Day One - Off to a Great Start

 Today is 'start day' and this week will be the most taxing.  In the past, the first three days are the worst but then the body adjusts.  Two years ago, I broke out in a rash after a week.  It was my bodies way of getting rid of all the waste products and toxins.  Over the next three days, it is essential to make sure you eat enough real food and hydrate sufficiently.  I like to drink water with a splash of lemon juice for an antioxidant boost.

  As we continue our journey, I will break each day's postings into two sections.  The first section will include advice and instruction based on my past experiences with raw food detoxification.  In this section, I will include material from other experts (i.e. Natalya Rose and others).  I will also include useful resources to help such as instructions in Meditation and other tools.  The second section will be my experiences since the previous posting.  When I get tired and bitter and angry because I can't have a steak - I will tell you.  If I fall short of the day's goal - I'll tell you that as well.  As I said, it is not about being perfect but making sustainable changes and keeping them for the majority of time.  We are not going to be perfect.

   Day One - Off to a great start.  Expecting to be a little slower hitting the blocks tomorrow but will start the day right with minimally-cooked oatmeal, slices of apple, and a nice glass of tomato juice.  I'll have to pack a lunch and will include large leaves of romaine with crunchy vegetables (green or red pepper, onion, and avocado - maybe some raw cheese) wrapped inside.  Romaine leafs make great wraps.
   
    Enjoy the Day!
