feasting day #2

yesterday i started a juice and smoothie feast!! :) i was planning on starting just a juice feast started that on Monday but was very hungry and shaking. so yesterday i started it over again. one juice a day and 2 smoothies a day. yesterday was incredible. my energy was thought the roof. except in the afternoon. felt like a truck hit me... so i drank some water and i felt better. i guess it was just a little detox. which it is not surprising. i am planning to do this until the end of the month. but probably more. i can honestly see myself feasting until the middle of next month for some reason. well i need to get cleaning. and drink my carrot, apple, beet and rhubarb juice :D ~God Bless~

hayyyyyyyyyyyyy everyone

hello,
no i didn't not fall of the face of the earth..LOL today i am going to see the recruiter. only need to loose about 5 more pounds. I've been good about eating raw. only eat 1 meal cooked a day if that. so i hope to loose the rest of the weight by the middle of may or sooner. other than that i have been good. been studying, running, doing sit ups and push ups. before i join i need to be able to do 50 Sit ups, and 17 push ups and run a mile :) well, i need to get going. ~God Bless~

An Update On My Life

hello everyone,
sorry i haven't written anything here in a long time. i have been very, very busy!! been looking for work. and have decided to join the army. i know is is drastic step but i have been out of a job for about a year. i have talked to my husband about it and he thinks it is a good idea. i will almost be out of training by the time he gets back. :) so, i have been exercising and studying for the entrance test. i also found out that i am not up to the standards in my weight category. so, i need to loose some more weight. so, tomorrow i am going to be starting a green smoothie/juice fast. i am planning on keeping you all updated on my progress. hope you all have a good day.
~God Bless~

lonly, sad and misirable :(

had a good day today, cleaned my apartment, not much of anything today. tonight i am just feeling kinda sad and lonely. even though i talked to my mom and mother in-law on the phone. i guess i just miss Francis. only a couple more weeks until he comes home for R&R. i don't know if i can wait that long i feel like i am going crazy. i haven't heard his voice in over 2 weeks. i missed his last 3 phone calls. i don't want to spend my days waiting by the phone ether. well everyone... thanks for letting me vent... please keep our troops and their family's in your prayers. God Bless

i am still here

i am still here. moving into my new apartment and unpacking, and finally got my Internet hooked up. and all that lovely stuff. i have been extremely busy. raw is going good about 90% raw right now. i went grocery store today and picked up some good stuff, i got a durain, mango's, avocado's, and stuff like that. i also signed up for a half marathon!!!!!!!!!!! it is in Seattle on June 27. i am getting exited about it. well, i need to get going God bless

ahhhhhhhhhh christmas

well, i am at my parents house for Christmas. and not doing so good. but i do have a smoothie for breakfast every morning. right now i feel like crap. always tired, and my throat is sore. been kinda stressed out for some reason. but i know that eating cooked food is not helping. i have done nothing but run around doing stuff sence i got here. i did have a good Christmas though. my mom forgot to stick the meat in the oven so they all ate my food. i had a nut loaf, mashed parsnips, salad, and raw chocolate pie. ever sense Christmas seems like i am going down hill. anyway, i need to get going . God Bless and Happy New Year!!!!!!

today was horrable!!!!!!

well, i had some people come over and move all the stuff out of my apartment. i did not realize that i had to much stuff. so they loaded the truck. and then took it over to the storage unit. and unloaded it. then they where supposed to come back and help me move the rest of the furniture.but it was late and they said good buy. and they don't have time to comeback to help me. sooooo, i have 6 pieces of furniture and my TV still here. so i am going to have a moving company move the rest. it SUCKS because i am supposed to leave to go home for Christmas on Tuesday. everyone please remember me in your thoughts and prayers. god bless.

comming off the cleanse

well, i decided this morning that i am going to come off the cleanse. so i had some OJ this morning. it was SO GOOD!!!!!!!! anyway, i had a good day. did some shopping for the trip back home. my car broke down the other night so i walked probably about 3 miles or so. doing some shopping and window shopping. tomorrow i am planning on walking to the garage to pick my car up. it's about 2 miles or so miles away. i like walking but i miss my car :) i have almost everything packed up to move on Sunday and my apartment is almost clean. (Can't really clean the rest of it until all the stuff is out of here. well, it is getting late and i need to get some sleep. God Bless

some pictures i took last month of my durain :P it was soooooooooooo good

been a long time

been a long time since i posted anything. so i thought i might keep you all posted on my progress.

i weighed myself at the gym the other day and have lost 10 pounds :) my life has been extremely hectic and stressful the past couple of days. been cleaning and packing and am all done with the packing but have quite a bit of cleaning to do. today i was so busy that i didn't drink enough lemonade so right now i think my blood sugar is kinda low. i am getting exited about going back to MD and PA for Christmas. i need to have some work done on my car though because it is acting weird and over heating. but i hope everything works out. my husband reenlisted for 5 more years in the Army. and he is getting a pretty good bonus. :) and we got our choice of duty station. next January we will be moving to ft Lewis, WA. in between Olimpia and Tacoma. we both are pretty exited about that. well i need to get going and do some more work.
God Bless,
Jessica

We got about 4 inches or so. I love this time of year. I set up my Christmas tree. Even though I will be taking it down on the 14Th of this month because of me moving. Tonight I made some more kombucha tea, and bought some lemons, limes, maple syrup and lax tea. i have packed up all my dishes except for a couple of mugs and the stuff I need for the master cleanse.

My Story

Well, tomarow I will be starting 100% raw food. Here is some history about me.

I am 26 years old. and I am over weight, and have been for most of my life. like most people I use food for confort. i went vegitarian when I was 11. and then vegan when i was 21. But, I was eatiin ng lots of non healthy food, but thought it was ok sence I was vegan. I have been raw on and off for a couple of years. I am ready to dive in head first. It's just me know my husband deployed in September. so i don't have any excuses. my goals are to raise my energy and get down to 130 before my husband gets back next Sepember. I was also diagnosed with PCOS in Febuary and they told me that i could not conseve with out medication and i do not want to do that.

wish me luck everyone, have a good day and God Bless
