  1. Can't afford to be raw for a few days

    I haven't been raw for a few days. We sort of ran out of raw veggies and fruit sooner than expected and can't afford to get more till Friday at the soonest.

    I hate this. At least I do have cooked veggies to eat so I don't have to have meat or pasta or sandwiches.

    I wish my family was raw with me. Then I wouldn't have to buy two types of food and it would be cheaper.

    I'm not changing the counter though. Even though I won't be raw for a few days ...

  2. So far it's a challenge

    So far it’s been a bit of a challenge. I did great for the first 3 days. But today it’s hard.

    After making the kids breakfast I poured myself a bowl of cereal. I was so tired (hadn’t woken up completely yet) and I found myself eating cereal instead of having fruit like I normally would. What’s worse, the cereal had cows milk.

    My belly has not forgiven me almost all day. I don’t feel well. I had an apple for lunch. I was going to have some of this broccoli quiche ...

  5. Tummy troubles

    One of the reasons I went raw is because of tummy troubles. Everytime I eat cooked food, especially meat, I get severe stomach aches. And if it's meat then it acts like a laxative and I can't get out of the bathroom.

    Yet, for some reason I keep on eating cooked every now and again. Then it's pain city. I mean the pain was once so severe that I went to the hospital just to make sure it wasn't something serious. I've had endocopies and colonoscopies. Neither of which showed anything. ...
