Get the Glow June 12, 2007

The first thing my friend (whom I haven’t seen for a few months) said to me when we saw each other on Sunday was …. Ohhhh….you’re all glowy. What are you doing?  - Was I thrilled!

It’s hard for me to personally see a lot of progress, as of course I see myself in the mirror daily. I do really feel awesome though.

I just picked up Sarma’s raw food cookbook yesterday, and I must say the recipes look pretty awesome. I’m currently drinking the grape/fig cleanse shake. It’s quite good, but a tad too sweet for an everyday kinda drink. I’ve had a completely raw day, primarily due to my weight gain the other day that is stubbornly staying put.

I’ve mainly been snacking today, no green smoothie as my kids are sick. They’ve been up all night, and I was just too tired.

So, I ate a bunch of watermelon(probably about half a whole watermelon), about a 1/4 cup of gogi berries, some “fettucini alfredo” from Alissa Cohen’s book, a bunch of fresh blueberries, now I’m having the above mentioned grape/fig shake.

I did walk on the treadmill today, but I decided to try one of the built in programs. It was 30 minutes, and way too easy for me. The distance was just under 1 mile, but it did bring me up to an incline of 4, which I’ve never tried before. I may try one of my Yoga video’s tonight. We’ll see.

Weight this morning was 223.8
