[Yoggy]

My 30 days raw started yesterday

Here's what I've eaten so far:

Yesterday:

breakfast: wha guru chew (non-raw vegan energy bar because I had NO raw food in my house, having just spent the last 2 weeks in Ontario)

snack: 16 oz fresh squeezed orange juice. A few raw macadamia nuts

lunch: herb salad of parsley, cilantro, avocado and onions, mixed with a blended mixture of almonds, tahini, onion, agave nectar, lemon juice, olive oil and salt. It was so yummy and I was soooo full after!

supper (I was still a bit full from lunch): carrot sticks with a "cheesy" dip of tahini, lemon juice, agave nectar, garlic and salt. It really tasted cheesy!

Today:

breakfast: 9 fresh squeezed oranges mixed with 2 fresh squeezed grapefruits

lunch: zucchini fettuccini (I just peeled zucchini "noodles" with a peeler) with a DELICIOUS sauce of tahini, pine nuts, water, parsley, olive oil and agave nectar. I could eat this every day!!!

snack: 16 oz orange juice (I'm glad there's a juice bar on campus!)

supper: will be beet ravioli with herb cheese spread, and probably some fruit for dessert, maybe apples dipped in agave nectar

[Tigerlily]

9 oranges and 2 grapefruits? My citrus allergies aside, I don't think I could handle something so acidic on an empty stomach!

[Woodsie]

Organic tea with soy milk
OJ/w calcium
Brown Rice Flakes & Golden Flax Seeds
Soy Milk
1/2 organic apple, 1/2 banana

Organic apple, chai tea

Lentil Soup
2 Ryvitas with Tartex pate, sliced cucumber & radish
Fresh pineapple chunks

2 corn crackers with vegemite
Organic carrot sticks & gerkins with no oil dressing

Gigantic mushroom stuffed with garlic mash and white beans topped with nutritional yeast
Salad with flax dressing and spicy pumpkin seeds

1 brazil nut, wasabe peas

[emmapresley]

LOADS!

porridge..soya milk..maple syrup..seeds
nettle tea

2 bottles water
roast veg - courgette, tomatoes,GARLIC peppers red and green,aubergine and cous cous

carrot and lentil soup, rice crackers, bit of tartex, peanut butter..mixed salad with olive oil and balsamic vinegar dribbles! a bit of left over cous cous..splodge of left over tomato sauce from another day

alpro choc pud..alpro carton choc milk..few dates..

vodka and apple juice

it doesn't look TOO bad written out but it feels like I've eaten really badly today

finding that if i just roast a huge pile of veg and mix it with cous cous it's a really comforty winter food thing..but i read some of this thread and it's all so diverse. I'd just eat that endlessly if i could..that and the peanut butter stuffed medjool dates

[Tigerlily]

Emma, we all have those days where we think we ate bad. But in reality it isn't. Imagine, there are some people out there and their days look like this:

breakfast: fried eggs and bacon
lunch: mcdonald's hamburger, fries, extra large Coke
snack: package of gummy candies
supper: chinese take-out...egg rolls, fried rice, chicken balls

So in comparison to that, it's not bad!

[pavotrouge]

yesterday:

muesli with soymilk

three kiwi fruit

a salad of mixed greens, sunflower seeds and sprouts

5 stuffed wine leafs

falafel in pita bread with mixed veggies

white bean-tomato salad

LOTS of herbal tea

[Yoggy]

9 oranges and 2 grapefruits? My citrus allergies aside, I don't think I could handle something so acidic on an empty stomach!

Usually I like to blend a banana into it for extra sweetness, but my bananas are still green. I don't find it too acidic, it's actually a very satisfying breakfast .

Thanks Yoggy.

I'm going to try it again tomorrow. I want to see if it makes a difference to my hunger/cravings, by going without. I seem to crave a bit of sweet stuff actually, and I don't know, but I'm wondering if the coffee might have something to do with it.

Wildflower.....go back a page or 2.....we were asking you a question

Yoggy - how do you feel after your junk food? If you don't want to finish it off, you can just send it to me!!

Hi Tigerlily - I think I've had a little extra tiredness in the mid-afternoons, but to tell the truth, I don't know if that's attributed to lack of coffee, or the fact that I've been having chickpea salads for lunch (afternoon digestion). No headaches though!

[Yoggy]

My boyfriend gets headaches if he doesn't have a cup of coffee every morning. I thought it was just withdrawal, but he said that he had a headache almost every day in his teens, and then he discovered that having a cup of coffee every day helps keep them away. Weird.

I didn't have too much junk food, just the bag of chips and a little chocolate. I feel ok, but still kind of hungry. But I'm craving something warm, because it's so miserable here, cold and wet and SO rainy! I walked home in the pouring rain today hauling a big bag full of stuff, so I feel I deserve to treat myself to some warm tea or hot chocolate (my mom got me some "Health by Chocolate" hot chocolate mix, that can only be good, right? )

[Tigerlily]

I didn't have a coffee today and I feel headachey. Two days ago, I didn't have one either and I got a big migraine. I'm not even a coffee addict or anything.

[Roxy]

Hmmmm that's interesting about the headaches, you guys.

Have you tried that Health by Chocolate before Yoggy? It's the Eco Bella stuff right?

[jamboxrock]

dinner - taco salad made of spring mix, Fanatastic Foods Taco "meat" mix, black beans, sliced grape tomatoes, tortilla chips, salsa, sliced avacado. bottle of cider.

I was craving a taco salad ALL DAY today. One with veggie chili on it. I'm thinking I might get the ingredients and have it tomorrow.

breakfast: decaf green tea w/ lemon, smoothie (banana, peanut butter, cocoa, ground flax, soymilk)

lunch: salad (romaine & leaf lettuce, cherry tomato, cucumber, mushroom, carrot, broccoli, walnuts, goddess dressing), two hint of mint cookies

snack: raspberry soy yogurt, cherries

dinner: black eyed pea & greens casserole, spicy sauteed squash & red peppers, a tangelo

currently: a handful of salt & vinegar kettle chips, a couple saltines, some beers

[Wildflower]

Wildflower.....go back a page or 2.....we were asking you a question

Bahahahaha! My black apple... I saw them at the health food store a few weeks ago and was all exited - I said to my bofriend, "A black apple - wow that sounds exciting!" He was cracking up at me...I was hoping it would be black inside, but he thought I was nutz thinking that and couldn't stop laughing at me. Anyway, it was just a regular apple that had black skin, the inside was like normal apple, so it wasn't too exciting! But I bought a couple and that one stayed fresh for about 2 weeks in my fruit bowl, which is much longer than regular apples seem to last. The sign said, "Organic Black Apple" I am not sure it was the same thing Tigerlily posted, it wasn't very plum like, it really was just an apple with black skin, but either way I was sooo excited about it.
