5 minutes of raw food
Posted in raw food on 06/05/2008 12:58 pm by karenAt the office and in between meetings.
What’s new? On Saturday I had a brainstorm and decided it’d be fun to try a raw food diet. Which I know exactly nothing about. Well, I knew exactly nothing about. Since Sunday, I’ve been reading this book. So I know I little bit more.
Ani Phyo also has a website that’s pretty interesting.
Some things I know from (limited — Saturday –> today, Thursday) experience:
- Raw food is really tasty
- I don’t get very hungry at all when I’m eating raw food
- There’s a whole subculture of raw foodism
- The only non-raw thing I miss is soy milk
- It’s nice to “cook” by preparing raw nuts, fruits and vegetables — very aesthetically pleasing
- Yoga practice feels strong and light
- No blood sugar ups and downs during the day
- Actually feel kind of hyper-energized, though perhaps I am hallucinating
- The Cop and I have pizza every Friday night, and I’m not going to stop that
Otherwise, everything else is still in the initial experimentation stage.
