Day 23!

Wow. I’m really surprised I lost another pound this week. It’s not much but its something. I didn’t make the time for exercise last week and figured I wouldn’t lose anything or worse gain some weight.

I had planned on a simple dinner but a friend called and wanted to go to dinner. I talked him into going to Café Gratitude which he loved. I had a raw zucchini lasagna and split a banana ice cream sundae. Everyone in the restaurant was so upbeat and friendly. I feel great myself and have such a sense of well-being. That alone is worth sticking to a raw food diet. I know if I had just eaten a cooked meal of lasagna and had a dairy ice cream sundae I’ll be feeling like crap right now. But instead I feel full and satisfied.

    Thanks, Starfire. The raw lasagna is pretty good. It looks like a pain to make though - zucchini, marinara sauce, ricotta cheese, pesto, etc.
