Food Log - Day 2

Check out Dr. Hulda Clark's Book 'A Cure for All Diseases' I read it in 1 week. Her philosophy concludes that all disease is caused by two things; environmental toxins that accumulate in the tissues (ie household cleaners, charbroiled meats, leaching plastics, ect) and parasites. After my little parasite experience I am really interested in this! She also did groundbreaking work on object frequency. She found she could actually measure the frequencies of difference viruses, bacteria, parasites, and toxins. Her frequency work has lead to today's various zappers, but more about that later...

Here's what I ate today:

Figs

pineapple parsley juice, of course ;)

apple lemon ginger juice

watermelon

red grapes

okra

Sarah's easy peasy Anti Pasta Recipe, yumm!! (Thanks Sarah!)

.84/9/7

1934 cals

.Things are going well. I'm glad I love juices because they help me get in the extra calories I need for the day! I feel fine, I woke up a little easier this morning which is nice because I have been really struggling in the mornings! I feel a little bloated at times but over all I feel good!

.Tomorrow I'll do a short 2mi run.

80/10/10 Food Log

Since I am experimenting with 80/10/10 I thought I would track my daily intake and percentages. I really want to give this a serious effort so I am using fitday.com to calculate my intake. I love the way I feel eating mostly fruit! It's just so nice and simple and everything seems to just "click" for me.

.

I have a new obsession with okra. I just can't get enough! I slice it into horizontal slices and eat it with lemon juice. I am still transitioning so I sometimes add a pinch of sea salt and nutritional flakes. I know, I know, salt is definitely NOT part of the program but I am having less than 1/4 tsp per day...

.

Today I had:

pineapple parsley juice

figs

apricots

okra

asparagus

mixed green salad with 1/2 avo and celery - lemon juice, pinch of salt, and nutritional flakes as dressing

.

82/9/10

carbs/protein/fat

1803 cals

.

I'll try tomorrow to eliminate the salt and nutritional flakes :)

Enchanted Rock

Here are some pictures from our most recent adventure to Enchanted Rock.

It was very hot, over 100 degrees!

Enchanted Rock is very steep and gives quite the work out! All the rock is pink granite. In the evening the rocks sound like thunder - supposedly from the heat of the rock clashing with the cool night air. The natives thought the sound was coming from the Gods, thus the name Enchanted Rock.

The steep climb

If you look very closley you can see Banana Man and I to the left at the base of the rocks. It gives some perspective at how massive the granite rocks really are!

After a 4mile hike in the sweltering heat. We had yellow watermelon for Banana Man's dad's 60th B-Day, happy Birthday Steve!

I felt really good physically. I thrived on 2.5 quarts pineapple/parsley, lots of grapes, yellow watermelon, and when we got home I had okra (my new fave food) with lemon juice and simple nori rolls - so delish!

Checking in

Hi everyone! I've been MIA over the last month so I thought I'd share some pictures of what I've been up to.

Say hello to my little friend

Hello all! Sorry for neglecting you for the past month! I've been busy cleansing, swimming, eating fruit, and enjoying summer!

.

I'm sure you are all curious about my friend here.

.

During the month of June I was battling the most intense cooked food cravings I've had since going raw. I was actually eating cooked foods several times per week. I couldn't help it - I had to have cooked food! Something was wrong, I felt moody and out of balance but I thought maybe something was wrong with me as a person. Maybe I was just a failure.

.

I was discussing my situation with a co-worker and she said 'maybe you have parasites'

Oh my goodness, Duh! Why didn't I think of that?!

.

So I asked one of our practitioners to test me and sure enough - PARASITES.

Specifically, flukes, the bugs that most commonly live in the liver/gallbladder/pancreas/spleen. So I started my cleanse using paracidin and gallbladder complex.

.

As a side note, I did this cleanse last fall with out any problems.

.

About mid-day on day 8 of the cleanse I started to get hot and cold flashes. I felt terrible. My skin was extremely sensitive to the touch. I had no idea what was going on. I worked with a co-worker to align my gallbladder meridians but to no avail. I felt like crying and passing out at the same time. By the end of work I felt like I was dying. I had to really focus on not falling asleep on the drive home. When I finally did get home I immediately collapsed onto my bed and started sobbing. I fell asleep about 2 seconds after that.

.

I woke up around 11:45pm burning hot. Banana Man was worried about me and we took my temperature - 102.1

.

I knew I had to do an enema asap to get the fever down and sure enough, it went down to 101. I went back to bed and woke up in the morning with a fever still around 100. I hadn't eaten anything in several hours so what came out in my morning enema was very clear! With the first flush I expelled a ball of mucous about the size of half a golf ball. With the second flush I expelled what you see pictured at the top of the page. A big ass worm. He was dead of course. I still felt so terribly sick that I didn't feel disgusted. I just was like 'wow, so you're the little guy causing all the trouble.' I would guess that he was about 6-7 inches long when fully stretched out. He was clear so you could even see little sections of food that he had eaten. By the end of that day my temperature was back to normal and I have felt fine ever since. I still have days where I crave cooked food but not as intensely as before.

.

What a journey indeed. I've passed more mucousy stuff and what appeared to be another worm in one of my morning bm's. I still have more cleansing to go and probably more parasites to expel...

Return of 811

I heart 811. If you have no idea what I'm talking about click here and here.

Feeling the mango loooove. Seriously, so so so so good! Banana Man and I split a Panama Melon the other morning for breakfast and WOW, me likey. Must remember to go to Whole Foods to pick up 10 more!

I've also been making yummy 'ice creams' with my new and fabulous Omega juicer. Just pop frozen fruit down the chute and voila, you've got the best tasting sorbet of your life! Mango-blackberry is my current fave.

I'm still totally obsessed with Watermelon juice and I am so grateful that Central Market has quarts upon quarts made fresh daily. The price is totally reasonable too.

Experimenting with mostly fruit has given me the best BM's of my life. AWESOME. Why is it that a great BM has the ability to totally and completely brighten one's day?!

Exercise to come.

I've actually been feeling, dare I say it, sick over the past few days. Maybe extreme fruit induced cleansing paired with high mold counts? Who knows but this body is ready to start moving again.

Yay 3-Day Weekends!

WOW, what a difference a 3-day weekend can make! Banana Man and I had a great time eating, dancing, galavanting, and soaking up the sun! Things got a little crazy on Sunday night, as you can see...

I honeslty believe that one of the best things in life is a night out dancing with your girlfriends!

I made my famous crab cakes. We had them over fresh greens and sprouts. I am really loving simplicity right now. My salads usually consist of mixed greens, sprouts, hemp seeds, bee pollen, micro greens and a dressing of lemon juice with a dash of nutritional flakes and pink salt. That's it! So simple and oh, so good!

.

Breakin it down.

Banana Man and I went to dinner yesterday night and look who we ran into! A beautiful brindle Great Dane name Rocco. He was a rescue from the local Great Dane Shelter and such a gentle giant. Look at the size of his paws! We'll have one of our own in the next 6-12 months!!
