Raw Fu Celebrity Guest- Wendi Dee

Today I am honored to have Wendi Dee as the special raw food celebrity guest. Wendi's story is absolutely amazing, and I can relate so much to the hurt that I see in some of her earlier photos. Bust out the tissues again. You're going to need them for this amazing transformation.

My eyebrow saga continues. This dressing up and being a girl for work this is so foreign to me now. Today I have a Joan Crawford thing going.

Eyebrow Adventures

Nothing can knock a girl down a few notches on the cuteness scale like accidentally shaving off of the eyebrows at 6am on a Monday morning during a business trip. I forgot my tweezers, and decided to do a quick brow freshen up using the tip of my brand new razor. Um. I shaved a stripe into my brow, which meant the whole brow had to go. After standing in front of the mirror laughing, I had to shave the other one off too.

I've been obsessing for the past three days about drawing on eyebrows, which was much harder since I didn't have much time to break out my old favorite beauty manual, YouTube.

Here are my brows today: on the glamorous setting.

Day 86- Hawaii Bound

I'm in the lovely and exciting Houston airport at the moment, I was able to wrangle up a banana and blueberry smoothie from Smoothie King, minus any of the boosts. I've learned my lesson about those boosts. Unless you can look at the ingredient list, there is usually gluten hiding in those protein powders. Jointache City for me.

I may have posted this video of the Jenna in the Jungle tour of a Big Island Permaculture project, but I think it's worth watching again. I thinks when people hear that you're going to Hawaii, this is how they imagine you are going to be living. People picture grass huts, no urban sprawl, and empty white sand beaches. And while there are still a few areas of the islands like that, the Permaculture project is a rare raw food retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life in Honolulu. While I'd rather be feeding the goats and eating coconuts off the tree, I'll be in an office building somewhere around here...View Larger Map

Raw Rosemary Pesto with Carrot Noodles

Today we are back in the Raw Fu Kitchen making a tasty rosemary pesto. I wanted to do this demo to show you that even when winter rolls around, you can still create lovely pestos with ingredients that are in season in your garden!

Pesto is such a great thing to make because you can really match the ingredients to your exact tastes and liking. Plus, it's really fun to eat over noodle made with a Spirooli Spiral 3-in-1 Slicer or noodles that you make by just using a regular old vegetable peeler!

Having So Much Fun, originally uploaded by darnlucky.

Happy Birthday, Devon

This is my beautiful niece, Devon. She is turning 5, and we are headed to Atlanta today to celebrate her birthday with a bowling party, and hopefully a few snuggles from the birthday girl. Beckett and Devon are just about 6 months apart in age. And when we get them together, it really takes me back to my childhood weekends, playing for hours with my cousins, loving them like they were my own brothers and sisters. My father was one of 13 children, so I had a gaggle of playmates.

When I was a kid, I always wondered why my aunts and uncles made such a big deal out of us kids. They wanted to play with us, they came to our school plays and sent us Christmas cards. It wasn't until I had nieces and nephews of my own that I understood that kind of love. They're all my kids. I love them so much it hurts. And they're growing up so fast. Days like today are the reason we decided to move back from Honolulu 4 years ago. I don't want to miss a minute of them growing up.

I hope you guys have a great day 79 of Raw Fu. I picked peppers and rosemary from the garden, buttercrisp lettuce and red leaf, too. Making a big juicy sweet and savory salad with pear and rosemary dressing for the road.

HOW IS YOUR DAY 79 GOING?

RAW FU CHALLENGE DAY 77- Collective Panty Pull

Today I stayed in bed most of the day. I just had a feeling that it was a good idea. And I was right. As soon as I got up I realized everybody has their panties in a wad today. So, I'm here to dish out the collective panty pull.

Registration is open for the Raw Fu holiday Mini Challenge. SIGN UP ON www.RawFu.com!

Congratulations, Debbie! I Love You.

There is really nothing that I could say today that would top the fact that Raw Fu Member, Debbie of Debbie Does Raw is celebrating her ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF EATING RAW LIVING FOODS. We're all going to have that anniversary, you know. And watching someone as wonderful as Debbie celebrate being there just gives me goosebumps.

Raw Fu Challengers, picture yourself on your one year anniversary of being raw. How will you feel? How will you look? How will it have changed your life? You can do it. And I'll be right there cheering you on. :)

CONGRATULATIONS, honey! You are our celebrity raw food guest today! We LOVE YOU! (Debbie is pictured here with Kris Carr from Crazy Sexy Cancer. Love the Kris!

HOW IS YOUR DAY 77 GOING?

Raw Fu Challenge Day 75- PZIZZ!

Today I have to tell you about PZIZZ! http://www.pzizz.com, and Raw Fu Member, Edward's unique brainchild software that will revolutionize your meditation experience.

I LOVE Pizizz. For shizzle, you need to pzizzle.

We Haz Garden VIDEO EDITION

I've been outside a few times today to check on the garden. I kind of feel like I got a new pet. I hope this garden doesn't turn out like my Webkinz World garden. I kind of forgot to login to water and rake my garden for a few months, and when I went back in...ewww. Everything had turned brown. What? You guys don't play Webkinz? Well, you're missing out. All the kids are doing it.

I've been having a weird day. Intense coffee cravings. I've been feeling a little run down for the past few days. But instead of drinking coffee, I've been doing Pzizz's energizer meditation. I'll be telling you more about Pzizz tomorrow, because it's been something that has gotten me back into meditation, and is one of the coolest things I've discovered in a long time. AND it's the brainchild of Raw Fu member, Edward. Tune in tomorrow to learn more about Pzizz.

Edward is GENEROUSLY offering 50% off of Pzizz for all Raw Fu members. Use coupon code: rawfu

Honestly, I've been having kind of a hard day. Missing my father a lot today. I think I've been going through some emotional detox since I started the colon hydrotherapy. A lot of the grieving I didn't do at the time has started to resurface. It's amazing how much stress and emotion we carry in our bodies. As our bodies release the stress and gunk, the emotions come to the surface. Don't forget to breathe.

We Haz Garden!

This weekend, Basil and I got busy and built our first square foot garden box. We planted cabbage, red leaf lettuce, buttercrisp lettuce, collards, and the spinach, beet, and carrots that I started from seeds.

I can't wait to start munching on those greens! Video of the whole process coming up tomorrow. <3

You can see your 1975 Wilderness Camper in the background here. We call it the gRITZ. She is patiently waiting for raw food friends to come visit, and is ready to be your luxury accomodations!

HOW IS YOUR DAY 73 GOING?

HOW IS YOUR DAY 71 GOING?

Get Unplugged with Alexis

Don't let Alexis fool you. She is one of my raw food heroines, and is a huge raw food celebrity! Alexis and her amazing insight has helped to guide me, keep me on track, and motivated me at times when I wanted to throw in the towel. I love her no bullshit approach to becoming a raw foodist. She tells it like it is, and speaks from her heart. She is an amazingly true spirited person, and I have a ton of respect for her.

I had the brilliant opportunity to meet Alexis at Raw Spirit Festival, and I couldn't wait to ask her if she would talk to you about her experience on raw food. I just love Alexis, and she was generous enough to do a TWO PART video for us.

I agree so strongly with Alexis. Just hang in there. It doesn't happen overnight. You're exactly where you are supposed to be. GET UNPLUGGED!

HOW IS YOUR DAY 69 GOING?

Don't Give Up. You're Healing.

Raw Fu Challenge Day 68- Don't Give Up. You're Healing from Bunny Berry on Vimeo.
Today I want to talk to you. One on one. Just Bunny and the Internet. We need to talk about the reality of a raw food diet. And about how you may not be able to see the changes that are happening to you on the outside.

The scale may not move. But you're healing. Healing from the inside out. Don't give up. Trust the process. This is part of my story...

HOW IS YOUR DAY 68 GOING?

Transformation in Progress

I haven't watched this video since I made it back in March, and was shocked when I watched it today. This was right around 6 months ago. WHO IS THAT PERSON? I cannot believe the difference in my health, my skin, my attitude, my happiness between 6 months ago and now. I feel like one of those follow up segments at the end of the reality show, Intervention.

Go back and look at your before pictures today. And take a new picture of yourself now. It may seem like your progress is going slowly. The weight on the scale never moves fast enough. But look beyond the weight. Look at the color of your eyes. Look at the tightness of your skin. Look at your smile. Look at the whole picture. And share your successes with us. This is amazing!

HOW IS YOUR DAY 67 GOING?

Raw Fu Challenge Day 66- Little Black Dress with Jo Thomas

Today I talk about the upcoming Raw Fu Holiday Challenge, as well as giving details about Jo Thomas and the Little Black Dress Programme that I will be participating in starting on October 30th. Check out the information about the Little Black Dress Programme at www.discoverrawblog.com Join in! It's going to be fun.

I am so proud to be part of a community with super smart women like Jo Thomas. I have never worked with a raw food coach or a weight loss coach before, so I am looking forward to that experience. I'll keep you guys posted on how it's going. You know I will!

And today I went for my 2nd colon hydrotherapy session. It was extremely productive. I'm really happy I have decided to make this part of my healing journey. You should try it. And more than once. The 2nd round was way more therapeutic than the first. And I can see how making it part of your regular health routine would be beneficial. Don't be scared. If I can put my fat ass on the table and do it, you can too!

Raw Fu Challenge Day 65- A Day at the Zoo

I spent the day with my mom, Beckett, and my two nephews. We went to the zoo, had a picnic, and hung out together without a care in the world. It was really fun.

Congratulations to chasmyn for winning yesterday's Friday Food Fact contest! The answer was artichoke.

Raw Fu Challenge Day 64- Food Trivia Friday

Today I thank everyone who bought tee shirts or contributed to T's blender fund. T's VitaMix 5200 is being shipped out soon!

Also, it's Food Trivia Friday. Answer the question in this video and win a copy of Victoria Buetenko's 12 Steps to Raw Foods.
