Well, I turned 43 yesterday! Hannah threw me a fun surprise party...an outdoor picnic, but it SNOWED the day before, & was sooooo cold yesterday, so we didn't finish outdoors!
I was given 43 gifts, (she's so sweet, she got everyone in on it! Even the kitties & her favorite stuffies!) & one of them was a plate fulla raw treats, as well as a raw recipe book! Woohoo!
I've been only about 60-75% raw, & feeling the difference, big time, so it's time to get back on track! I've been reading more & more about juice feasting, & am seriously eager to pursue this, I've been feeling rather toxic lately (having to take painkillers, & I have a cold right now) & am eager to get back to improving by the day!
I figured out that the last 12+ pounds that left my body (when I'd expected to have gained, or just stayed the same, based on my lack of exercise & eating too many unhealthy foods) happened shortly after when I 'd begun to ingest a few tablespoons of coconut oil a day! (As well as more consistant oil pulling...hmmm...)
The more I've read about coconut oils, the more impressed I am with their benefits. Some brands definately taste better than others, though! The one I love just off the spoon is from Omenga Nutrition, the best deal on the one I use for my skin & any cooking Hannah does is by Wilderness Family Naturals. I'll try to post some links later to the articles about the benefits of organic virgin coconut oil, when I dig them out.
I finally have my living room set up to exercise! Even with this yucky cold affecting my breathing, & how fatigued I still am, I begin again today! & my upstairs neighbour has an electric treadmill in the laundryroom & is willing to let me use it, so today's the day I start on that, too! And when it warms up a bit, the daily walks are going to happen, as well!
{Hold me accountable, people! *grin* }
