Right. So, I'm on my 9th day with the FlorEssence cleanse. The stuffy head and random head pressure weirdness have gone awayyy. But now my skin - oh, how expressive is she, glorious skin - has decided upon some itchy pink cheeks. I could possibly be described as a slightly older looking version of my baby self (see left hehe) with those typical baby rash cheeks. I think it's funny, and it looked even more spectacular after Ashtanga tonight. (More on Ashtanga later, I owe it a whole sonnet of joy and joyness).
Anyway, I'm soooo glad I'm doing this gentle little cleanse right now. I've always lived in a more city-oriented environment and who knows what sort of crap we're exposed to every day, so I'm getting rid of some of that. Maybe I'll go live on a farm in Oregon or Ireland (it's one or the other). Minus the cows. Chickens are amusing, though - I would have one just for looks. Preferrably one with the furry legs, or as Ali G says..."why's that chicken got them fuzzy boots on?"
I've had some new emails asking what I eat, so instead of giving a whole dissertation, I'll just keep a little record on a quasi-regular basis. Plus, I've written a whole section of "Raw 101" for the RSLiving website, which will be up by the end of the month for your viewing pleasure.
So, for the record...today was a mostly liquid, small eating day. Probably because I've been eating nearly non-stop for a few days prior to that, ended up losing a pound in the process, and my stomach is now calling for break.
19 September, year of the 2, 0, 0, and 7:
- 2 big cups of filtered UV water and lots of "I love you" energy first thing in the morning
- 2 oz. of FlorEssence with 2 oz. of water
- 2 big cups of smoothie - green powder, bee pollen, maca root, cranberries, goji berries, blackberries, ice, water, olive oil, and a scoop of Tomberlies raw vegan mint ice cream
- 16 oz. organic green juice - collards, kale, celery, and parsley
- 16 oz. organic green juice - collards, kale, spinach, parsley, celery, fresh-squeezed lemon
- Several pieces sushi (raw, wild-caught fish) at my favorite sushi bar - spicy tuna wrapped in nori and avocado and spicy tuna wrapped in nori and mango
- 2 big cups of water
- 2 oz. of FlorEssence with 2 oz. of water
Love and rawk on,
Steph

I read your diet and I thought, wow. Wow. You must be in transition. I used to be into processed raw foods when I was into in 1-2 years. I even became a chef. Now many years later and a fruitarian turn, what I eat every day is like this\
Watermelon
Oranges
or
chopped tomatoes and cucmbers
salt free guacamole
or
smoothies with dates and banana
Over time, the diet (in order to feel good) gets simpler and simpler..and your head and your brain, feel so pure.
Good luck

Thank you so much for sharing your diet, Suvine. AND you live in Vegas! Very cool. ;) Back when I really was in my transition, I ate a lot of processed raw food and it all had to be complex and gourmet and take 20 hours haha. Now I've become much more relaxed in terms of schedule and simplicity. I still enjoy Tomberlies or SmartMonkey bars, but it's not nearly as often as it used be. :D
By the way, since you tend to eat oranges everyday, do you like blood oranges? They are in season, yet again. ;) My favorite.
Love and rawk on,
Steph
