I have decided that I'm happiest with the raw diet...no other diet makes me as excited, creative or healthy as raw does.

Today I made myself a huge lovely salad with spinach, romaine, tomato, apple, fresh basil, avocado, some olive oil, garlic powder and salt and pepper. I was in HEAVEN. ...obviously my body liked and needed.

I have decided that I will go easy on myself in that if I have any transgressions from the diet, I will simply forgive and learn if needed. Today, I didn't pack enough food and didn't make those brownies last night, but I will make them tonight because today I LEARNED, lol...or perhaps remembered...that one needs to eat a lot more starting out and needs some treats!

I'm going to pick myself up some Lara bars, cashew cookie (my one and only favorite) for emergencies. Do some brownies tonight...and also want to try therawtarian.com's carrot cake recipe...so that is coming down the pipeline! I want to take pictures and totally get sucked back in. :)
I'll also be picking up some tomatoes and trying out shelshel's soup recommendation tonight! Oooh, how I truly miss the experimental, creative fun that is this diet.

I KNOW that if I just put one foot in front of the other, eventually I will be walking smoothly with it. And I am so lucky to have done this before, so in many ways this is really easy to pick back up again.
