My First Blog
During the summer of 2008 I was in Barnes & Noble looking for a book by Wayne Dyer on the Tao Te Ching. They didn’t have the book. Instead another book caught my eye called “Your Are What You Eat”. The book literally just fell off the shelf into my hands with its bright green cover and raw content. This book changed my life dramatically. I wasn’t even looking for a lifestyle change or even a diet to lose weight. It is now October 28, 2008, my 44th birthday and I am writing this blog. I have lost 20 lbs since June through subtle changes in my diet. I am currently around 80% raw and 95% organic. I eliminated fried foods, frozen foods, processed foods all at once at the front end. Then I gradually eliminated wheat, dairy, and flesh. After that I started to eliminate cooked foods. I started to use food as an experiment. I started supplementing with superfoods and drinking fresh vegetable juices. I have added some cooked foods back into my diet along with sheep yogurt and a little goat cheese. I stopped eating out in restaurants. That alone will shift your consciousness. I prepare all of my own food. I have come to realize that this is an act of love. More to come.
