Being sick on & off for almost a month has really screwed with my goals. I went full time at my job & still teach boot camps in the wee hours of the morning. So I am all like all over the place. Rest? Somewhere it happens. Raw foods, when I remember to eat-lol! I was all stoked to go to work & workout at lunch (cuz there is all kinds of fitness equipment everywhere) & then go to kickboxing & I'll be damned if I didn't start coughing all over the place this morning. This time it's sitting in my chest, not my head. So I can breathe, just not deeply.
My kickboxing place called me asking me why I was AWOL. Ha! Now I have zero time to train for my triathlon, but I truly would rather be kickboxing. Anyway, my point is, that I am trying so hard to change my lifestyle & then I keep getting sick. I wonder what that's about? Seriously. Like am I that afraid of change that my body responds this way? Are raw foods actually the devil reincarnate? Ok not really b/c every person I see that is 100% raw looks FABULOUS. Then I am like, should I sell out & take supplements? Nah...I just am confused. Plain & simple. Am I trying to make something happen that's not supposed to right now? Like I can get my workouts done & change my food along the way. Do y'all know I am turning all red & getting all flushed typing this? WOW-what a reaction I am invoking just talking about this.
I tend to spazz out sometimes & wish like hell I was in a Southwest Airlines Commercial - 'Wanna get away?' I am itching to travel & explore & see what the world has to offer me. Oh wait, I forgot, I like have responsibility :( Boo! I am trying to research how to become an archaeologist. I have always wanted to do that. I know, it's insane, but I am not through learning from this world! Anyway, I am totally rambling now. Blah. I guess only time will tell if I can do the raw foods thing 100%. I hope everyone is well & I look forward to more epiphanies, or something.
Hugs!
Now, you know, I am not a doctor and this is certainly not a diagnosis of any sort, but there is a term used when your are removing "toxins" from you body. Not everything is as toxic to everyone so it could be different from one person to the next. You can find an example here of candida die off:

I'm not suggesting you have a candida overgrowth, just thinking maybe you are experiencing a "die off" to something else your body doesn't like? IDK. :)
Good luck! Hope you feel better soon!
Becky-I will check that out. I have often wondered if I am overrun with yeast. My problem right now is that I am so busy that I can't afford to detox. I will def look at it to see if I fit the symptoms. Hugs!
