Day 52

Yesterday I did really well except for the alcohol I consumed (Midori and Coke... so yum... so bad!) Fortunately, I am out of Coke so no more alcohol!

Yesterday was the first day I ate nothing cooked (cause I was completely out of vegie burgers). And I did okay! I had a lunchtime smoothie with frozen summer fruits and some green powder and stevia. It was... drinkable... but probably not really naturally sweet enough. Maybe a banana would help? Or some dates?? Just something a little sweeter in it. I find Stevia makes it taste a little odd, even though it's sweet. However, better than sugar!

Hmm... I made the kids cheesy pasta for tea and YUM it looked and smelled so good! ARGH. I usually do pretty well not eating food that I shouldn't, and resisting temptation, but there are times it's still hard! Still I just had my green smoothie and I'm not suffering any ill effects from resisting temptation! And tonight I will have no alcohol, so it will be pretty much a completely raw day. Ooooh! (Well except for my non-raw protein powder lol).

Hmm well here is an issue. I have a savoury craving. I think this was generally satisfied each night by having a vegie burger or sausage or something, but now I haven't had it I'm craving it! Humm hopefully the craving goes soon! It's not like I'm craving junk or anything, although I COULD start craving it if the itch isn't scratched, so to speak! It is times like these when budding raw food eaters like to have dehydrators, cause you can make dehydrated breads and suchlike! Even raw pizza! Mmmm that'd be yummy lol. I have no idea what I can have as a substitute? Or do I just ignore it this evening? Honestly, I would cook a vegie burger and eat it now if I could :)

Hmm I need to make some $$$ so I can buy myself a dehydrator and make some raw savoury food, so I'm not tempted into eating non-raw stuff, even if it is vegan. I am not sure how I can go an entire month eating the way I am eating now, if I keep feeling this way! It is easy peasy with the vegie burger for dinner (along with my green smoothie), but without it's MUCH harder. Normally I don't have any cravings at all by this time of evening. Sort of annoying really!
