Day 28

This marks the last week of my fast which I will miss but this doesn't mean all my discipline is just going to be thrown all out the window.

What a wonderful day it has been filled with raindrops, daylight, Pickled cucumbers, Sugar Baby watermelons,  mommas,  anniversaries and the Lederer Youth Garden. I am really excited about learning about the Greenhouse and other programs that DC offers such as DC's "field to fork network" and this other thing I found.



Also, I believe this is worth mentioning because I am living in DC and today marks the 50th Anniversary of the "I Have A Dream" speech. I believe that I am highly favored and amazed by the grace inside of me and that I can realize. This wellness Wednesday will definitely be one I will cherish and hold in rememberance




Well since today is such a special day I have my own speech, in more of a written format that I will one day say out loud.



I have a dream that one day everyone living in the inner cities and Urban Areas will have access to healthy food and high quality facilities in their communities.

Also, I have a dream that people can learn to accept themselves fully and others with their flaws and all.

I have a dream that people will be colorblind and learn not to judge someone based on how many degrees they have or lack of them.


I have a dream that the style or texture of someone's hair will not me a matter in their job prospects and their treatment.


I have a dream that people will trust I have their best interest at heart and know what is best for them.


I have a dream that somehow people can work together in peace and find some common ground from sea to shining sea.

I have a dream that one day my work will be published in a high fashion magazine in the Americas, Africa, Asia, Russia, Middle East and Europe.
I have a dream that people will learn to speak freely and openly about any problems they have with someone instead of in private or behind their back.

I have a dream that one day people will learn to elevate to a higher spiritual level.


The most important part of my dream is that people can learn to love and nurture their environments fully.

Day1

The first drink of the day was 12 oz smoothie by Odwalla.
This really are some good stuff and more where this comes from.



Hot Mint tea in a Venti (Large) size cup



The total amount of ounces I consumed all the way to 7 PM today as be roughly around 275 which is okay but I know I have to find a way to suplement my need for protein or craving the things I would normally eat. I am quite proud of myself and anyone else who can go through the challenge of consuming only liquids for a whole month. Trust me the world is not going to end and you will not drop dead, in fact you may become more hydrated than you have ever been before.

Wellness Wednesdays: Avocados

For Wednesdays the focus will be on nutrition and what is being digested in the body that also has benefits for the skin. Avocados are so beneficial in many ways such as heart health, preventing signs of aging and moisture for the skin. I know that all of the vegetarians and die hard vegans will love all the pictures I have of avocados. If all the ingredients do not really suit you than you can always put the avocados on your skin to hydrate yourself. When avocados are involved there is no need to count your calories, just enjoy their goodness.

 I learned that avocados are known as alligator pears and comes from the Aztec word ahuacati, which you can find the meaning here.


Breakfast has been served, A BEAT crossaintwich (Bacon-Egg-Avocado-Tomato) formerly known as BLT, minus the lettuce plus eggs and avocados. 
Burger King has nothing on this.
