Day 13 - My vita-mix came!!!

Rate this Entry
Today was a 1/2 raw, 1/2 cooked food day. I've fallen off the wagon, yet today is still day 13 for me... moving forward... I can feel a huge difference when I am 100% raw and when I'm partially raw/cooked vegan like today. I had a delicious dinner at Genghis Grill - some tofu, some udo noodles, lots of veggies and a spicy peanut curry sauce. But now my stomach feels heavy and bloated. This morning I had my organic honey nut o's again and my nose was running immediately after. So, my science experiment has suggested that I might have some latent mild food allergies - wheat maybe. I also react to sugar in an unpleasant way. So, knowing this, I feel even more encouraged that I have found the raw vegan way of life. I think that most days I will eat 100% raw if feasible and occasionally I will have a cooked meal. I really feel that this will work for my life! Tomorrow I want to go back to 100% raw so I can feel light again.

My Vita-mix came today. I was a blending fool! How fun - we made (among other things) strawberry-banana ice cream. DEEEEE-LISH!! my kids gobbled it up, too. So healthy -it's basically fruit, although I did add a little raw honey to sweeten it a bit. What a great machine. It's so powerful it scared me a little bit! :)

Well, have a great raw weekend everyone!

    Congrats on the Vita-mix!!! I use mine everyday. You'll never ever stop being a blending fool on raw!!

    Yeah, I've "fallen off the wagon" many times in the past 6 years. It's all part of the process. Each day is a new day to encorporate more and more raw. Your doing fab Tinacampy!
