This was a great week for me. Got a lot of cleaning and I accomplished a lot of things.

Do not get me wrong, I miss my family, but being able to clean and keep things clean feel great.

I have been doing the elliptical every day and with all the sweating from the cleaning I have done my cardio part. I also did well with the eating. I eat fruits and salads with chicken and salmon. I had plenty of water and I only had diet soda one day.

For this week I plan to continue with the cleaning. I have been donating a lot of stuff. I cannot believe we have so much junk. I am also taking a day off just to relax and have some me time. That is going to be my 4th of July celebration. All friends and family are away, so it would be just me. I am planning of having homemade facials, pedicure and color my hair. (I just do my own color to give it shine)

I forgot to take a before picture, so you cannot see the difference, but at least I got an after picture from my son toys room. I can say I do not like Legos that much, so hard to clean and organize, thank God for storage containers.

I will be doing a raw food clean diet for 3 days this week. I have been dealing with an allergy and so far despite all the test, the Drs do not have any idea of the cause. So I am going to see if changing my diet helps. It is only 3 days, so it should not affect nutrition wise, and I will have a variety of vegetables and fruits with all the vitamins. Wish me luck sticking to it for these 3 days.

I am also really excited about the new 2weekchallenge starting tomorrow. It is really going to help me to get back on track! 

Have a nice and safe 4th of July

I need to get some floor pads like those! My girls' playroom is all hardwood and they fall a lot, so that would be perfect!

I hope your raw diet helps you figure out what's been bothering you. Good work keeping your diet and exercise up to par!

Have fun with your time this week. Those home spa treatments sound heavenly. Good luck with your cleanse and eventual diagnosis of food issues. I have food allergies that we're hard to diagnose and me and my medical team were finally able to figure them up via IgE antibody tests via the labs at GDX.net

I'm curious to hear if the raw diet makes an impact on the allergy. I've been struggling with what I thought was bad hayfever for nearly 12 years and had allergy tests last summer only to have them say that I have "non-allergic rhinitis". However, some of my symptoms can only be described as a histamine reaction.
Go get 'em on the 2weekchallenge!
