Oops

Okay, so I realise I haven't blogged in a very, VERY long time. I have a reason though! I have had a jaw operation, which I am pleased to say (5 weeks on) that I have recovered from.

WHERE I AM AT
My vegan journey is going well: I'm all vegan apart from the occasional slice of bread, and the evil demon milk chocolate. I realised this afternoon, after baking my vegan apple pie (yummy!), that I am using bread and chocolate as a crutch. I can't do it anymore - I shouldn't, and I won't. Simple as that.

All of my health and beauty products are vegan, and in my heart I am vegan, but I have these two stupid vices. At least now I have recognised them I will be able to take action.

WHERE I WANT TO BE
I dearly want to go raw. I would love to be a raw vegan! I have experienced such a wealth of physical and mental improvements since my vegetarian, then vegan, journey began. I want to be the best me I can, and going raw will help me to achieve that.

WHAT I AM GOING TO DO
I would love to say that after writing thsi post I am going to go raw, just like like that. I don't think it works like that! However, I have just bought a variety of books on raw and sprouting. It's much more complicated than it sounds! This is simply because so much of our everyday 'natural' food is still either partially cooked or pasturised. It's no wonder we 'modern' folk have such health problems that we have accepted as 'normal'.

I am 23 years old. Normal doesn't cut it anymore!
