Day 9 And Salads

I'm sorry I don't have a picture today, because I have been making some beautiful salads with the sprouts I displayed on yesterday's blog post. I have also been adding wheat grass to my salad. There is something to be said about living food. I have been experiencing a sense of euphoria after eating them, almost as if I could levitate. David Wolfe says, "If you want to live a magical life, you must eat magical food". He is so right. Raw food is magical. I have started a patio garden and I am growing spinach, lettuce, parsley, lemon balm, rosemary and chamomile. As soon as they are big enough to photograph, I will post them. I would like to add some magical beings in my garden to give it that special touch. I can't wait for the lemon balm to find it's way into my juice. I'm a little hungrier today than I am normally. I think all the different flavors and textures have really awakened my appetite. I am being extra careful to let it get out of control.

Day 8 and Sprouts



I love sprouting. Today I have a couple of jars ready to make a living salad. I'm not sure what raw soup I will have tonight. I have so many recipe books to choose from. I 'm sure I will come up with something luscious. When I started my first Master Cleanse and raw food transition a year ago, I weighed 174 pounds. Today I weigh 143 pounds . I am so happy to be in control of my health and well being. Living raw foods have changed my life.

Blessed be,
Tuliza

Day 7 And No Orange Juice

I am all done with the orange juice for now. I have been drinking apple juice and water. I have been experimenting with different raw soups. Today I had celery soup (Mmm...good). I am getting ready for the juice feast by not stirring up my appetite too much. Today I read Raw Juices Can Save Your Life, by Sandra Cabot MD. In her book she provides a juice recipe for many diseases and conditions. It's a great book for those who are not sure about juice combinations. I have already started making a habit of dry skin brushing in the morning before a bath or shower. My skin is so smooth after just two days.
