~Re-inspired~

I'm soooo re-inspired to STAY raw, & am really LOVING the way I feel & how it affects my life! I fell on Friday, (wearing old sandals in the snow, silly me!) & injured both knees, & at first, I was really frustrated, because I've been wanting to exercise MORE, not less!
But then, it somehow spurred me on to get creative, & to not allow ANYTHING to ever hinder me again!!!
I'm so overwhelmingly eager for my FULL return to HEALTH!!! & God's made crystal clear to me what I need to do to obtain it...so to allow anything to hinder me is foolish, & I cannot allow even one day to go by without moving in the direction of RAWstoration!
So I'm finding ways to keep improving my fitness level, & will have to stick to running, swimming, climbing mountains in my dreams....for now!
I'm so excited, I FINALLY have my camera working again...my computer won't download pics still, though, so I'm going to get Shannon to help get them posted! & she's coming into town this week & is going to lend me her dehydrator!
I'm also starting a video log (Vlog!) of this journey (hopefully tonight, once Hannah's in bed), & I'll be posting them on YouTube (by invitation only, for now, until I'm 75-100 lbs down...I will post the link here, it just won't be available to the general public...)
It brings me such joy that my sis is exploring the raw lifestyle, too! Can't wait 'till she comes to visit, this time we can share recipes, & get healthier together! We'd planned on it at Christmas, but it didn't happen...it's not the easiest time to give up all your comfort foods, & familiar traditions...but it's the last Turkey dinner I know I'll ever eat!
(My next thanksgiving & Christmas feasts will be 100% raw, & I'm already gathering & testing the recipes I'll be using!)
Saw a really funny, cheezy, but VERY inspiring video today...I'll see if I can make the link work, you gotta check it out!

(Woohoo, it worked! Enjoy! & soon, I'm going to post a bunch more raw video links I've been finding with the other ones over there off to the left...)
I just can't get enough of salads! & guess what I had for breakfast this morning (after oil pulling...) a big bowl of RADISHES!!! It's what my body wanted!!!
Have a really rawlicious day, everyone! Enjoy the bounty of God's creation! He made the most perfect foods for us, please don't settle for less!!
Your body will THANK you!!!

Hello,
My name is Prabhu, I work with Dhrumil at welikeitraw.com
We’re collecting the contact emails of people in the raw food community and I was hoping you could send me yours. Would you mind shoot me an email at prabhu@dboost.com
The reason I’m asking for it is that Dhrumil and the team at We Like It Raw are trying to unite all the bloggers with a common sub-site.
Thanks!
Prabhu
