Gearing up... AGAIN...

I finally got access to this blog again, after remembering which email account I used!

I have decided to recommit to eating 100% raw beginning on January 1, 2010. Meanwhile, I'm going to use these last couple of weeks in December to slowly increase the amount of raw, unprocessed foods into my diet so that it's not such a drastic shock.

I think in the past, it's been difficult and discouraging to go through the severe detox I've experienced when I made previous attempts at going 100% raw. I am going to slowly give up caffeine (which has given me the most problems in the past when I tried to stop drinking coffee "cold turkey") and introduce more and more raw recipes. I love green smoothies, so I'm bringing those back in immediately.

I'm extremely overweight and in poor health, and it's all the direct result of making bad food choices. I'm at the point that if I don't seriously start taking better care of my body, that I'm putting myself at risk for severe health consequences.

Today, I'm 244.7 pounds and I'm only 5'2". I'm morbidly obese and starting today, I make the decision to love myself enough to take control.

I would appreciate support very much! :)
