I’m going raw

By admin

Get your mind outta the gutter – I’m talking food, not sex, ya perv lol

I figure if I blog about transitioning to a raw food diet – the prep, the transition, recipes – maybe I’ll stick to it.  After working out for 5 days a week for six weeks and not losing much poundage I figured it was time to change the eating habits – I was being good food wise but working in a pizza shop does not help.

I have a juicer coming (thanks to a friend).  I have the Eating for Energy ebook with all the bonuses a girl could ask for.  I also have two raw food recipe books that I got for a steal on amazon.ca with a gift card I got from another friend/business buddy.  These are them:

While I wait for the juicer to arrive – I will read and attempt to understand the basic biological science behind a raw diet – tips, tricks and how to transition without ending up in the bathroom for hours on time (I’ve heard this could happen).

I feel like this will bring me back to nature.  I hope it will help me not require a ton of new kitchen stuff when we move since all I kept last time we packed up was my Pampered Chef gear which I haven’t unpacked because we don’t live in our own place yet.  Looking forward to saving up for a good set of knives and a better blender – what I have now will work until then.

Now I may not go all the way raw – as I transition I’ll see what I’m comfy with – I’ve always said I would end up vegetarian or vegan so we’ll see how it goes.

Either way this will help with my intake of fresh veggies, fruit and the like.  I tend to buy it and then ‘save it’ for Kaius, which is silly because I could buy more when it runs out.

Wish me luck!
