This will probably be the last post I do about this fast, besides an update on what weight comes back.  Just wanted to share how my day went.  In the morning I had a couple of cups of coffee (I think it’s funny that I never did quit and everyone says you should) and then [...]

Did I lose on the fast?  I was 151.2 the day I started, and today I weighed in at 142.8.  That is a loss of 8.4 pounds in 7 days!  Now some of it is probably water weight and will come back on, but hopefully that is just 3 or 4 pounds.  We’ll see.  I [...]

I have been trying to figure out what my new direction will be as far as what to eat after the juice fast.  With the coming week, I am just going to take it slow and listen to what my body tells me it needs.  I think I am over-thinking the breaking the fast thing. [...]

I did my run and it thoroughly sucked!  I am on Day 5 of this juice fast and the way I feel about it today is – over it!  I am not going to quit, but I am not enthused about it AT ALL right now  Maybe it is just the tiredness talking, but this [...]

I dropped the ball on the food and budget updates!  So here is one for two weeks instead of one.  On food we spent $178.70, and we went out to eat once spending $30.  I’m kind of shocked that we didn’t spend too much!  Though I guess it is possible that I missed a receipt [...]

So let me apologize first if you’ve left a comment and didn’t get a response back that was separate from here on the blog.  I’ve been replying and I thought it was via email and here on the blog, but apparently not.  So how does this work???  How can I reply via email and also have [...]

I have a lot of domestic things I want to try, and things I need to finish.  Like M’s loft bed – I need to get that done before the weather turns to total crap and I can’t work on it at all!!  I’ve been reading the book Nourishing Traditions, which led to a bunch [...]

  It’s been a while…I’ve missed you  I haven’t made a batch of kombucha in over a month!  I pulled my last bottle from the fridge so it was time to get it going.  Can’t wait!

Just wanted to share some pics  

We made these cookies last night.  SOOOO good!!  We didn’t have any butter but needed cookies, so I was glad to have my copy of Vegan Cookies Invade your Cookie Jar on hand.  We did use a little heavy cream instead of the non-dairy milk.  Otherwise they are vegan, and delicious!!  As we were flipping [...]
