Day 9 (depression)

Rate this Entry
Well here's day 9.

I haven't weighed myself as per my determination not to look at the scale. But I still feel like I haven't lost any weight. Feeling a bit down and frustrated. I really don't want weight to be the all encompasing aspect of Raw for me. I want to focus on all the other positive aspects of Raw and the other things it is attracting into my life. But my weight has been such a huge issue for so long that it's hard to detach myself from that aspect.

I know yesterday I said I was going to Juice fast it up but I still haven't started that. There's still some solid Raw food that I'm finishing off first before doing the Juice fast. So hopefully tomorrow the fast will start. I'm trying to tell myself I'm fasting because of cleansing and not weight loss, but who am I trying to fool? One day at a time I guess... we'll see what tomorrow brings.
