Breakfast: 2L+ Smoothie made of 2 celery stalks, 2 big spinach leaves, bunch of grapes, handfull of cranberries, one banana, and one apple.

Lunch: Onion bread/cracker broken into chip size pieces with a salsa type dip made from an avacado, half a red onion, 4 cloves garlic, 2 big tomatoes, bunch of cilantro, red pepper, and the juice from one lime. More than i could eat in one meal.

Dinner: about to make a massive coleslaw salad with one big red cabbage, one cucumber, one tomato, half a red onion, 1 clove garlic, 1 big carrot, one orange and one green pepper, about a half cup of vinager, close to a quarter cup evoo, and some salt and pepper to taste. I'm kinda muchie right now so i think i'll eat a couple oranges while i make it.

Hmmmm, sounds like a lot of food when i write it all down but i am in the middle of moving and have been packing all day and burning a lot of energy. If i need a snack tonight i'll probably eat the left over salsa dip on sliced cucumber, good spicy and cool mix.

Edit to add: The slaw was a little too acidic to eat it all so i only ate half of it. Since i was still hungy i ate most of a coconot to balance out the tangy slaw.

I'm amazed at how little you eat! I've been in the school of no less than 1200 calories a day or your metabolism will slow down. Old school, I guess. I'm trying not to think about calories at all. I'm only on Day 6 today of my raw journey. I'm working on just eating when I'm hungry, even if that means 1 hour after I just ate. I keep to fruits in the mornings. I don't have a juicer, so I depend of just cut fresh fruit or a smoothie that can be made in my Black & Decker blender and more fresh fruit whole or cut for mid-morning snack. I still don't have my hunger under control in the mornings yet. It's usually a salad for lunch and more fruit or nuts mid-afternoon. Dinner I'm using Alissa's recipes from her book right now. I'm pleased so far, but still missing some cooked foods.

I had juice this morning- orange, apple, cantelope, carrott, cucumber, smidgin' of ginger and a few bits of pumpkin I had left over from a raw dessert... i had soo much energy after this!

Lunch was a green smoothie- curly and dino kale, chard, banana, wild blueberries, goji berries, and I threw in a few bits of cacao nibs.. was in a chocolate-y mood! :drool:

Snacked on alfalfa sprouts

Dinner was simply guacamole & some sweet potato/corn chips a friend had made that I snuck a couple handfuls home.. sooo delicious.

Dessert is going to be some cashew squares... mmm.
