 11, I made another kale and tomato salad which I’m coming to love. I included raw almonds and bit of goat cheese for protein. Earlier I had a green salad. I still didn’t feel too hungry at the end of the day but quite satisfied. I can tell that weight is coming off but I haven’t been on a scale for a few weeks. Guess it might be time for that pretty soon.

Season for Detox – Day 10

Ten days – I can’t belive it. Ten whole days of doing this detox. I’ve done several detoxs of seven days, even fasted for 10 days (which isn’t a great thing for general health purposes depeding on how it’s done). But thi sis the longest detox experience I’ve had with raw/vegan foods.

Season for Detox – Day 9

Without this detox I probably would’t be finding these great recipes to try and being so conscious of how these fresh, new foods are affecting my body. Think about joining me in your own detox. Believe me, it’s worth it.

Getting Older

Do you worry about getting old? I know that’s not easy to bring up but sometimes you just have to face reality. At some point, if we live long enough we’ll grow older and eventually we’ll get old.

The Belly Fat Issue

Have you tried to get rid of fat about the belly? I know, don’t moan. Millions of us (seasoned women that is) have to be very careful about gaining too much fat in this area. Yet, being menopausal seems to bring on the problem more than ever. But that doesn’t mean you can’t prevent the problem or that you have to keep belly fat if you already have it.

Season for Detox – Day 7

The first full week of the detox has been completed. This is becoming an enjoyable experience. What I feel after one week is less brain fog. It’s good to feel that I can remember things better, all by letting my body get cleansed.

Season for Detox – Day 6

Okay – for day 6 of my detox I almost wanted to go out and buy a bag of potato chips; the well-baked, salt and cracked pepper type that gives a great crunch. But I resisted and I’m glad I did. So after that little crisis I got into my huge bag of baby carrots to get my crunch.

Season for Detox – Day 5

Five days in and I’m feeling fine! It’s getting more exciting to try new foods each day on this detox. One thing I’m learning is to have something to eat before you get too hungry, and eating raw vegan will let you get hungry more often than eating animal proteins and fats.

Season for Detox – Day 4

Tiredness finally hit this morning. I slept to almost 10 a.m. That felt good. Feeling tired can be a part of a detox. The body is working hard to shake off the toxins taht embedded in the cells. I can apprecaie the process.
