Raw eating...

With warmer temps fast approaching, I plan to take FULL advantage of my vegetarianism and increase my intake of fresh fruits and veggies. Winter months tend to make people want to indulge in warm, filling foods. Holidays heighten the temptation of adding lots of fried, fatty foods as well as luscious sweet treats. I cannot tell a lie; the past 4.5 months in Kentucky my eating has been all over the map and I don't mean that in a good way either. My decision to begin my meatless and organic journey was about the healthiest thing I have done since our relocation. My biggest challenge at this point is "what the heck am I supposed to eat?"  I don't know one person who doesn't eat meat. It's not so bad, when hubby and I began low-carbing in 2007 I was in the same boat so here I go again, researching a healthier way of eating. :o)
I have been scouring Barnes & Noble.com looking for an easy to follow raw eating ebook to put on my Nook. Today I think I may have found a winner...
I'm checking out a sample first to see what I think but so far the book seems pretty good and is within a reasonable price range.

I also began buying veggie food products. All winners!! Friday I bought the pepper jack slices and I'm in heaven! 

I picked up some meatless meats that will allow me to continue to enjoy some of my favorite common recipes. Yuuuuummmmmmm.....



I'm thrilled with both as they are extremely low in fat and calories, have zero cholesterol, and high in protein. *2 thumbs up*

The clock is winding down for the opening of my fitness studion and because I will be one of the main instructors of classes I am beginning a very rigid exercise schedule. My daily schdule is about to become EXTREMELY taxing on my body so I'm getting ready now so I don't end up in the hospital from exhaustion come August. I'm ready for it. I have been craving some good Zumba and spinning but I refused to join a gym to be able to participate! I'm the kind of person who will "do it myself" if I can't get what I want the way I want it. This is going to be way cooler because I'm going to make a living doing it now. GOD is so good!
