Ch Ch Ch Changes.....

It is Day 8 of my change in diet. It's been long enough to say that I definitely feel different when I eat fresh fruits and vegetables. I have had a couple of stumbles, on Day 5 I had a whole wheat pizza and two cake balls out shopping with my girls. The clarity of my head and the energy I had been feeling for the days prior definitely waned when I ate that way. My skin has broken out a bit (I read this is a normal part of detox) and that has been the most bothersome thing. My clothes are looser and I feel very very good. And it has only been a week! My goal was to make a lifestyle change jump started by cutting out meat, dairy, breads and eating as many raw foods as I can. I am currently craving veggies, and I like the way I feel. This experiment has already been a success. My plan is to continue to eat this way, to have as much raw food as I can while adding some things lightly steamed and whole grain pastas, rice, breads etc. That will be phase 2 in a few days. I recommend a radical change and increase in fruits and vegetables to anyone. I can't figure out why I resisted it for so long. The looser clothes have inspired me to actually want to walk and bike, so I'm going to take my new bike for a spin tomorrow........All good!
