Tuesday...

So, this 100% raw goal that I have had for November is not quite working out. I did eat mostly raw foods. However, on Sunday I slipped up by eating two vegan cookies from whole foods bakery and two odwalla bars and vegetable sushi. Yesterday, I had a lot of vegetable juice, a green smoothie with kale, apples, a salad and then for dinner I had half of a baked potato with my guacamole on top. It is amazing how much avocados taste just like butter to me when I have them on top of my baked potato. I did make a raw pasta with a white sauce that I got from the book pure food and wine. I will post the picture tonight when I get home. I think again I end up eating other food when I am feeling down and depressed. I have noticed a lot of positives by eating a high percentage of raw foods such as no more painful periods, healthier hair, skin, nails, never get sick any more! However, my moods are still all over the place. Some people who eat raw foods say the feel so happy and peaceful and all of these wonderful things and those are all of the things that I want to feel. So, I don't know if I just need to eat 100 % raw for a period of time to get to that point or if maybe for me raw is only a part of the solution. I wish that I had a supportive environment here in Atlanta for raw foods to inspire me to stick it out. In the meantime I will continue to take care of myself and trust that my body is healing physically, mentally, and spiritually.
