Cravings gone

[Helen121]

Hi all,

Have been doing a colon cleanse since last Saturday and a parasite cleanse since Thursday. Was having some cravings all week and wasn;t really worried about eating 100% raw. I figured the raw I was eating was good enough and much more important to be kind to myself whilst cleansing.

Was feeling pretty grotty for the latter part of the week, very tired and foggy headed. Today, though I have woken with the desire to be all raw. No cravings for anything cooked and its long past lunchtime here. I feel very calm about it all and just going with the flow.

I listened and read to a couple of interviews last week with Shazzie, Drumhil and someone that works for Dr Doug Graham but I can't remember her name. They were all saying the same thing though about how food is just a means to living a fulfilled life and having all the energy you need to be totally present in that life. It suddenly struck me that I spend so much time thinking about being 100% raw that its stucking my energy away from me. I know that having experienced the benefits I can never stop thinking about being in that state so why not just do it and be in that state permantly without having to worry and stress about wanting to do it??

Hope that makes sense?? maybe others out there relate??

I feel you when you say sometimes you think to much about being 100%. I use to do this alot and failed big time. I have learned that it works out better when I just plan to eat raw everyday, if I choose to eat something that is not raw I don't get all worked up.

I can understand the cravings being gone as well, I think this is where you find that you need to do other things in place of eating.

I didn't realize just how much I thought about food until going raw. Raw really does open the doors to do other things because you are not spending all of the time thinking about food or making food.
