Day 1 is tomorrow

Rate this Entry
Instead of becoming more nervous about tomorrow, I'm trying to become excited. To do that, I have to believe in myself. This is something I'm capable of doing and will do because I've set my mind to it. I've gone back and forth while trying to go raw for the past month. I get off track when I allow myself to have any cooked food, because then I want more and more.
My goal is to do 3 days of just juice (mostly vegetable) and then finish out the rest of the 30 days by eating fruits and veggies, some dried fruit when needed but no nuts or seeds. This is because I need to keep my fat intake low in order to actually overcome candida.
I need to prepare myself in multiple ways. Because I've had to force myself to be on a strict anti-candida diet for the past 6 months, I've learned to spend way too much time thinking about food. Also, I need to be prepared, have my food ready in the morning. And, I need meditate. I have to be at peace and focused on this goal.
I hate what cooked foods do to me. I hate being sick and sad and I refuse to be so any longer. And at the end of the day tomorrow I will feel so proud to have taken this path and followed through with my juice fast.
Any words of advice?
Thanks,
Sabrina:)

    Alissa recommends eating a LOT the first few days b/c they're hard enough w/out adding in fasting... Just a thought.

    Whatever you decide, good luck!
