    I'm definatley noticing my detox easing today - headache is gone & mucus is almost gone.

    I am also noticing that my appetite is easing up a bit so my meals are a little smaller. Instead of fresh veggie rolls leaving me hungry, I was satisfied; instead of 2 or 3 nori rolls for dinner, 1 1/2 was enough.

    I guess I'm adjusting to the lighter feeling of a complete RAW meal (instead of continuing to eat to mimic the SAD heavy fullness) and perhaps my system is getting ...

    I'm feeling a bit better today - not collapsing into tears at the drop of a hat. Still detoxing in other ways - killer headache and freaky mucus. But all in all, I'm feeling OK.

    B- green smoothie
    L- cabbage rolls
    S- green smoothie
    D- tacos, apple

    I made it through the weekend all RAW! Yeah!

    Today I got hit with major emotional detox. I was crying at the drop of a hat - sometimes for no apparent reason at all. And once I started, I couldn't stop. By lunchtime I had spent 2 hours on 3 crying jags. I had intense cravings for cooked food - cheese in particular, but really for just about anything. I just wanted to stuff, stuff, stuff - binge to discomfort to soothe and distract. That was my SAD pattern. Today I broke that ...

    Day 7 - first Sunday of the RAW challenge. This is the day that I have lost my RAW in the past. It would start with a soy latte, then it'd be rice noodles in a fresh wrap, then it'd be muffins, cookies, or whatever...

    But today, I'm holding strong! Yeah! I'm countering the SAD urges by making all kinds of RAW goodies today. Almond butter balls and watermelon are saving me as well!

    B- melon
    S- smoothie, banana (kept me RAW while grocery shopping with a hyper ...

    Wow! I have so much energy today! It's only day 5 and I feel RAWesome!

    I can also tell that my thyroid has healed itself a bit more. I am absolutely amazed at how living RAW is alowing my body to heal my thyroid!

    Over the years my thyroid has gotten progressively worse and I have required increasing dosage of synthetic thyroid hormone to be functional. Before going RAW, I used to be on 350mcg of synthetic thyroid hormone. Now I'm on 200mcg and I know it's too ...
