OKAY!!!! I am back. This morning is ubwo and I am starting a new way of eating. It is still strict EFL (which I have pretty much stuck with)...I am going to call it an evolved eating style, combining the raw vegetables and cooked lean animal products. It will be 50% raw and very healthy. I have a 1/2 marathon 1 month from today that I haven\'t even started training for. I will run/walk. There will be other "transformers&...Accountability

...on my last post I was floating in Gods hands. It is true, and I believe that I would never have felt the peace and certainty without that experience. I feel God and I feel my dad....most of the time. I feel grace and presence.Okay, here is my day... I went to the funeral home with my family to make sure everything was set for the burial tomorrow. We finished picking the stones and went in to check the flowers...and there was my dad...Gratitude

I have an office at home...so I got to work. I felt like I needed to leave my Jammie's on and play Zelda all day. I worked out and feel really good. This is it. I am going to reach my goal now and I am never going back.No school tomorrow or the next day, kora is having an overnighter. It makes my heart sing to hear little girls giggling....Sunday...getting ready for a new week
This is the kind of challenge that I finally understand why people want to start over! I figure what I have learned on calorie consumption and laying low while you heal is probably one of the more important parts of my challenge. I have learned a lot. No matter how much you go chasing after knowledge, the most valuable knowledge is the knowledge that seems to come on its own.Today I am adding 2 things to my goals. One is t...Accountability

3 weeks ago I realized that I was only eating 900 calories a day. I also got a really bad backache and quit working out. 2 weeks ago I increased the number of calories I eat by 500. I counted my calories daily and the lowest I went over the 2 weeks was 1390 a day. I thought I was going to weigh myself today and be 6 lbs heavier. I am not. I lost .6 lbs. At first I was excited...then I realized that ...Wednesday
I happened into a group of my friends who are not on Transformation anymore. I forgot how much I missed some of them. LOL...not all...but some. The ones I really shared with. Then there are others who are still all about themselves and judge you from where they are. That is pretty interesting and annoying at the same time.Okay...I have 2 more days at higher calories and down I come! Who would have ever thought ...Monday
I have doubled the number of calories I am eating and now I am feeling F-A-T. I am remaining optimistic and trusting the process. 20 times a day I am very tempted to stop. This is one of the scarier things I have ever done. It is probably good that my back hurts and I can't work out because I would surely be working out double to keep from feeling F-A-T. The thing is the more I weigh...the worse my back feels. ...Friday
The state of my transformation, slow but sure. A funny thing for me, I am getting help from this nice person who says I am not getting enough calories. I started counting and I was only getting about 900 a day. What is worse, I was gaining weight on 900 calories a day. Well, let me tell you, that just sucks. Now I am counting calories every day and I am eating til I have gotten 1400 calories. Does anyone want t...Sunday
My back still hurts. I have been taking it easy this weekend. Hopefully I will wake up tomorrow and it will be gone. I have enough of the food I made last week that I didn't have to prepare anything....Saturday
