I feel wonderful! So high-spirited and alive. I am not even 100% raw. I eat raw breakfast, lunch and snacks. It was difficult at first, but now I crave uncooked foods, and at dinner feel somewhat strange eating cooked, warm food. It almost feels too heavy, even though I am cooking light. I am very proud of myself. My husband is more so. He never really believed that I could do this.
Every morning my body just screams for a cool smoothie! Everyday they get more delicious, as I figure out new combinations. I am not hungry until lunch, but even at lunch, I am not famished. I have a huge plate of spinach salad with different veggie combos and dressings. YUM! If I need a snack before dinner, it is usually a fruit plate, or a bunch of yummy nuts.
I few days ago a made a HUGE pot of vegetable soup. I have been eating that for dinner for the past three days. It is so filling and so gorgeous and satisfying. My hubby has been eating it along with some meat. Ella loves it. I will have the rest tonight, and then start having a raw salad with something cooked like more healthy soup, or whole grain pasta, with olive oil, herbs, and yummy fresh tomatoes.
I am not sure if I will ever go 100%, but I feel great already and think this is something I can definitely stick with long term. I don't know if I have lost any weight, as I don't have a scale, but I can say my pants are baggy, and I can tell I have lost some cheek fat. My skin is shiny, I have not a bump on it. My hair and nails seem moisturized and strong. I go to the bathroom everyday around the same time, and I think that is just a sign of something sound and wholesome happening inside me. I am so thrilled. I do have to restock produce already, but that's just fine, as I can't imagine abandoning my raw foods now!
