Day 6, feeling good but had insomnia for 3 of those days. Is this typical? Maybe it is part of detox. I have tried to be raw before but without success. I like the fact that I can eat cooked food for dinner, I like potatoes, both white and sweet/yams and pasta. I admit I have fallen a few times by eating a little of something not in the plan but have eaten raw throughout the day faithfully for the 6 days. I don't feel hungry and I don't have cravings. After dinner I am not hungry until I get up the next morning. I'm wating for the detox to set in, so far not a severe detox but then I ate fairly healthy before. (no prepackaged foods) I am hypothyroid, have rosacea, aches and joint pains but since eating this plan, the aches and joint pain have subsided, my skin is clearing up and  I lost a pound which I did not expect to do for a while. So far so good. This is the first eating style that agrees with my body. I was unable to sustain calorie restriction. I'll keep posting as I go...

  • Thanks Shannon, I would love to have a buddy to keep me honest! Day 8 today. Had strawberries for breakfast and did a no no with coffee and cream. Yikes! I think milk is a trigger for my joint inflamation and pain but I really wanted a coffee and it's hard for me to drink it black. At 60 I am not going to deny myself everything! This eating plan agrees with my body and I love it. Except for the occassional fall from the wagon, I am feeling light, more focused and am looking forward to this being a permanent way of life. Having support would be awesome cause I know my family will bock at this eating style. Not the traditional lifestyle I was brought up in and followed for most of my life. I have always been a health nut so eating more healthy than most still meant meat for protein and grains for carbs, no potatoes ! I would much rather get my carbs from fruit, pasta and potatoes with colorful veggies. Leaving meat behind is no biggie for me except for seafood, that might be a challenge!!! With all that said, Thank you for the offer and I will take you up on that!
  • That is WONDERFUL! let me know if you ever need a buddy :)
