Healthier Than Thou

I used to be so militant.. I would totally sabotage myself and my Raw Food endeavors by feeling I have to be 100% Raw.. or nothing.  For years I did this to myself.  I wanted in all honesty to define myself as a "Raw Foodist".  I no longer believe I have to be 100% ANYTHING.  I love juice fasts but I don't have to do 30 days to be "successful".  I love Raw but I don't have to be 100% to be successful.  I love yoga but I don't have to worry about my fat thighs and not "fitting in".  

Perfectionism truly is the enemy of all good.
