Getting past the point of being just raw carious can actually be a little exciting at times. I mean if you just think about the possibilities of self medicating an illness like obesity to becoming mentally and physically healthy again would almost excite anyone I would think. RIGHT?
What I feel is different for me this time around, opposite of last years failure in 2009 to lose weight is the amount of research I am conducting now. I see myself as a raw food student looking up to the real experts to install solid education into my brain so I will not make the same mistakes as last time. I can honestly say that I for one can admit to making a mistake or two in this particular raw food weight loss journey but the difference is I have learned from my mistakes.
I feel that education is absolutely necessary in this approach to seeking better health in what some may say is an alternative lifestyle or way of eating. I personally see things a little different by feeling that God has giving us raw living foods to eat not labs to use humans as experiments. I guess it is no wonder that us Americans have such an obesity problem with all the processed BS we put into our innocent dying bodies starving from malnutrition!
I feel if anything can be considered alternative as far as diet is concerned would be not eating what we was meant to eat and that is healthy raw nutritious living food that promotes health and has healing POWER!!!
So with all this said I am about to embark on the first part of my personal 12 month raw food study. I am about to examine the mental as well as physical changes the first 30 days on a 100% raw food diet will have on my own body. I will not just measure the weight loss in this study but the mental as well as physical changes like energy, sleep, breathing, emotional changes etc that take place while on this lifestyle change.
I will document the changes to reflect any positive or negative things I experience for future study of my raw food 12 month diet.
Now you may ask “why 12 months?”
You may also feel that 12 months is too long of a study to conduct and may feel that I should just shoot of 30 days. But I have to be honest that 30 day studies I have seen just left me wondering what happened to the test subjects after the 30 days was over. I always was left wanting to know more about the characters in awesome weight loss documentaries and where are they now? This is going to be me putting myself on the chopping block and in the position that maybe someone that is going through an obesity issue like myself may find inspiration to be proactive in joining me in my 12 month marathon of eating raw for life long health. I also will have to point out that the biggest benefit to all this is I will become healthy again and that is something you just can’t put a price on.
So the journey begins on the first day of this year and will be completed in 1/1/12 of next year. So join me on Monday and we will get the ball rolling!! Oh yea I almost forgot… HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Or Dare I Say “HAPPY NEW ME!!”

Today is the day folks and I am so excited!!! It has been so long since I have been so energized and excited about anything and the only way I can give you a visual of this feeling I am feeling would be to compare to your birthday.
The first thing that I am most aware of is the fact that I am about to put my body through hell! What do I mean by that you may ask?
