All in all yesterday was a pretty good day.  I had periods of dizziness and disorientation  but they were intermitnent.  I still have jaw pain which sometimes gives me an ear ache.  If this problem is still there next week I will go visit the doctor on Monday.  I cannot beleive its already been 8 days and I can also not beleive that I still have 12 more days of this to go!  I am told around day 10 I should feel pretty awesome and all the random wierd feeling I have been getting should be gone.

I think today I am going to share my blog with more people.  Those that are reading are a few select people.  Now that I am feeling better I am going to spread the word!

I finally got my Kale yesterday!  So happy!  I bought 5 bunches.  Yum yum.

A few folks have asked me where I get protein from.  Calorie for calorie, green veggies — such as romaine lettuce, broccoli, and kale — have twice as much protein as steak. As vegans and vegetarians have known all along, a whole foods, plant-based diet provides more than adequate amounts of protein. A combination of vegetables, legumes, nuts and whole grains can and do easily provide for our protein requirements, there is no ‘need’ for animal proteins at all.




I am slightly nervous about the "after" fast.  I feel like I will be prepared to start my plant based diet, but am still wary I will slip back into my old ways.

Everyone have a great day!

  2. Read day one when my cousin passed it along, reading during my breaks...love it. Will catch up to date by end of day. Saw a documentary the other day & have been reading about plant based eating. All makes sense. I've been eating like crap the last 2 months & feel horrible. Getting back on track! Thanks for sharing!
