Give it to me Raw

Wow,
All the kids with their GI2MR pages (I'm using acronyms! I know what they mean! I feel so cool, so "in"!) pimped out are pretty impressive. But I'll think about how to make mine pretty, then people will be seduced into reading the drivel I post on teh internets here. Because that seems like the best way to win friends and influence people. :)

To talk about something actually relevant, I'm having a irritating little issue with cooked food right now. I don't actually crave it severely. If I get a craving during the week, I get up right then and there and eat a piece of fruit, and that usually helps. I know I'm overeating, but I'm transitioning (seems like constantly: *rolls eyes*) and I feel like doing it organically, not rigidly, not following any 'guru' or diet dogma, but rather listening to my body, is what's working best for me. BUT on the weekends, usually, when I am in a social situation with cooked food, I will eat the cooked food, no matter if I'm hungry or not. If someone orders an appetizer pizza, I'll eat a little slice and then feel yucky the whole next day AND regretful. I try not to be so hard on myself, but guilt is a family pastime (obviously I have issues there that need some massaging out...) so the self-ass-kicking usually commences like a hangover afterward. Hm. Any suggestions on how to a) resist the appetizer pizza when it inevitably gets in my face again or b) let go of the ruefulness I feel when I eat it?

Since going high raw, I've lost five pounds in about two weeks. I'm so gleeful about that. It's near unbelievable. I haven't had any test recently, but I'm almost positive that I have borderline low-thyroid (and a long and rich family medical history of thyroid nodules and cancers, diabetes, adrenal failure, etc. Like a disease tapestry...) and the weight hasn't budged for two years. I'm preparing myself for eventual emotional detox, which ought to be a real doozy, because I have some bi-polar tendencies (another family gift which keeps on giving) which I feel is also related to a fucked-up thyroid, but I'm doing several things to get to full health on that one.

Anyway. That was nice. First blog post. Get it all out there. Good times.

Keep it real, homeslices.

Love that pizza! Even though it may not be lovin' you back in the digestion department. Give it permission to leave. Just think of it as being there to teach you things about yourself. Work on feeling fully what it does to your body and what you do to yourself with your self judgments. When it finally hurts enough and you can feel that you will let it go because the price is just too expensive.

That sounds like fun.. There is a thing called double dutch where two girls hold two ropes and you have to jump them both at the same time.. maybe you could find a couple of girls to try this with you. It's pretty impressive when you see it..
