RawFu Challenge Day 52

Well I have to admit I had some cooked food yesterday. My daughter was in a quincenera and they had some awesome mexican food. I had a huge salad BUT I added some rice on top:( Just a taste. It was really good.I also lost a couple more pounds (that's probably why I ate the rice). I tend to sabotage myself when I'm doing really good. My mind says "hey you're losing weight" a bit of rice won't hurt. I don't feel too bad about it-I'm right back on the RAW horse so to speak.

I start training soon for my 5k in March-that will definately help. I am now having more and more people approach me about RAW. They can really see the change in me (weight) and I am full of energy, NOT starving. Sometimes it's cool but I am careful not to be too 'preachy'. There are soooo many reasons why I am doing this. It's not just about the weight. It's health, environment..etc. Who is going to want to listen to all that? (except you guys:).

I am a little worried about being 100% RAW for Fall - I went RAW in Feb. This is my first Fall season eating this way. I love warm soups and just warm hot food in general in the Fall!. Right now I am soaking nuts and getting ready to make some hearty raw dishes. I know that once I get that dehydrator I will be good to go. So many of my friends want me to make them some raw food dishes. That is going to be fun!

Meals:
On Friday I made some really good veggie rolls using the nori sheets. I put some seed cheese, tomatoes, and whatever veggies I had inside and yum! I also went to the sushi bar and got some veggie rolls (no rice)! It was Friday and I wanted nori wraps!! It was delish.

Today (Sunday) was plain foods, nothing fancy:
Breakfast:Oranges (4)Snack (at the soccer game)sunflower seeds/water
Lunch:Basic saladoranges (my body wants them right now)tea
Dinner:flaxseed crackers/seed cheese dipteaI did not eat too much today-I was away from home and giving my body a break since I ate rice on Saturday. But I was not hungry.I am getting my nuts ready(soaking) to be 'pated' for this weeks lunch.
Peace:)
