dragging myself back on the raw food wagon

[Veganmama]

I have fallen so far of the wagon i hve totally lost sight of it:( I was about 80% raw sometimes 100% for almost 2 years and i had never felt better. I don't do it for weight loss that's just a extra benift for me it's more about my state of mind and my emotional and spiritual health.

Being Raw saw me through the hell i was living in and the strength to leave, but once i had escaped the torture i started toturing myself. I started eating an obseen amount of junk food, especially dairy and even a little bit of chicken, i've been a vegetarian for 20 years and vegan for about 6 ????? I even took up smoking :confused: :mad: after i had quite the habit for 5 years.

So i'm not sure how i'm going to get back to Raw but it's something i think of daily and am determined to get back to, i know my weak points i am fine all day but after the kids go to bed at night and i have a chance to think about stuff i turn to the evil sugar. I have trouble evn making through one day so brealing the habit is going to be a toughy

I'm hopin gto get reinspired here and gain some support, thanks for readin and wish me luck..

Hello Veganmama and welcome back to healthier eating!! I hope and pray you can quit smoking too for yourself and for your children.

Welcome back Veganmama, and I do wish you success in reaching your goals, and your highest vision of yourself.

I understand what you say about the weak point in your day, because that used to be a big challenge of mine. The only way I figured out to change that, was to change my evening routine. Create a new ritual for after the kids go to bed that will occupy, engage and challenge your mind and emotions. Something suited to you and your individual visions.

Keep us posted on your journey so we can cheer you on and support you.
And again, welcome back. It is nice to see you.

Warmly~
Carmel

Veganmama, I know where you are at, I've been there as I'm sure many of the people here have. You just have to DO IT. I was in the same space and I finally had enough and realized that I can't let food control my life! Today is day 28 for me and I can honestly say that it's much easier the longer you go. Just commit to one day and then another and after a week or so the cravings will diminish and it will get easier! Good luck!
