JWLJ Episode 2: Food Week
This week, I examine my eating habits a little more closely. I had a really bad week..it felt like a relapse of what I used to eat and ended up gaining, not losing because of my actions. The following week, I went back to basics and portioned my food again..lost most of the weight I put on and had a better understanding that I still have a long way before I change my ways food-wise. Please send me messages, comments and suggestions on what you eat or what to eat.
Raw Food Recipe ~ Ginger Salad Dressing
I have always loved the ginger salad dressing at the restaurant Benihana’s. This is the raw adaptation of that same salad dressing. 1/4 cup raw catsup ~OR~ 2T tomato diced, 2T sundried tomato diced, 1 date diced add the 1/4 cup water to this and leave soak. 1/4 cup grated ginger root 1/4 cup minced celery 1 cup minced onion 1 clove garlic minced 1 cup olive oil 2/3 cup apple cider vinegar 2T + 2 tsp nama soyu 2T + 2 tsp honey 2T + 2 tsp lemon juice 1 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper ~Since adapting the raw food lifestyle 10 months ago, I, (Laura) have released 34 pounds. Currently I am 75% raw and still in transition. A medical diagnosis of severe anemia and leukemia prompted the change from a vegetarian diet to a raw food vegan lifestyle. I have experienced immense improvement in lab/blood tests as well as in energy and overall health since switching to raw foods. UPDATE: The anemia is now reversed and cured!!!~

Fall is such a beautiful season and harvesting the fruit off the land is the best way to go for raw living. ~Since adapting the raw food lifestyle 4 months ago, Laura has released 34 pounds. Currently she is 90% raw and still in transition. A medical diagnosis of severe anemia and leukemia prompted the change from a vegetarian diet to a raw food vegan lifestyle. Laura has experienced immense improvement in lab/blood tests as well as in her energy and overall health since switching to raw foods. UPDATE: The anemia is now reversed and cured!!!~
