So, week 1 I was down 9 pounds. Week 2 I was down 5 more. Yesterday was weigh in for end of week 3 and I'm down another 3. I hate it has dappered off so bad but as long as I'm loosing and feeling better I won't complain. I've been SO busy buying supplies, reading and researching. I bought a food processor and made Alissa's tahini dressing and raw hummus. I like the dressing. The hummus was a little dissapointing but I think it's just becasue I was craving my red pepper not raw that I use to buy. All in all, I am really liking raw but it's way past time to kick it up a notch. I love all the new things I'm trying and this feeling of being in control and connected. I can't really explain what I mean by that but I think many will understand what I mean. My"firsts" include the following...

ate kale
said no to choclate on several occasions
went 21 days without diet coke (going strong= I don't even miss it)
said no to pizza on several occasions in last 3 weeks (did have the crust of one slice once but I'm ok with that)
bought a food processor
used a food processor
ate organic dandelion (sp)
ate tahini
sprouted chic peas
made raw hummus
gave pomegranate to my family for dessert
soaked flax seeds
bought a used dehydrator
used a dehydrator for 1st time ever
made flax crackers


I'm sure I have forgotten something but bottom line is I have " a new lease on life." More to come soon - Roni
