Wow, what poweful words, "JUST THIS ONCE",
I COULD have this (insert cooked food of choice) "JUST THIS ONCE", but it never is, is it?
I mean I had cooked food, Just this once, and it took me 6 months to get back on raw, LOL
so "just this once" doesn't exsist, "just one bite" ranks right up there too.
and "this one last time" and "only one bite" and "I'll just try it" and "I deserve a treat" LOL
there are so many, I'm sure you've heard them all, and used them all, and I've certainly done them all, I've thought them all. LOL
and here I am living out another one, I ate a baked potato a couple of days ago, I just thought it would be no big deal, I knew I'd feel sick, and icky, but I didn't care, I REALLY wanted to numb out my feelings, HA, didn't work at all!!!
Well, I"m STILL white knuckling it through, and my wayward thoughts, keep going to "just one more meal, you've already eaten cooked, eat the things you really love and miss, THEN go back to raw."
I say "BALDERDASH" this is NOT true, nor will it ever be.
Eating cooked, whether it be one bite or one meal, or one day, or one weekend, or one week or whatever, is too much cooked.
you must STOP NOW!!!, right this minute in mid bite if necessary, and stop eating cooked.
OR you will be destined to eat cooked forever.
and if not NOW? then WHEN??
THAT is the BIG question, WHEN?
why wait to start to become healthy?
why wait to start to become slim?
why wait to start to be happier?
why wait to start to feel good?
why wait, that is the RIGHT question to ask ourselves,
NOT, "why can't I have this?" You know what? YOU CAN have this cooked food, but you will continue to be unhappy with your choices, and your body, and your health and your thoughts, and your self esteme and your ''' whatevers''' until you can finally take control of your choices.
We ALL have choices, endless choices each and every day, do you think that I wake up every morning saying hummm, I'm going to eat raw?
No, I've got too many other things on my mind, I love just going to the kitchen and grabbing a pear or peach or whatever and munching down, I don't WANT to HAVE to think about my choices, I just like it to be natural.
but UNTIL those choices ARE natural, we MUST make them consciously, so
make a choice right now, today, this minute to put down that cooked food "just this once" and eat raw, eat raw the whole day, eat raw at every meal, eat raw for snacks and for dinner and for breakfast and for midnight kitchen raid, "Just this once" eat raw for the entire day, and FEEL great about eating raw, and making that great choice for you body and mind and health,
and remember, people learn by example, I've taught more people about eating raw since I started doing it, than any thing else I could ever do,
so if you wish the people around you to become healthier, then YOU be the one to teach them by example, not necesarily words, BE the raw person in their live who is so healthy.
I hear all the time, how beautiful I am and how radiant I am, and It's not makeup, its' the REAL RAW ME emerging from withint he depths of my SAD past life.
