Today marks the first anniversary of my journey back to my 100 raw & mostly vegan diet.
6/18 marked the 4th anniversary of discovering hemp protein powder and starting on this raw journey.
7/28 will mark the 4th anniversary of when I plunged in earnest into my journey with raw diet which at some point became 100% raw, and then reverted back to high raw.
To say I am profoundly grateful for the gifts this lifestyle has brought me is an understatement.
Since July 19th, I have eliminated 60 pounds from my body.
I have more energy.
My mood is generally more sunny, content & even.
I am happier, even more creative, far more clutter free in general & living a fuller more delightful life.
In this time I have discovered the joys of buying local foods, visiting the farmer's market regularly & having a CSA farm share.
I have also tasted the bliss that is Cacao, Durian & Kale Chips (not all at the same time mind you).
Life is so bright I gotta wear shades!
I look forward to seeing what the next year of rawness brings, and am committing today to the goal of another year of 100% raw 99.4% of the time one day at a time.
Some highlights I already know about...
Raw Spirit in Sedona AZ in September (my husband and I are going this year!)
Our monthly Raw Maine Meetups on the 3rd Sunday @ 5.
Apple picking in the fall.
Pickle making with cukes, dill & garlic from my own garden.
Visits with some of my raw friends and many other adventures yet to be discovered!
