It has been a few months since I wrapped up my first raw challenge.
While I found the diet intriguing, at this stage in my life, I am not ready for a 100% raw lifestyle. I really struggled physically and mentally during that challenge, and as the months have gone by, I believe [...]
The last day of my first raw diet trial. I say first, as I suspect later down the road there will be another trial or more in my future.
Where am I at right now?
As I stated yesterday, I have added a bit of cooked items back into my diet. Mostly just a couple cooked eggs [...]
Catching up a bit, seems like it has been super busy as of late.
Tomorrow is technically the last day of my raw challenge, although I have been migrating a few small cooked proteins in each day to prepare for transition (and because my stomach finally dictated it). Not much, today I had about a 1/4 [...]
Quick recap to catch up where I am at.
Still 100% raw. Still struggling with my digestion, too much bloating and discomfort that is frustrating me.
Yesterday I finally decided I had enough with the swollen stomach pregnancy look, so I pondered for awhile my choices. One thing I did know for sure, fruit was going to [...]
Well, this is a quick update to say that YES, I am still 100% raw and sticking to my diet.
Have spent the last few days in a funk, motivation has been low, and mentally my energy feels drained. Physically my energy is fine.
I will try and update my details later today, but just wanted to [...]
Well, either I am going through an emotional detox, or I have hormonal issues or something at this point. I have spent the last couple of days in a series of funks. Angry, depressed, lack of confidence, the whole gammit. Yesterday I was mostly just irritable and angry. Today I am depressed. Energy and motivation [...]
I am HALF WAY!!! Quite exciting, glad I made it this far.
Today was a good day, got in a good exercise time, and energy was decent and stable most of the day. Still having some gastric issues, nothing serious, but nothing that is improving yet.
I ate another banana today, still ’sorta’ like them, I think [...]
Half way through!!
Today was better, as my Mondays seem to be. Its always a regroup, high energy, ready to start the week off well sort of day.
Just a quick summary as the evening is quickly getting away from me.
Day 15 Results:
100% Raw diet – Complete (update here)
Wake 4:30 AM – Complete
Meditate 20 mins – Incomplete [...]
Still 100% raw, and still moving forward. It been very hard to not slip on the raw diet the last couple of days. I was feeling worn out from chopping and eating veggies, on Saturday I really just wanted to not ‘think’ about food for the day. I did not eat as well, I succumbed [...]
The weekend, less posting, more time on my hands. Will never quite understand that. I just work better when really busy, much much better.
Spent Saturday relaxing my brain though, the last couple weeks have really pushed me mentally. Its good, but sometimes I need to take that moment of free time to just not ‘think’ [...]
