It’s been just a bit more than 48 hours now since I last ate cooked food. I’m back on the raw food wagon again and plan on staying there this time.
Why did I do it? Do “what”? Well, I can tell you all kinds of reasons why I went back to cooked food, but that’s not the point. I went back to raw foods simply because I remember the way I felt last summer (when my weight was much less than it is now). I remember the energy I had, the walks I took, the way I could run and play with my son and daughter on the playground. I remember the demands I could place on my body when I needed to (like not getting enough sleep while traveling).
Quite simply, I liked what I had and have decided that I will find a way to overcome the obstacles I encountered that led me to more or less abandon the 80/10/10 raw food diet.
So I’m back on the raw food diet, and my goal this time is to do it for one year. According to Roger Haeske, that should be enough time to truly break any cooked food addiction (and it is a physical addiction). Time will tell.
I’m also going to be exercising a lot more this time, plus I’m working on expanding my knowledge of preparing raw foods. The exercise will encourage me to eat right, and the recipes and etc. will help give me more variety, which should also help me stay on this diet.
I’ll be making a few blog posts soon that talk about the resources I’ve found that are going to help me stay on track this time.
Gotta go; time for a green smoothie…
