My before and after

Hi everyone! I posted these pictures earlier to my other blog and it got so much attention and positive feedback I decided to post them here as well. I have to remind you that this is a result from two years time, cleaning my diet from all the junk food and transforming to high carb raw vegan lifestyle.

Before I was eating typical finnish diet, lots of meat, bread, eggs, dairy not to mention all the junk food, alcohol, cigarettes and so on. Today I follow high carb low fat raw vegan diet, and I give my best to be 100% raw. Even though it's not entirely the diet which has made me feel and look my best yet, I have to say that during these two months of following this kind of lifestyle has really improved my energy in my workouts and my activities. I have loads of energy to do things and I get more things done too and lots of time for meditating as well. My muscle definition has improved too very quickly over the last two months and I get a lot of comments that I have gotten smaller even though I haven't lost any weight during these last two months. Two years age i might have been somewhere around 62kg, I don't remember anymore and now I am about 55kg. I still have some fat to lose and I'm getting there, I'm sure of it :)

To tell you the truth I was actually quite amazed to see these pictures and difference between them, cause I might go several months looking myself in the mirror and not seeing any results or differences at all. I'm so happy I took this before picture two years ago, I decided then that I would look and feel awesome and do exactly what I'm doing now, showing the world I did it and this just the beginning! The before photo really is a reminder of the old me, the nails, the hair, the bikini, the apartment I was living in... Seems like I have changed so much as a person too, not just my body. I don't recall being so depressed or unhappy at that time, but it seems like now I have more meaning and purpose in my life. I do more things which I truly enjoy and which make me happy. You can see it written all over my face :)
