Healthy food!

Here are some pictures of my goodies:

Not as inspired today

Uggh. Some days I feel really confident in exploring the raw food way of life. Today, I feel confused and flustered. I don't know where to shop. I don't have a lot of money to make separate trips to prepare different meals for myself and for my family. I wanted to go to my local health food store, and then the Farmers Market, but I just don't think I can afford it along with my regular grocery purchases. I need to write out a budget. I am sad and disappointed. I want to do this so bad, and keep racking up motivation, just to realize I may not be able to partake because of financial burden. I don't want to buy a week worth of healthy and raw foods, only to not be able to afford more the next week.

This is causing stress, and discontent. I need to figure something out. If only the family would go raw too.

Inspired

I am inspired by some friends who have and are enriching their lives by going RAW. I do not intend to go RAW 100 percent, but I am starting with breakfast, and snacks. My goal is to just live and eat clean. I want to be untainted, and pure. I want to feel wholesome and proud, but most importantly, comfortable. I want to love life more, and contaminate my children with this zest.

I will be heading to my local Farmers Market on Thursday and will be purchasing some "transitional" goods. I will start out with some light green smoothies, and I'll decide my goal and target from there.

Exercise is also a constant practice, but definitely needs some fine tuning. I will be purchasing a bike next month, so I am thrilled with anticipation. As a teenager and child, bike riding was my number one hobby. My dad dragged me up hills and mountains, but through the course of high school and beyond, I have lost touch with my familiar friend.
