Help Me! I'm Relapsing
I can't believe this is happening to me! I find I suddenly want cooked food... cakes, noodles, buffalo wings,blue cheese! I don't understand why this is happening to me. I caved today, after not wanting anything cooked since the beginning of the year and not eating anything processed for over a month I decide to try the carrot cake in Whole paycheck. I feel sick right now, I feel like I have a food hangover...like if the temperature goes up 1 degree in this room I am not going to keep the cake down. What makes this whole thing even worse is that right now I'm thinking about eating chinese food. How can I be physically sick from eating the cake and still crave chinese food? What is that about?!? Two days ago the smell of dim sum almost made me earl! A few hours ago standing by the cheese as I picked up cocoa powder made me cringe...now I want noodles and general tso chicken?!?! How could my mind be so twisted and inconsiderate of my bodies feelings?!?! This is sick! Deep down I know that garbage isn't going to satisfy my "hunger", if anything its going to make things worse...but i still want it.
Lately I've been counting down the days till I start my juice feast. And yes I'm very excited about it....even right now i'm excited about it. I don't think eating a slice of cake is the end of the world and I know its not going to deter me from starting my juice feast... but it's my thought process that has me soo confused. Could this be a case of "fear of success" creeping up? I'm not sure how to analyze this. Now I'm sipping on my raw kombucha and praying for these feelings (and food hangover) to go away. I'm perplexed and feeling doubtful.

I'm always thinking about where i'm going to buy things, how much money I should be spending, ways I can save money. Plus I live with big time carnivores, I'm always smelling oxtails or seafood around my house. When I think about it I guess I'm not surprised that this happened

- thank you both for your words I needed it. I'm feeling a bit better now. The mind is an interesting thing this is making me wonder what's going to happen once I start feasting. I'll be ok either way.

just ride it out .... acknowledge the feeling and acknowledge you are not going to do anything about it ..... it sounds to me like the playback routine .... as your body detoxes, it brings back to the surface cellular memories of foods you used to eat .... i believe the same thing happens on a juice feast as you reverse the damage that has been inflicted on your body over the years. there is more on this on the juice feasting site i think, or on Angela and matt's site, Raw Reform.
you will be fine, just go through it.

my magic bullet burnt out, it was good for travelling while I had it though. Can you get a second hand blender? The cheaper ones I have used don't chop up the greens as well. Try to get something with a higher wattage, like 1000watt.

Just being curious again :P ...
There are so many unique people, with their own ways of eating.
Vegan, Vegetarian, Lacto-Vegetarian, Ova-Vegetarian, Fruititarian and Raw foodist are some of the many labels people define themselves or others.

"Fashionista's" simply look at Fashion as an Art, their own bodies as the canvas, and the sense of style they develop along the way is simply the masterpiece.

Thanks, Erin. Dang, I forgot to check Vitacost, which I just did--and I have been seeeeeriously overpaying for my essential sweets!
I have definitely made friends with stevia--it's like my new *best* friend now that I don't use any other sweetene...
