Things are Going Well!

Good Morning! This blog was a bit of an experiment, and, based on my busy schedule I'm not posting as much as I'd like. However, I just wanted to check in and say that this 'diet,' which is essentially a lifestyle of 80% alkaline, 20% acidic, is truly as effective as 'The Beauty Detox Solution' claims. I've never felt better, and I do feel like I look younger, or at least just more vibrant, the way the author Kimberly Snyder claims will happen. I haven't gotten sick at all, despite being on a bug-laden college campus and not getting enough sleep. I'm very grateful I put the work in this summer to understand her comprehensive system because once the understanding becomes a bit more second-nature the lifestyle is not that hard to uphold. Also, once habits like drinking lemon-water in the morning followed by a green smoothie become engrained I've found I can still allow myself to have other foods that Snyder wouldn't approve of (like this delicious pumpkin-ginger scone).
It's really about getting over the hump of the lifestyle changes and then once you are familiar with your body in the newly aware, sensitive way this diet allows, you can incorporate your preferences into your choices from a more organic (no pun intended) place instead of a by-the-book one. That's all for now!
