So I've been spending alot of time lately reading, educating myself on different aspects of raw foods..my latest book is "The Healing Miracles of Coconut Oil" by Bruce Fife..pretty interesting stuff. But sadly, with all that reading and educating, I've lost focus on the "doing"!! How quickly we can fall off the wagon (for a special meal)..next thing you know the weekend ends and your meals have been a breakfast quesadilla, tacos, and a cheeseburger...a meat festival. My body needs a total detox now!!! I don't love red meat, I don't even really LIKE it..but if it's here, and being cooked, somehow it seems like such a delicious idea! An hour later...not so delicious. We love to punish our bodies though, don't we? So today I'm back to what works...to what I crave and enjoy, and to what makes me feel good. Shake for breakfast, a mid-morning snack of almonds, dates, and coconut..and juice for lunch, salad for dinner...with yummy avocado.
As an aside, JB and I have been downing a few "shots" of RAW apple cider vinegar daily, (for cleansing) as well as about 3 T. of pure coconut oil, (for it's healing properties)...(it also makes an amazing deep conditioner, AND face moisturizer). We'll see if a difference is noticed...hard to tell when you're eating poorly..keep you posted!
