Thank you so much Beau, I love getting encouragement.

Just a quick one today.

3 x green smoothie, banana, mixed berries and baby spinach
1/2 small bowl of fruit salad
2 skinny salad nori rolls
banana
mandarin to clean out the fudge bowl, lol, it's for tomorrow so that's my excuse
dinner will be green salad with mushrooms stuffed with marinara sauce

Feeling great, been out and about today with some of the kids, bought something to eat at about 11.00am (fruit salad) and dd asked if I felt like the other stuff that was around and in all honesty, I didn't, the other stuff just didn't look appealing at all, yeh. James ended up eating half my fruit salad anyway, gotta love that little fruit bat.

Take care all

This is what I made for morning tea today, this is my plate (the messiest) as everyone else had already started eating theirs, it was wonderful.

Fudge with fruit and chocolate and mixed berry sauces.

Thank you ladies, it was delicious.

Today I've had about 12 oz green smoothie and I'm just now sipping on my blended pineapple. juiceup

I've just done 10 mins jogging on the rebounder, eeeeek, yes I know it's not much but it's a start, remember I've not done much exercise recently. I'm really hoping to get up to 30 mins in the next month so I'll say about 12th June. I've also ordered a workout DVD by Jillian Michaels (aka 'biggest loser' fitness guru, lol) for beginners. I've not really seen her on TV as I don't get channels on my TV, lol, but it sounds like what I need.

And thus starts my fitness regime ohyeah

I'm sure within a month or so this will make a big difference to my weightloss.

Today I've also started to apply Jo jo ba oil to my psoriasis so I'm hoping this will help too.

I've got some sunflower crackers in drying now as I can't get hold of the dark flax seed for my flax crackers and the golden flax just isn't the same, they taste off. Does anyone know if flax goes off/rancid over time?

Ok, bye now

Yesterday

Lunch was sunflower crackers with tom
mandarin
brazil nuts
sunflower crackers with tom
Dinner was raw soup - 1 tom, 1/2 avo, basil, parsley, lemon juice (a bit like guacamole but thinnned out more with water) this was really nice as I didn't feel like much after the crackers. Oh, and I warmed it slightly over a bowl of hot water.

Before going to bed I got the worst sore throat, so it's still there a little this morning so I'll probably have more liquids than anything else today.

Today

Cacao Smoothie
Green smoothie
mandarin
about to have blended pineapple
lunch will be carrot and tom raw soup with a little corn (I think)

Feel good today but not great, my throat is still a little sore and my nose is a little stuffy, probably DETOX so I'll ride it through with more liquids.

I must make a consistant effort to drink more water too, because the weather is cooler I don't drink enough water so I must make this a priority especially when/if I eat dehydrated crackers.

I think that's all that's going on at the moment, I hope my DVD arrives today so I can start exercising more and I will rebound a little later when I've done some more h/work.

Take care, bye now

Remainder of yesterday

mandarin
brazil nuts
large garden salad

Today

Cacao smoothie
mandarin
warmed green tea (went to mum's)
Cacao smoothie
dried mango slices (soooo good)
brazil nuts
dinner will be mushrooms stuffed with pesto (warmed in dehydrator) with garden salad

Today I noticed my psoriasis on my arms was really smooth, my daughter and son both said wow when I showed them so it's not just me so I'm posting some pictures so that I remember what it's like and to sort of document the healing progress.

These shots are the same as my body shots just zoomed in and believe me that the one from 1 month raw looks different than it does today, 9 days after but I won't take a new one until the 4th June to see the real difference. I can see a small difference in these photos already.

Not for the faint hearted...

Hi there everyone, still 100% and going well.

Princessbee, thank you for the lovely comments.

Today

Green smoothie
mandarin
two nori rolls - lettuce, tom and pesto
Cacao smoothie (lots)
cashews and almonds
Dinner - salad with pesto

I was feeling fine today until this afternoon and then I started to sneeze and felt all hot and now my nose is stuffed up, call it a cold or detox, I'm not sure but I don't feel great anymore. I haven't eaten much today but I really felt like some comfort food.

I just feel like going to bed Sad

my body did alot of cleansing yesterday and now my 'tuche' hurts (sorry if TMI) must be having a detox time, lol, my monthly is due on Saturday too, oh boy, this is fun.

Take care everyone and thanks for reading

Good morning all, I'm feeling almost human again today.

My nose is still all stuffed up but my body aches have gone and so has my massive headache, ouch, yeh to that one, it disappeared at three this morning, it woke me up and said bye and just went, lol, honestly that's what it felt like. So I'm off now to make a smoothie, ummmm, maybe I'll eat some food today instead of liquids, I really don't feel hungry though.

Ok, bye now
