  1. March 12th-1st raw day

    So, I was really good today-ate everything I said I would. I only screwed up once-eating an organic wheat cracker with some raw goat cheese. Oops. But other than that, I was a good girl.

    I did have issues with the nut dishes, feeling a little nauseous after eating the mock salmon pate. So, I am going to go pretty easy on the nut dishes.

  4. Day 12 Raw Birthday Weekend

    Well, my birthday was over the weekend and although I have been raw the past four days - I have been eating/grazing quite a bit and I have not kept track of my daily food log.

    I made Alissa's Date Nut Torte for my birthday cake and I just loved it.

    I need to get back on track today with eating more reasonable portions since I ended up gaining a pound over the last four days of birthday celebrating. I want to lose 5-10, so gaining one pound is taking me in the wrong ...
