    This is just not funny. I'm a vegetarian, never having problems eating no meat, but suddenly I just want to eat a medium rare steak. I'm not going to do it. I think it has to to with me eating/drinking less dairy than I was used to. I still eat a bit, like a cracker with cremecheese, but my goal is not to eat dairy at all.
    AND I WANT SUGAR! Four days off sugar now. Only a very little tiny bit of honey ones a day, but I'm really craving that tiramisu.

    here I am...day 7 at 100% raw. Doing good so far...no real cravings or feelings of deprivation, though, I melted part of my food processor in the dishwasher, and am waiting for the new part to arrive in the mail. So, I've been without food processor for 4 days now. I am missing my fettucini alfredo, and want to make the pad thai. My husband, Steven, wants it too, though he is definately NOT raw, he does enjoy my food...even the green smoothies. In fact, on Sunday when I fed him the fettucini ...

    Well, it was nice to weigh in yesterday, but I'm actually up a few lbs from last week b/c I have been eating too much - raw mostly but the extra stuff (cereal, cookies etc) is getting me... I was 141 w/ jeans and shirt on, so probably about 139 w/out - still up 2 lbs. But, that's ok...
