No more need for Afternoon Naps!!!

[ReneeH]

Hey, since going RAW I have noticed that I don't need an afternoon nap anymore!!! I used to take a 2 hour nap in the middle of the day when I ate SAD!!!! Now, I feel energized! I feel really GREAT! I feel like I added 2 more hours to my day!!! Anyone else feel less tired because of RAW foods???

YES!! In fact last night my sister in law asked me what was in my food b/c I was apparenlty bouncing off the walls.

I'm naturally a goofy nerd, but it has been suppressed since becoming an "adult". I guess my teen tard self is being unleashed!!! :D

Anyone else feel less tired because of RAW foods?Yeah, I've noticed. I'm on day 27 of the RAWgust and I am sleeping less and have more energy. I started writing down when I went to sleep and when I woke up (I always wake up naturally - no alarm clocks) after the first week of RAWgust because I noticed my sleep habits were changing and as my records show I am sleeping less and staying awake longer. I know what you mean about getting more hours in your day. The awake hours are also more energetic. Raw foods are RAWsome.

ReneeH - Great for you girlie! I too noticed I needed less sleep (and just lying around) after I went raw! I loved it, and so did my kids! DH didn't mind it too much either!;)

The guy at the health food store asked me what I was taking because I always have so much energy and I told him I was eating raw and now he tells everyone that comes into the store, "she eats raw foods and has more energy than all of us combined."

But seriously I need less sleep and working at the hospital is a breeze now compared to last year when I was always looking for a place to sit down and do my paperwork. I am flying down the halls.

Stacie, I thought you sounded like a health professional in other posts! Are you a nurse? I am a clinical lab scientist--I don't have to fly down halls, but there is a LOT of standing a moving around.

I've also noticed (3 1/2 weeks in) that I am staying up later and have more energy (although it's more subtle). People are starting to notice at work.:D

Im only on Day 3 and I feel vibrant and alive!!! I wake up perky and ready to go at 5:30 in the morning. I sleep well, and my positive attitude is...well...I'm just so in love with life!! (okay, I might sound over the top, but it's true!!). I'm also on the home stretch of a job that I can't stand, ready to follow my bliss! So that doesn't hurt :p
