Day 8

So glad it’s Friday. I need some catch up sleep.

This morning I made a different but great smoothie. I started with wtr, then almond milk, bananas. Kept asking myself what else. Was short on time and needed to make a decision. Carrots. Tasted it and It Was So Good. Then I put kale in it. Ah shucks. Not so good now. I took it to work and dranked at lunch…carrot tasting all the way. Oh well, wait until tomorrow morning, I’m going to see if I can create that moment of bliss before the kale.

Today was a little tougher. The smoothie didn’t fill me up as usual or I didn’t drink enough, so I was really hungry around noon. Chewed on the corn cracker that I stashed in the frig at work. Toss the rest away. I hate that corn in my teeth. Lunch was the collard leaf with the stuff mentioned yesterday. Nope. Can’t eat the collard leaf. Too thick or something. I think I will try lettuce next. Then before work, I was Hungry again. So I got out my flax type crackers and put PB on it. That was good.

A little voice in my head started trying to get me to go back to a diet that worked pretty well for me…in the beginning. I gained back the weight eventually though. Figured since I was still on this raw eating for a week and not losing as fast as I would like to (like a lb a day I wish) then maybe I could…yada yada. No, I need to stick to this. I must keep raw as high as possible for my health and body.

Fridays after work I like to buy something to eat that is Good and emotionally satisfying. So I had a rough moment. Finally decision was to go to my fav grocery store and buy a salad. Defiant me, decided to put non raw dressing on it and non raw cottage cheese. Everything else was raw. I haven’t had dressing on my salad in years.

Got home, put it in a bowl and began to eat. It was not hitting the spot. Knew I need to do something drastic or my resentment of not eating what I shouldn’t eat would flare up and that would lead to “lets cheat”. So I put salt on it. Bam! It Was So Good then. I wanted to go out and buy another one.

Tomorrow I plan to go get another one. A Bigger One. I haven't had a salad since starting this challenge.
