BlueStorm Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 It's been a few days since I logged on.I have been busy with the harder part of my schoolwork. I just did a great workout for 40 minutes with some weights and cardio nicely mixed up.Still waiting on my jars of Vega that were sent to make my protein intake a bit easier.I have been juicing lots of veggies and trying recipes from Brandon Braziers books and Ani Phyo.Some easy on hand bars and making food in bulk. I have been looking at Jillian Michael's Body Revolution dvd series.Love the trailers. Well, my birthday is 3-3 so who know! Also I have been finding positivity in John Demartini's book: Breakthrough experience! How are all of you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 How are things going with your vegan diet? I know it has been 6 weeks or so now and I'm curious to see how you're doing. Thank you for all your kind words. All the very best! -Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStorm Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 Robert, thanks for checking in. I have been to the site but have logged not so much.I recieved the amazing prize package, thank you! I have been trying to figure out what I wat to do with this.Had a few hiccups but after re-arranging the fridge and cabinets I am set for success.All the info I got at the blood examination and all I have been reading online, video's I am absorbing, my study...I am thinking of starting something here in The Netherlands to create more awareness.May it be through a blog ( I noticed I like to cook and take pictures so for people it will get more appealing) or even a book.A lot of ideas, now sort them out and set realistic goals.I will be here blogging more. Promiss. I'll leave you with the first vegan/raw lime pie I made this week.Tomorrow I am making Ani Phyo's raspberry cake she advised for my birthday Saturday. Cheers!

BlueStorm Posted March 8, 2012 Author Share Posted March 8, 2012 So I have walked 7.3 km this morning and planning weights in the afternoon.My eating is clean yet to fight of fatigue a bit. Lentils are on the stove and made a great herb mixture so it will have this exotic flavour to it.How do others complete their lentil-protein intake?3 bean rule? Or some nuts?Love your thoughts on this. My best friend is ordering 5 tubs of Vega as well ( I send her some and she loved it too)I make mine with spinach, gets it in easier then salads in the winter. I started on 2 books ( I should focus on studying though, yet I love books nowadays) and they are so inspiring.Phsychology of winning is a must read. Be back soon!

kareno Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Hi there! It is always fun to read your posts. Personally, I rarely eat lentils. Not because I don't like them, but they're just not generally on my "radar", so to speak. I actually like them a lot, but I need to find a simple and tasty way to make them. What's your secret? Have you been doing the Bill Phillips challenge? How is that going for you? Hope all is well!! Take care,Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStorm Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 Happy to report I have been working out every day.Tennis, 40 km bike ride outside, Jillian Michaels's dvd's and walking. My skin condition is gone far as I know it and my weight is still going down.Besides more energy I have more focus and I love it. If anyone is reading this, besides VEGA and flaxseed, where do you get your OMEGA 3's?Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kareno Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Well, I'm reading this, but my answers are Vega and flaxseed! Haha! Good job on your consistency and results! That's fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStorm Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 So... I had a bit of a set back.... Here's what happened. For 2 weeks I have been doing great.Like SUPER. Then I feel mentally off, my body is weak and there this HUNGER inside.So reading Transformation I read the part where when too little food we end up binging eventually. ( I knew this, BUT this never appplies to me because I hate lo cal diets)Then I hear Jillian Michaels talking to a lady on my podcast like she was talking to me. I got out Jillian's books and , for the first time started calculating what goes in and goes out.Since the sun is shining again I am out walking a lot.... And then half an hour to an hour of intense weight/cardio...I was shocked....I am on starvation diet . I cried and talked to my guy when he got home and he help me fix a spreadsheet to make clear what I should move and eat to avoid cravings. ( Got myself a good man!!) I am not one to count calories, yet this was necessery to make it visual for me and get a new game plan. Feeling set back and a bit bummed I am wrapping my head around it and planning on going at it another 10 weeks. Thanks for "listening".... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kareno Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 You're getting to know your body better, and that's great! That's why tracking food intake and output is so important. Just hang in there, and be patient with your body and mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStorm Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Posting more examples soon, here are my thoughts for now: So this day says I am in week three, yet with the knowledge I gained I am in day one of my transformation. ( Binges, thank you for teaching me...) I doubted, do I start over the Transformation challenge for best result? I said I am in it to win it. I won knowledge , I changed my behaviour, I educated myself and today was the perfect example.I cycled 25 km in the sun, I had therapy for my related issues and enjoyed a fresh mint tea at the beach with my friend. So maybe I am not the winner Bill looks for, I am becoming the one I have been looking for.I need to look no further.I need not look on the outside.Healing comes from within. And with my winning attitude...my body will come.I will not stop working for it. This kinder, lighter diet of love is working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
