Ok so it has been 8 days sense i decided to go on raw foods. I start each day out with a green smoothie filled with kale greens, celery, apple,pineapple,lemon. Thanks to the book Green for Life. It gives me lots of energy and fills me up too. Guess what, I am not hungry all day anymore!
And i have to say I love living raw (so far). My sister swares i will began craving meat and looking at people like pork chops soon, but i beg to differ. I think i have completely made up my mind and it has been a long time coming for me to decide to give up meat and such. I am pretty firm in my conviction, i am just so happy that Mr. Big decided to do this for a month with me so i don't have to overcome any temptations.
But I purposely went to the store and around cooked food just to see how i would react and actually it was not so bad. My main problem is sweets. i love ice cream and cake and chocolate and stuff. But that is all good too because there are so many things i can make with raw chocalate and natural sweetners like agave.
I also find that i love raw granola, i had some for breakfast with hemp seed milk this morning, yummmmy!
I am also learning to be a raw food chef. I made this green seaweed pate wrap and it is a wonderful great taste in the mouth. And filling without the worry of calorie counting!
Also i have released 5lbs! So that is a plus. Looking forward to continuing on the journey.
I made my own ice cream with nuts and seeds and added a banana and it is yummy. I never knew real food could taste so good.
