Going raw - great, but not so easy...
Then a great thing happened. I by chance discovered "Give it to me Raw" and stumbled on a blog by Pontus in Sweden. He had such lovely photos of fresh and tempting raw food. This gave me the inspiration to take photos of what I myself was eating. And suddenly it was no problem at all to switch back to the almost completely raw diet. The raw food looked so much better then the cooked!
The picture shows my breakfast at the first morning when I started to take photos of my meals. I felt quite enthusiastic about what I was doing and showed the photo to a person who did not know me very well. He looked quite shocked and asked if I really had red wine for breakfast. You probably have already guessed that it is just a blueberry smoothie.
When I manage to keep to a raw diet, I feel just great.

Comment by Rachel Harmony on June 16, 2009 at 7:42pm - I can sympathize. My husband eats a typical American diet of whatever the heck he wants. Making two dinners every night does get tiring! However, a funny thing starts to happen when you make a raw dinner and a regular crappy dinner; the regular crappy dinner starts to look not so good next to the raw dinner! My husband has just recently asked me to share my dinners with him. Soon, who knows maybe he'll be eating raw too! Stay strong, listen to your body, do what's right for you and by your example others will follow! Peace be with you!
