greetings all,

transitioned to raw foods six months or so ago, and went cold turkey to one hundred percent. after remaining one hundred percent for over four months, i began to incorporate cooked into my diet again, due to cravings and convenience. what a mistake! i feel ill constantly.....and my attempts to transition back to one hundred percent raw and living foods last about a week at a time before the next relapse.

i am very passionate about this lifestyle however and shall strive to be one hundred percent raw forever. i have never felt or looked better in my entire life!!

so send me some positive lovin thoughts, tomorrow i transition back, goin cold turkey once again, and prayin for the strength, resilience, and inspiration to keep it up.

love and light
(and raw yummies.)

you can do it! couple of things that help me in hard times

desire - something you want
temptation - something you want that will create temporary happiness but has a known negative affect in long term.

do you want temporary happiness, or can you wait for the awesome pay off in the end.. looking at the bigger picture helps pull me out of the temporary state of temptation.

also... thinking about cooked food stealing my enzymes for ever helps. thinking about eating something dead helps (yuck)... hmm those are my helpful negatives.

positives: no health insurance, no dis-ease, lighter, most amazing foods on earth, superfood = superhuman!, overcoming or stepping up to the challenge, paying close attention to inside myself... listening to my natural intuition. the body never lies.

hope some of these things help you good luck, you can do it, you are so awesome!
