my triumph over my self

Being raw is a choice. I choose this for good feelings, good health, good life, being good was never so clear to me. Raw is good for me, it may not be for others. I and I know it is hard for raw folk to feel so good and have others chose something other than what makes us feel good. I try so hard, as hard as it may be not to get caught up in others choices. If I know someone having an issue, I will suggest, but raw is simply just for me. Now I struggle with this raw thingy due to I am also a human so tied to my cultural expression. I use food, and cooked food to do almost everything. Well, now for my last nine years I have been working this raw thing into my life, my families life and that of my friends even. Here something I just wrote after a party, that was great but filled with cook delight. I was so proud of myself.

I was so proud of my self, I went fly fly fly, girl I was gorgeous. I had on the my littlest cutest thing I owned, my make up was flawless, my skin is flawless these days as I eat well and oil pull day and night. I did not eat any of the wonderful homemade delectables. I had my own raw ones and I ate very little of that. One I was not hungry, so I want to honor that in myself. Two I always get uncomfortable in a group, I like personal one on ones better or two people at the most, but there were like 20 woman. I was really at my best and felt so warm and comfortable. So not eating was not so hard. I had a win win day. I am off again with my elimination, Saturday I went five times, Sunday not so much and not so many eliminations. When you are raw you go at least 3-5 times a day. I fell off with the water, water is key at these times. My menses is due. I did meet my goal of being under 175, I am 174 and that is with out any elimination and pending menustration. I again thank you you for bearing with my panic and giving my rise and strength, through you reminding me I had it in me.

The raw Journey

I have been on this raw journey this year a decade. My moment to raw has been slow. I thoroughly enjoy raw. I can not explain the movement for me and its snail approach. I have reached and and become friends with some of the long lasting raw people in the movement Storm and Jinjee. I am attracted to raw people who have families. My family is well involved in my journey and their own journeys. I have learned so much. Raw is best, but how to function virtually alone in a society of cooked food eaters and lovers.
