Thank you all for being here

Hi all,
I posted yesterday about having a very tough weekend and I want to say I'm thankful for this board, as just having it around kept me on track. One thing I didn't mention in the post was that I had already bought a bunch of junk food I was planning on binging on. Then after I posted I really thought about why I was wanting it and came up with the answer that it wasn't even that I was craving junk food. It was just a gut reaction to the stress and frustration I was feeling (and being anxious about using my kitchen with the roach problem - see my "Difficult weekend" thread for the full story). I felt like the past 3 days of raw have been really enjoyable and that I really needed and wanted to stay raw, especially with the stress I'm dealing with. Filling up on junk food was only going to make my anxiety worse.

So I trashed all the junk (in the dumpster outside, not my own trash :D), washed some lettuce, cherry tomatoes, and baby carrots and made some raw fudge. And I felt so much better about it!

We are proud of you for making such a healthful decision. You will be glad you did. I can't tell you how many things I have given away shortly after I bought them because I rethought my choices. I find myself saying, "what were you thinking?"

I have found this board to be a big help to me also. It is a source of inspiration, support, motavation, information, and food for thought. I also am thankful for this board. :)
