Giveaway, Cars & One Week Raw Food Cleanse

by Vegalicious Elena on January 27, 2012

Where has the week gone? I have been crazy busy with personal and business happenings.

The Giveaway

First, don’t forget that today is the last day to enter fabulous Vegaversary giveaway–Registration to the 30-Day Boot Camp!

Goodbye Old Faithful!

Our Old Faithful–a car I had for 13 years (yeah!) had finally let us know it was time to upgrade and we had to let her go (yes, it was a “she”) :) .  We hoped it would last us until the Spring, but when it is time, it is time.  So, the last few days and yesterday we spent the entire day out looking for a worthy substitute, although with more room with our Sprout soon to arrive.  We were blessed to have found one that met our requirements and our budget.  We bid our Old Faithful goodbye, and I did not realize how emotionally attached one can be to a vehicle, but there were just too many memories tied to mine.

I got it when I was still in college.  Hubby asked me out on our first date while I was sitting in it; we danced many of our late night dances, while courting, by it, and shared many precious moments together. I transported numerous US and international students in it to and from the local airport, when I worked for the college I attended.  It moved with us through several states. And, above all, it has been very low maintenance and great with gas milage.

So, with our new car ready to go, we said our goodbyes to the car, but we held onto our memories:

(our super fun, amazing, female sales person insisted we take parting pictures with Old Faithful ;) , and why not?!)

7-Day (One Week) Raw Food Cleanse

With my belly showing quiet a bit more, and Sprout kicking up a storm in in it, I discovered that a little bit of the weight migrated to my thighs… and that is not something I enjoy, pregnancy or not. So, I had a brilliant idea of doing a 7-Day Raw Meal Cleanse–nothing but delicious raw foods for seven straight days.  It will make for a great way to cleanse a couple of unwanted ”thigh” pounds out of the way.

I shared my thought about this on Facebook, and in minutes over 15 people said they want to do it with me.  In order for all of us to do it effectively, however, and especially since some have never been raw for a full day before, I know that I will need to put together a manual with recipes, so everyone does it safely and enjoys it too.  This will take me a few days, so I am thinking about doing the cleanse in a couple of weeks.

There will be a charge for the recipe book, of course, but it won’t be astronomical ;) , just like the rest of my e-books it will be made in mind with making it accessible to ANYONE who would wish to do a raw cleanse.

So, if you are interested and would love to stay posted, first, make sure that you are an e-mail subscriber; secondly, drop a note under this post (make sure you enter your e-mail address in the sign in section, so, do not choose ANONYMOUS when leaving a comment ;) ) and let me know, so I can e-mail you as soon as the manual is ready.  I will create an e-mail list to keep anyone and everyone interested updated.

What you can expect:

  • a 7-Day Raw Meal Cleanse manual with delicious recipes: green smoothies, fruit smoothies, drinks, salads, raw soups, etc., menu planners and helpful tips and tricks
  • an on-line, Facebook, 7-day Raw Meal Cleanse group access, so we can all share in the joy of health and weight loss ;) , and share what we are going through
  • losing weight and feeling better!

Being that I am pregnant and would not want to cleanse anything nasty over my baby, I will have to take it slower and most likely have one small cooked meal a day, but if you are not preggo, you will do just fine on all raw ;) .

So, if you are interested, drop a note, and I will make sure to contact you with an update just as soon as more information is ready and I am ready to release the manual.

      Me too ;)  I thought I was going to just let it go, and then we start remembering everything that we have been through with the car… and I thought: “No way! I am actually getting emotional over this!” :)

  • Tolnaiaubrey

    Totallly interested:)

  • Jamie

    Totally want to do this with you!!! Let me know when the e-book is ready!!! Thank you! Jamie

  • Kimberan

    Hmmmm, definitely interested.  What about the green smooth cleanse?  This would be more appealing because what I missed about the green smoothie is chewing.  :)  Congrats on the new car!  (We finally sold my first car and it was HARD to see it go.)

    I had my first car for over 10 years.  Sold it right at 4 years ago, and still miss it!!

  • Supergreenmama

    Please keep me posted…this sounds like something I would love to do as well :)
