Well I just finished my first 30 days on raw-food only. The first 3 days were like I had the flu. The next week I was 'high' on the lightness I felt (even though I weigh a little over 200lbs.) I started with a juice feast of 5 days. Then lots of fruit. Then lots of salads and green smoothies. But I didn't feel so good. So I went back to high fruit and voila....I felt happy and giddy again. It's as if my body needs to clean out the old cupboards before I can restock with new foods. The last week I added more and more salads and greens. Now I feel more balanced. Nuts tend to ground me, where as fruit makes me 'high'.
Detox is so brutal to me. I have so much physical and emotional junk coming outta me. 50 yrs. of eating SAD has taken a toll on me. Many ailments throughout the body. But some have seem to disappeared.....depression, ear ezcema, asthma and RLS are just a few. Hope everyone else is having a blessed road to raw-food diet bliss!!
Oh yeah, I did lose 10 lbs. also and people say my skin looks 'glowing'. Looking forward to another 30 days on this journey to my raw-freedom!
Peace, Bonnie
