I was badddd yesterday! I went to Suchi Hana!!!

Oh well... I hadn't been in a REALLY long time and had a stressful day, so I went. I haven't missed much!!! Honestly, the RAW Suchi I make is SOOO much BETTER!!!!

I had mostly fruit today...couldn't stop eating Pineapple!!!!! And, I had several Bananas and 4...yes, 4 APPLES!!!! I had some Organic Black Grapes from my Co-Op, so I made some Grape/Apple juice which was SUPER YUMMY!!!!

My kids keep going back and forth with SAD and RAW.... My 8 yr old daughter keeps telling me that she wants to eat RAW, but when I fix something she says she doesn't want it and ends up eating the Pizza Hubby brings home!!!! But, I'm trying not to force them because I want it to be THEIR choice...but, it's frustrating for me!!!!

Man, I wish I hadn't gotten off of my fast now!!! Well, I can always get back on!!!

One of my best friends told me tonight that I'm wayyyy too hard on myself. Maybe she's right! So, today I did some things that "I" wanted to do!!!!!!!! I did go the gym this morning and worked out, though, but--"I" wanted to!!!!

I do feel the need to be kinder to myself, though...

    Hi Renee, yes.. be very nice to yourself and yes, I feel that it's okay to be like, "Dang it, I can't believe I just did that" for a minute and then just let it go instead of dragging it out to a full day, to a week, and then into two weeks. A friend told me something wise, fine deal with it in the moment, but when that moment is over, that moment is over. It's pointless to drag it over a period of time. That felt like a slap of truth across my face saying, "Hello!" Ever eince, I don't dwell on it anymore, I just move on to make better choices in the future.

    Thank you! I absolutely agree!

    Honestly, I really do LOVE eating RAW! I don't see one slip up as falling off of the wagon... I was RAW before I went and I'm RAW now.... I'm definitely NOT gonna go back again! I'm dealing with my Stresses a LOT better today.

    I heard that there is a new RAW Restaurant here now! Gonna check it out...maybe go there next time...

    What great advice whoa-raw! I'm going to try to repeat that to myself when I get into such a situation. I'm really bad about holding onto things way too long and dragging it out.

    I'm sorry you had such a frustrating day Renee!

    You are definitly still raw. A slight regression does not nullify all you have done before. Way to put it behind you. Hope things are going well for you now. Take it easy on yourself, and check out that new restaurant. :)
