This past Wednesday I decided to do an experiment where I ate my normal 100% raw diet but excluding condiments like herbs, spices and honey. Apparently it’s believed that these substances cause water retention.
I was aware that SALT caused water retention but I didn’t know about the other condiments.
I decided to try it out for [...]
Yesterday I was doing a set of LSE (the Lightning Speed Exercise) from Roger Haeske’s Lightning Speed Fitness Program.

Normally I just do them wherever I find space (I just did a set in our living room a few minutes ago)
But YESTERDAY I decided to do a set in front of a MIRROR (Andrew has a [...]
I get this question asked often by meat eaters:
If eating a plant based diet is so healthy then why are so many vegans still overweight?
It’s a GREAT question and it’s something I’ve noticed as well.
The reason why this happens is because most vegans substitute the VEGAN versions of the junk foods they used to eat [...]

This morning I woke up around 6:15 am (not because of my “alarm clock,” Andrew) because I had to go to the bathroom!
I think this was because I finished eating at 5:15pm yesterday instead of 4pm. Lesson learned!
Today I finished eating at 4pm with some nice cherry tomatoes.
I started the morning [...]

I fell asleep last night right before 10pm and I slept until 5:30am where Andrew, aka my “alarm clock” woke me up because he wanted to eat something.
I find that as long as I don’t have to get out of bed I can soothe him and go back to sleep.
Because I [...]
Yesterday I got an e-mail from my Aunt saying that she wants to do better by eating healthier & exercising more.
She hadn’t started yet so I e-mailed her a few suggestions.
Here is what I wrote to her:

My best advice to you is to start SMALL.
Why not do a mini workout before breakfast each morning?
Here’s what [...]
The “I’m too tired to exercise” excuse is probably the #2 excuse why people don’t exercise.
I should know, I use it!
Well since I’ve adopted my new “NO EXCUSES” strategy, I had to figure out how to get around this one.
Yesterday I felt quite tired because I didn’t get enough sleep.
Despite this I still did my [...]
Yesterday I came up with a system to get in my exercise.
What I do is Roger Haeske’s Lightning Speed Fitness Program.

I find if I do a mini workout BEFORE and AFTER each meal, I am able to get it all in no problem.
I think this can be a helpful system for those who “don’t have [...]
So Monday I posted an article on how I joined that group of GAINERS.
You know that LARGE (pun intended) group of people who gain the weight back after losing it (I gained 16 pounds from my lowest weight on low fat raw–as of Monday I weigh 133lbs).
Well I shouldn’t feel TOO BAD. I mean if [...]
So here are the pictures I promised from yesterday. I wanted to put up more pics but I still need to learn more on how to use Wordpress properly. Anyway here they are:
