Wow this last week has certainly been a learning experience. I orginally started the "7 day raw food detox" to prove that it would not work for me, but the fact is I have been proven wrong. For the last seven days I have eaten only raw fruit and veggies. I am amazed how it has made me feel. It has changed the way I look at food and it has taken away MANY (not all) cravings for things that are really not good for me. The second day was the hardest for sure I got to a point that day that I seriously wanted to die, but it was a mind over matter thing that has given me a lot of confidence in my journey to a healthier life style. I will probably continue to eat 80-90% raw.
Last night was my last night on the detox and I woke this morning not feeling like going back to my old eating habits, I feel great.
Here are the results:
Weight Loss: 6lbs (brought my BMI into the "healthy" range):)
Waist: -3 inches
Hips: -3 inches
I feel thinner, my anxiety has decreased, my patients has increased, I actually do have more energy, and my overall emotional state has been GREAT! I am really glad that I decided to do this and it has truly taught me why more water and more fruits and veggies are really good for me. I have 9lbs to my goal weight and its the first time I feel like I might actually be able to do it.

That is so awesome! Way to go Tessa!
Wow man this is great news.
Dru had a friend on his mission who was a 'fruitarian' and raved about it and so did Dru.
This guy only has to sleep 2 hours a night and hasn't been sick in over 10 years.
Good for you! That is awesome. I've done it before, but lack the willpower to do it all the time... I certainly feel better when I eat better.
Woah! That's great! I don't think there's any way that I would have the will power to do it. Weren't you starving all the time?! I feel like after I eat an apple I get even more hungry!
Good for you!
That's awesome Tessa!!! I know when I do my green smoothies I feel so much more alert and energetic. I'm proud of you loverly!
