clap! clap! clap! clap! clap!
I intend for this to be a two month RAW FOOD experiment. I hope to find that my energy increases and that my girth decreases. It is not as difficult as it sounds really. Just eat plant matter that is RAW and you are on your way. I juice vegetables and fruit to make lovely health drinks and I make lovely green smoothies. I make large oversized salads and I use avocado in just about everything even to make chocolate mousse! I have learnt to make a RAW cheesecake which is delightful and I have made my own trail snacks ... all with RAW foods and NO cooking at all.
Beloved is not too charmed by this change, especially as he is cooking most of his own food. As I get used to this change I'll probably take back some of his food preparation as well. I refuse to bring junk into the house, so he has to go out and purchase anything he wants that is not healthy. I must however say that he is beginning to ask for a smoothie or salad when he sees me making them and I am delighted to oblige! He has also perfected his carrot/apple/ginger drink made with the juicer and I am delighted to help him with all taste tests necessary.
As far as my rather unhealthy relationship with food is concerned, I have made a useful affirmations powerpoint which I meditate on daily and this has become very helpful in keeping me focused on all this RAW eating.
well done, how long are going to keep eating raw? This is something I would like to try soon.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue, I'm going RAW for two months - at which point I am going on a permaculture course and will have to see what foods are presented there. I should be able to continue RAW, if not mostly RAW for the duration of the course.
ReplyDeleteIf I can manage it - I'll continue RAW for as long as it serves my needs :)
