I have been struggling so much the last few months. This AM I am up to 238 pounds.. I have not weighed this much in years.
I am feeling drawn back to eating more raw fruits and veggies again.
In the past I put too much pressure on myself to be 100% Raw and it lead to an all or nothing attitude and I just couldn't handle the pressure I put on myself.
I realize now that every damn raw veggie or fruit or nut/seed I put in my body is good.. much better than the food lifestyle I have been leading the last 6 months.
I am not going to push to be extremely high raw right now.. at least not yet, I just want to eat lots of high volume raw salads and more cooked vegan even. I am not vegan nor even veggie and don't plan on ever being such. I believe I need meat in my diet I just have to focus on eating much more healthy and MUCH more Raw.
I am going to a Thai restaurant tonight and am planning on the Thai green papaya salad.. it's all raw and also I will get the Summer rolls.. cooked shrimp but nice raw veggies included too.
I am going to be much more realistic.
This morning I woke up dreaming of this spiralized zucchini/yellow squash spaghetti I used to do on raw... it had a wonderful spicy red sauce on it and I loved it and thought.. that would be good on any damn diet. So I am planning on that soon.
I am also craving green smoothies. My poor body and my health has been really neglected lately. That's changing.
