I only found your blog today, and when I read this post I could completely relate to your experience at dinner time. I have been dealing with freaking out about what I eat a lot recently… possibly orthorexia but I am not certain. I am 17 and going through the most stressful time of my life with final exams coming up, and while I want to get over this fear I have of eating unhealthy foods, I am afraid that if I start now it will just build even more stress!
Also, I am planning to do overseas volunteer work in Asia for 6 months, and I don’t know what to do if unhealthy food is given to me in a foreign country… How do you keep with eating a balanced diet when you also want to experience the foods of another culture?

I have just discovered your blog and I LOVE it. I am a vegetarian but still a young teenager so I try to get as much protein as I can. I am very into treating the body right, and I know your blog will make it so much easier. For one of your next posts I would really love to hear what your fave snacks are. I know mine are coconut bounce balls and good ol’ nuts.

P.S- Yoga is my best friend and I need one of those ‘Yoga Junkie’ t-shirts.

OMGGG cashew butter. Best thing on earth. Any kind of nut butter is simply crack cocaine for me.

I get terrible anxiety over food especially when my routine is thrown out of sync. Trying to work on it! 🙁

YAY I’m glad I’m not alone in the golden raisin obsession. My mom was making fun of me all weekend because she isn’t into them. I looove them and just bought the freshest, fattest ones at the farmer’s market! And I agree, my mom IS gorgeous. I can only hope I age as well as her… and wow! What did you have abdominal surgery for? I am so proud of you for incorporating eggs and yogurt. It seems small, but having more variation and being able to listen to our bodies is so important. Yay for veggies and balance!! Xox have a fabulous weekend my love

I just love raisins in general. They’re so sweet! I’m so happy that you’re sharing what you’re eating, because I’m super nosey and love looking at what other people are having hehe. Your mom is really quite stunning. The relationship you guys have makes me feel all warm and fuzzy -I can feel the love just looking at the photos! Impromptu desserts and almond milk coffee? I’m in! Just as an aside, I’ve definitely been trying to incorporate more balance into my life because of you. I had surgery in April, so the following year, I switched to a fully plant-based diet to relieve the pain -that the abdominal surgery relieved. I’ve now been able to incorporate eggs and some yogurt again. I was a little afraid that the pain would return (even though that technically wasn’t possible after surgery!), but I still went through some emotions. Anyways, it’s just really nice to be able to eat some foods again that made me uncomfortable in the past, I know not in the same way as you, but a different kind of uncomfortable. Does that make sense? hehe. Veggies and balance for the win!

Love ya girl xo

I love your honesty and it’s a stark contrast to many bloggers who make it out as though recovery is bloody sunshine and rainbows. Vegan rainbows.

Anyway, keep November free cos this Aussie is hitting up LA. Boom.
