Last post for 09!

I'm writing this at 11pm, so about 1 hour till the 1st!

I had my last canned fruit for breakfast today.

I was going to go to Ruchi today, since they were closed yesterday, and there was a sign on the door that says they are only open on Monday nights now. So, I went to similar buffet called Indian Diner for lunch.

I had my VERY LAST bag of Lays original chips (one of my main weaknesses, lol) today.

MY VERY LAST COOKED MEAL was Hunan tofu from China Garden. It's basically fried tofu and veggies covered in a spicy sauce.  I drank MY VERY LAST can of Arizona tea (another one of my main weaknesses).

This morning I got rid of all the non-raw stuff I didn't want. Rachel came up with the idea that one cabinet should be for raw stuff and we could keep her non-raw stuff in another cabinet.

I revamped / reposted all 5 of My Pre-Raw Food Diet Vlog videos on You Tube:











Okay, that's it for 2009!

2 days left!

I had my last bowl of corn flakes (with my last Silk soy milk) for breakfast today.

I was going to go Ruchi (an Indian buffet) for lunch today, for the last time, but they were closed!  So, I ended up going to China Buffet (not Oriental Buffet) instead.

I had my last Monster drinks today.

I had my last Quiznos sub, baked Lays and Sobe green tea for dinner today.

Tomorrow is my last day to eat cooked food!  That's a really interesting feeling, lol!

My Work Blog

I'm going to copy and paste my work blog here on Monday.

3 days left!

I had my last veggie with no cheese (from Little Caesars) for lunch today.

I had my last Boca fake chicken patties (with my last burger buns / bread) and last chocolate soy milk for dinner.

I'm about 220 lbs right now!  It's my own fault though.  I've probably gained 10 lbs in December alone.

My attitude is oh well, I'm going to drop this weight when I go raw!

4 days left!

I'm gettin' down to the bare wire!

I ate my last fake meat on a veggie sub (from Subway) for lunch today.

I ate my last Boca burgers and curly fries for dinner today.

My 40th post

I've hit 40 posts, yay.

I bought a dry erase calendar today.

I'm going to use this to start planning out my meals.  This will come in handy, especially when it comes to meals that take a day or two to prepare (soaking, sprouting, dehydrating etc).

I also bought one of those environmentally friendly canteens today.

I'm going to attach this to my man bag, lol.

This is the last week of the year, yay!  I have work tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday.  I'm taking Thursday off and then Friday is the 1st!

I had my last cooked food from Panera today.

Update 12-26-9

Today was the last Saturday of the year. I had my last Amy's pizza, fake ice cream and Starbucks today.  It's a really interesting feeling when I have my last of something.

I sold my soy milk maker for $40.00 on Craigslist today.

I'm going to give my Magic Bullet away at the next raw support group meeting. I need to make more room in my cabinets!

Going raw 1 week from tomorrow!

It's Christmas eve and I'm so excited that I'm going raw next Friday!

I have decided to use my .com site for now on. I have set this blog to come up when you go to thatoneguyonline.com. I'll probably make some links and put them to the right of this page. I was thinking about setting up a whole site, but it seems easier to just use my blog. I've noticed that's what a lot of people do.

I bought a 7 cup Cuisinart food processor off Craigslist today for $50.00!

My mini food processor overheated, so I bought this one!  Actualy, it was sort of my mom's Christmas present to me (she paid for it, lol).

Rachel got me a Slap Chop for Christmas!

I went to Georgetown Market today and bought some natural hygiene products.

I'm going to start using natural hygiene products when I go raw.  That may help my psoriasis.

I went to Udupi Cafe (an Indian buffett) for the last time today.

I'm having my last Tofurky roast, my last vegan holiday meal from Whole Foods and my last carton of Silk nog tomorrow on Christmas.  I'm going to eat my favorites one last time next week and that's it!

I weight about 220 right now! The past couple months have basically been one big binge. It's all going to stop next Friday! I know 20 pounds is going to fall off in like 2 weeks after going raw. I plan on being down to 160 by June.

4 weeks to go!

Woo Hoo! January 1st is 4 weeks away! I'm so excited about going raw! Like I said a couple posts ago, I've been letting myself go (within the realms of veganism, of course) this last part of the year. I weighed myself and I'm up to 215! I was about 180 this time last year, so I've gained like 30 lbs (part of that is because I got off Methotrexate). When I think about this I end up thinking "Oh well, I'm going to drop all this weight when I go raw next year anyway".

I just want the next 4 weeks to zoom by so I can get all this going. Rachel also wants to lose weight, so I'm going to try to help her too.

I want to get a magnetized calender / dry erase board to put on my fridge so I can start planning raw meals. That way, if I plan on making something that takes a lot of prep (like soaking / sprouting / dehydrating), I can plan ahead.

I'm going to have to eat heavier stuff (like raw pizza, raw tacos, etc) at first, but then after a while I should start eating simpler. Someday, I may even flirt with fruitarianism.

BIG NEWS: I've decided to go ahead and keep thatoneguyonline.com! I've been using that as a site for my music for the past 4 years. Since I'm not doing a whole lot with music right now, and I'm known on a lot of sites (like You Tube and forums), I've decided to turn it into a site all about me. Basically, it's going to be an official site to document my raw food diet. I'll still keep my music on there, too.

Also, sometime soon, I'm going to re-edit my pre-raw food diet videos and sort of revamp them one last time. Then, I'll post them one last time before I start posting my raw food diet vlog videos on You Tube.
