Day 5 - May 5

Sara here...
First of all, I'd like to say that I think that I have discovered that milk makes me bloated and gassy.
Second, I feel light and clean.
Third, I've learned that doing a raw food diet (not cheating) is ALMOST impossible, unless you can devote a lot of time and money to food and preparation.
Let's be honest with ourselves...okay, I'll be honest with myself. Cottage cheese is not raw. Ranch dressing is not raw. Granola...not raw. BUT overall...I've been pretty impressed with myself. I've been chomping on TONS of fruits and veggies (which may give me baby poop), and I've totally cut out all pop and sources of added sugar...so I'm feeling great.
Even if I am not going completely raw, I've definitely improved my diet and eating habits in a major way. My portions are smaller (probably because my stomach shrunk due to the lack of food I've been able to take in) and I'm not junking my body up with SUGAR. I love sugar, desserts, brownies, ice cream, Sheila's dream bars, cupcakes, etc... However, after 5 days of giving them up...I feel so much better and don't even crave them. The minieggs hidden at my desk don't even tempt me.
Amen.
