Message to Bay-Bay (signed above): "I still feel awful. My throat hurts and my stomach hurts as well. I keep coughing repeatedly. I am eating soup. Ugh. I miss you. I love you. Come here and snuggle with me. Yeah."

My precious love is sick too! ;/ Sad panda. Bay got sick in the process too. She got a sinus infection and two ear infections too. Boo to being sick! All of our days kind of run together.
I went to the doctor to find out I have a sinus infection too.

YU 30, Day 5

Tuesday, February, 5th

We went to People’s to get some staples, legumes, raw organic pressed coconut, soap cut from a bar, Pixie Retreat sandwich, and a juice from The Sip Juice Cart. We went to New Season’s to get almond butter because People’s was out and some more large mason jars for soup. I can't believe we went shopping. We were and are so exhausted. But you do what you need to do right?!?

YU 30, Day 4

Monday, February, 4th

We are SICK, SICK, SICK. I feel like a baby. I started with cold like symptoms after a baby shower the recently Sunday. Monday, bam! I have the cold. Shakes head. My throat feels like Cheddar has climbed inside and used it as a scratching post. We found this recipe to help with my throat (image below, left.) It helped a little bit. It help prevent getting sick use the recipe "Natures Flu Shots" (image right).


                    


Over the course of the week we ate leftover soup, smoothies, tea, and other home remedies. We found out a lot of people were sick with the flu. 


Breakfast: slept right through it.

Lunch: 
Bay’s brother was out of town and let us borrow his Vita mix. It worked amazing!! Our Yellow Split Pea Soup with sweet Potatoes and Kale was a little bit thick. We put it in the blender and voila! Perfect soup was made.     

Dinner:
We ate more leftover soup.

We found out a lot of people were sick with the flu. This week consisted of sleeping, getting food from the market, eating leftover soup, sleeping, drinking fluids, and repeat. Everywhere we went someone was sick. Gross! I felt as though I was infesting people and getting sick by association. We apologize if we got anyone sick.

Why Are We Craving Junk Food?

Saturday, January, 19th

I have noticed that I don't get tired after I eat my food, nor does my stomach get upset as much. I think it's because I am eating more Plant Based foods. I found this realistic picture of what it stomach looks like (image left) on Get Fit Faster. They have really cool motivational quotes, recipes, and pictures to work. it. out.

I researched the picture above to see where it brought me and Annie Jaffrey explains wonderfully why people are addicted to bad food and what to do about it. Another interesting snapshot of what we eat is image left. Crazy right?! This explains why we our body keeps telling us we are hungry after eating junk food, even though we've eaten a full meal. In return, we gain weight to over consummate the lack of nutrition. 

Bay and I have also watched some very informative documentaries on Netflix. We have watched the documentaries: "Fork over Knives" and "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead," and "No Impact Man." We were blown away by the brainwashing by the FDA. The FDA is controlled by the government. They are the ones who do the studies of what is "safe" for us. Unfortunately, the people who are on the FDA board are the owners of huge corporations in dairy and meat products. Have you noticed all of the advertisements are primarily dairy and meat? 

They also showed studies of GMO's, meat, dairy and how they are link to cancer as well as our nations history. Their are so many stories of how people stop taking medication by changing what they consume while adding an exercise routine.  

The movie "No Impact Man" showed how him and his wife had no carbon foot print for a year in New York. I really want to make a food compost in my house like he did. The majority of my food products are scraps from fruits and vegetables. This means less garbage, less waste, and less impact on our environment. Cool!
