  1. Day 1

    The past couple of days I have tried to do raw, but have failed miserably - completely out of control binged my way into physical sickness. It became one of those "I'm never going to eat this again so I better eat as much now as possible" things, which really makes no sense at all. Food for me is an emotional comfort, and lately, I have been going through a really rough time. My thoughts have become entirely focused on food and eating. Anytime I'm home, I am eating, eating nonstop ...

  2. Day 11

    Okay,

    So I"ve been doing the raw thing and Its going really well, I think i'm at a point where I have passed and I'm going to stick with this thing, with the way that thing look and taste it really makes you wonder how everyone started eating cooked foods in the first place. I started walking with the two and 7 month old and that is really a great feeling . I can tell that there is a difference in me from last week when we walked. Yahoo, I know I have lost weight, but I'm ...

    I do not have my book yet. It has a long journey from Maine to California. I know it is safe and in Ohio. I love ups tracking. I am so excited that it is on it's way.

    I started on Monday day 1 and was feeling great. Tuesday day 2 was a big success until midmorning and a headache. By mid after noon I was curing myself with food (girlscout cookies followed by cheese stuffed jalapenos wrapped in bacon).

    Today is Wednesday - Day one again - How nice it is to start over. ...

  4. Wed/ Day 17

    I realized this morning how much going raw has already done for me!

    Two weeks ago, my allergies were so bad that I could not even breathe with my mouth closed. Now I'm clear. I still have the sniffles here and there, especially since it's becoming spring and more pollen is in the air, but I notice an improvement!

    I have more energy. My energy levels are steady from the time I open my eyes at 5am to the time I put my head down on the pillow at 10pm. No mood swings, ...

  5. Day 14 Lentil Sprouts

    I have been getting a few e-mails and a comment yesterday about how I eat my lentil sprouts (in the morning). This is actually a funny story. My current project is in another city. I have a 1.5 hour commute one way. So, I eat my breakfast in the car. I put my lentil sprouts (with nothing else on them) in a bowl and grab handfuls and eat them as I am driving. I find that eating them by hand is easier than eating them with a spoon while driving. However, I still end up spilling a bunch of sprouts ...
