Day 2 of RAW for 30 Days!

This is my second day of eating 100% raw now that my seven day fast is over. I took a picture of my lunch that I had today. It was pretty good. I have been trying to eat pretty light since my fast has been over. This lunch features a cucumber salad with tomatoes and sunflower sprouts on top. I then sliced up oranges and apples (with cinnamon on top) and raisins and pumpkin seeds in the middle. After doing this fast I think I have realized that my body does much better when I am eating light foods. I tend to eat a lot of nuts and avocados (especially when they are in chocolate pudding) and my body seems to just hold on to these in my body. When I eat light foods filled with water they flow through my body much better and I have more energy overall. So my plan is just to eat nuts and avocados during breakfast and lunch and for dinner I want to stick to eating extremely light. I want to try and keep my benefits from the fast going. This is going to be hard for me to do because I love all of the gourmet heavy raw foods but I won't eliminate them I will just be more aware of how much I am eating and stick to eating mostly fruits and veggies. I also ran two miles this morning and I want to keep that up as well. My plan is to wake up at 6:30 and do yoga and follow that with a 2 - 3 mile run. I am going to try and keep taking pictures of my meals and will try and make them as creative as I can to give you ideas for ways to make eating simple exciting. I will say that tonight at dinner here at Kripalu they had mashed potatoes and I really wanted some but was able to stick with raw foods and walk by them.
I took this daisy picture during the sixth day of my fast and just wanted to share it because I thought it was pretty! I hope you like it :-). There are so many beautiful flowers here! Have a great night!
