I’ve changed a little bit. It’s kinda cool to look back and see just how much. You can probably tell by my pictures that I never expected this to happen, until it actually did. I tried to wear the same dress and sort of pose the same way to be able to see the changes, […]
Yesterday, all my coworkers could talk about was the anticipation of their BBQ lunch that they had hyped up between daydreaming aloud with each other (and likely personal internalized hype) about how wonderful this meal on a pedestal would be for days prior to the event. This is the “best BBQ” around. “Rebecca can’t have […]
I had my full body measurements done again in the gym today. I’m gaining muscles with a low-protein low-fat diet (90/5/5 – 80/10/10) and have put on several pounds of muscle in the last month mainly in my thighs and chest, but also filling out my left side to match my right side. My waist […]
I fell in the gym today… twice? Maybe three times. It didn’t matter to me. Big awkward collapses with various noises and grunting and absolutely zero care about who was watching or judging. I smiled, wiped off my sweat, and got back on the machine to try again until burnout, which means literally falling out […]
One of the aspects of the lifestyle that I decided to become more comfortable with in time was to stop mimicking old cooked comforts with my raw food. Sure, at first, it was extremely satisfying to make fatty, salty, dehydrated comforts spiced and textured to slightly resemble the foods I had sacrificed. Naming the dishes […]
???????????? “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” Vegan for the animals and the planet. Raw Fruitarian for my health. My name is Rebecca Rosenberg, and I have been vegan for the animals since 2009, but still got very sick. I began my raw vegan fruitarian journey on October 12, 2014 […]
This is the preliminary plan for today: I’ve got 1.5 gallons of watermelon juice (with the rind), 2 Hawaiian papayas (eating some seeds), and 4 ataulfo mangoes. I’m planning on a cucumber/zucchini noodle bowl for dinner. I’m not sure how I’ll flavor it yet. Maybe just some lemons blended with jalapeño? I’ll see what I […]
Between 2003 and 2009, I was a “vegetarian for the animals.” Shhhhhh, vegans, quit laughing. Seriously though, I had NO CLUE about the atrocities of the dairy industry until I read the book “Skinny Bitch.” I had heard it was sort of veggie friendly and funny. So I’m taking a hot bath one evening and […]
Watermelon juice and mangoes all day. Maybe a tomato date jalapeño cucumber noodle soup for dinner tonight. Gym will be cardio, calisthenics, and weights, a little of everything. I will take care of my body today. I need to work harder, though, at taking care of my soul. Another friend dead from preventable disease. Another […]
Just because you swallow it doesn’t mean you absorb it. Sometimes we cannot absorb nutrients due to a damaged gut. Sometimes we cannot absorb nutrients because the body isn’t capable of absorbing more than a designated quantity at a time. Sometimes we CAN absorb it, but too much of a concentrated nutrient is actually quite […]
