Hiya, everyone - I'd only been 100% for a few days, and then I checked my weight. I was really crestfallen - I'd gained weight, even though I'd barely made 700 calories a day, eating all I wanted to - not just in the scale, but I looked so much fatter. So I binged on quinoa pagodas and olive oil and peas - I feel like @#$%&! Mentally and physically. I don't even feel safe now - my mum says it is "monthly" weight gain and munchies. I look forward to the day I have been steadily raw so that these "monthly" things never happen again. Anyhow, I am trying Day 1 again today. I just hope the day ends well. I got back into yoga the other day, in preparation for getting back into dance, but I feel too ucky today to do anything with my body.

It's not exactly raw, but I am going to start making goji berry tea - you take raw dried organic Tibetan goji berries, put them in a cup, pour boiling water on them, and then let it cool. Then you drink it. That's the idea, but I think I might jst soak them in water that hasn't been boiled and drink the water. That way I can feel there's been NO heat destruction.

Goji berries are SOOO hyped, like all that stuff; in my opinion, it is a rip-off, but I am always one for "doing the same things over and over and expecting different results" - who was it who said that is a perfection definition of insanity?

Hey, you know [I hope you got my pm] someone named Dr. Flora used to post here about how drinking fresh pineapple juice on an empty stomach washes away all the effects of having eaten cooked food the day before; so there is no need for worry afterwards. I'm sorry that you don't feel safe, and didn't like what you saw in the mirror; I've done exactly what you described many, many times in the past, and it was a very sad journey. I hope you will feel better by tomorrow. Soaking the berries instead of boiling them is definitely better...

take care.
