I made some yummy meals recently and I am in the process of soaking + sprouting ingredients for more.
Trying to overhaul my diet and exercise routine has been TOUGH. Harder than ever before. I don't know, maybe it is my age, the point in my life, Violet, work, whathaveyou... but it has just been a pretty good struggle each and every day.
Like I said, I am still working at it though. Each juice or whole food meal is a success and I will take it!!
Eating raw or vegan or just better in general is so much work, so much more than I remembered. It takes all of this time that I took for granted when I reached for processed food.
My friend Michelle, currently on a juice fast, talks about the effort on her blog, the physical and emotional effort that it takes to make a health change a success. It is worth it! But tons of work too.
My cousin, a vegan and mother of three (!) actually gives me a ton of motivation. This lady is drop-dead gorgeous, has a positive attitude, a body to die for, amazing glowing skin and a smile that radiates. I know it isn't all from her diet but it sure has A LOT to do with that. I know it does! That and finally leaving her abusive hubby. I've seen her choose the healthiest choice on the menu instead of going for the yummiest (which is what I usually do when I go out!). I want to have her resolve and her bod. I know I can do it.
Dinner last night: Corn salad and spinach over almond/flax tarts. |
