    Ok, so week one raw is down, and I'm eight pounds lighter! I've heard of people who do raw Mon-Fri and eat whatever they want on Sat and Sun...in moderation of course. They haven't experienced difficulty with staying raw throughout the week. I wonder if I should try this... Are there still benefits to eating like that?

    Starting Raw Weight: 178.6...June 7, 2007
    Week 1 Weight: 170.0 lbs...June 15, 2007

    Day 1 again!!
    Just spent three hours in the kitchen. Made carrot pecan burgers, blueberry pie, mock salmon pate and rawkin green lemonade.I took Starfire's advice and went back to read Alissa's pages on staying on track. It is my life!!! I should not get sooo influenced by others. I have all the tools to succeed. I just need to be prepared. That's where I get into trouble.

    well, i go to pick up my bf at that airport here shortly....
    i think 2 good things will happen:
    i think i will get used to getting up at 5am to exercise because he wants to get up at 5 and run so i can do my pilates while he is gone
    and i think i will be able to get my eating down to about 12-1400 calories, a more comfortable range for me. even tho i have been avg about 1700 or so, and am losing on that,i know my body and i know i am much more comfortable a little bit lower. ...
