I was a little mad in my last post!
I already know this, but going raw takes a clear head (focus) and organization (preparedness). Not being prepared totally sets oneself up for failure...even if bulldozing through, lol.

I am not discouraged though....more quickly, I recognize the common obstacles...I saw that I was totally unprepared to go raw and did NOT beat myself up about it.

I am still being mindful...and still making healthier choices more and more often...still off the dairy, still appreciating the effects! (and the gluten) It is all helping a lot although I still feel like it's tentative and I'm afraid to level up just yet. Still I am at times lusting over milk chocolate. It doesn't last but I am always thankful that I don't have to say no to more.

At the same time...my endometriosis and general physical state, makes me concerned and realize how far I need to go and when I look at it, it is easy to lose sight of my current progress and benefits...and the fact that likely tomorrow I will be down 5 pounds from my highest weight.

So, essentially, I feel like I need to stabilize what I've built so far, but I also feel like I need to move forward for my health. It's a situation that is bothering me.
