Addictive eating no more...

I'm not sure how it happened, but I've been raw since the first day of Autumn and I feel pretty darn good! Not sure where to begin except that I made the decision not knowing it was the first day of fall. It realized this a couple of days into it and it seems quite fitting for it to fall on this date. For the longest time I've been trying to come up with the "perfect date" to start my new way of eating...New Years Eve, New Years Day, April 1st, (my AA birthday), July 1st, my wife's birthday....I don't know why, but I wanted to make it a special day.

I'm sure I'll start blogging lots more now...I've got lots I need to get out of my system...I just hope I make sense!

Today I felt like I had some detox symptoms...like I do when I eat dairy....I started sneezing a few times, then my nose just ran and ran for 30 minutes maybe. Hmmmm....I expect lots of detox symptoms in the days and weeks to come!

I'm happy to finally start my journey!

Food Log:

64 oz of green smoothy
64 oz of water
1/2 cantelope
couple slices of orange
nut burger from cafe gratitude
some live nuts (from whole foods)
few figs
some sliced tomatoes
12 oz of kombucha tea

My plan is to start a fast either tomorrow or Monday. I will prepare the juice tomorrow...enough for a few days.
