A Raw-Vegan Journey

Once again, my entries here have been scarce lately. Why? I've been blogging on a 7-Day Raw Challenge blog board hosted by The Garden Diet. I will begin transferring some of those entries here, to bring you up to speed with my life since I last posted. I will blend old posts with current ones I write.

Sept. 10th Entry from the 7-Day Raw Challenge Blog Board



Hello Everyone:

It's a pleasure to be traveling this journey with you. While the majority of my diet is raw -- and has been for a while -- I still haven't quite "nailed" the all-raw lifestyle, so to speak. However, since we grow through new experiences, I am looking at the upcoming 7-day Raw Challenge as another opportunity to grow on various levels.

What has me most excited about this is that my husband has agreed to come onboard and attempt the challenge, too. (Some days, it's tough co-existing with him as we embrace different diets!) :-) The fact that he is willing to really delve into this challenge truly warms my heart. Already, I can feel progress.:-)

I expect to see transformations on many levels this next week. I'm sure I'll meet lots of new friends here, too.

Hugs and Prayers,

Penny

Here's a reply I received that day from a participant of the raw challenge whom I now call my friend.

Penny,

I am so happy for you as I am experiencing the same progress in my own home. My husband and I are vegan but he is not at the same level as I am concerning the vegan diet. I asked him if he wanted to join the 7-day raw journey with me and he said yes. I was surprised but I am excited.

The fact that he and I are usully not eating the same weakens me on my own journey to consuming raw 100%. I am also hoping that because he and I are eating 100% raw my two-year-old will come on board.

Peace,
