Date: April 09, 2008 10:22AM Tangerine, one at a time for awhile.
Kiwi, one at a time for awhile. Tomato, one at a time for awhile. Mango, one at a time for awhile. Banana, one at a time for awhile. avocado, one. Bright colored bell peppers, one at a time for awhile. Apple, one at a time for awhile. very green smoothie, when hungry repeated until bedtime. I like to eat instinctively stopping one food and starting another as desired with each food separated by a slight hunger signal. Each little mono meal food is eaten just frequently enough to stay in the "satisfied" zone reading the body signals for not to little nor to much using time and "feel" as the regulator. The foods change from day to day. Re: on the menu for tomorrow

Date: April 09, 2008 11:15AM fascinating ez! i've been inspired by people's recent mono-eating experiments but not sure if i am ready to give up the variety. what you describe sounds entirely do-able. not tomorrow, but someday! Re: on the menu for tomorrow

Its very simple and easy to eat like this. Just go with the flow naturally and when a food tastes good to you continue eating it in small amounts until your body desires something else to eat which I take as a message that the body has had enough of that particular food and the nutrients it provides and desires something else.

Date: April 09, 2008 12:22PM Ooh...this was just mean to start this thread. :-P LOL
It all looks great, though! I agree that EZ's way of eating is fascinating. It's almost a grazing type of eating, it seems. Lots of love to you, Wendi XOXO Re: on the menu for tomorrow

Date: April 09, 2008 12:54PM i feel so good today
i just don't know why i wish i didn't feel so good but i do oh well sometimes that is just the way it goes u know? must have been the salad i ate it was similar to arugulas in that it had LOTS of greenz hey arugula i notice that u put YOURSELF!! in the salad LOL 
notice the third ingredient well, actually it probably had nothing to do with the salad it had to do with a e mail that i received from a REALLY cool dude and he sent me some stuff that he wrote and i thought they were really cool and it made my day just did and the salad probably didn't hurt either i rolled up my salad in nori twas yummy Re: on the menu for tomorrow

Date: April 09, 2008 08:13PM LaV, there are many colors of sweet potato, tending to whitish, orangish, and purplish. The Asian varieties are often purple. They have a different taste and texture, too--sweeter and more mealy. They are also more expensive than the American orange ones.
I usually love Arugula but the one in my salad today was a tad too bitter. Not sure why. Maybe my Farmer John did something different to the soil this time. I got a nice email from a nice dude today, too! He lives in an ecovillage in Stockholm and he volunteers for Friends of the Earth trying to save the rainforests. Re: on the menu for tomorrow

Date: April 09, 2008 09:52PM Fun thread.
My menu tomorrow will be a pineapple/blueberry/cherry smoothy with a little flax oil and nutmeg for breakfast. Then escarole,spinach,romaine greens for lunch,with some lentil and alfalfa sprouts. Might dip some celery into an avocado dip. Cucumber slices. Suppers,since I am not totally raw,are usually the same as lunch,but with a lightly steamed veggie.Green beans and squash are my favorite. The only beverage I have anymore is distilled water,greens drinks,diluted fresh squeezed orange juice,and teas. Brian Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 04/09/2008 09:55PM by Raw1228.

Date: April 10, 2008 01:22AM not sure about my whole day, but tomorrow BF is going to be:
(i think) 16oz fresh oj 8 oz strawberries 8 oz mango For some crazy reason I am into weighing my food (like strwberries) and plugging it into fitday to see all of the incredible vitamins I am getting. I love seeing the pie chart and obviously am very visual...obsessive....compulsive....over-the-top....maybe...yes. For a newbie it works for me! (80-10-10 combo as well)Re: on the menu for tomorrow

I am like that, too, I get off on seeing how much of the good stuff I am getting from an analytical point of view. Re: on the menu for tomorrow

Date: April 10, 2008 12:41PM I didn't have what I thought I would today. I instead made a smoothie with about 10oz cabbage (weighing my greens makes me realize how little I was using prior to doing the weighing! I cannot believe how much 1lb of weighed out greens actually is! I have to use an enormous serving platter for my salads now!  , 1 3/4lbs bananas, and a scoop of chia seeds! YUM!Re: on the menu for tomorrow

Date: April 10, 2008 04:24PM I'm tryin to do mostly juice right now but I have a high metabolism and it's tough sometimes!
10 oz. carrot juice with a bit of collard juice 5 oranges (not juiced) 1 brazil nut (haha, seriously, just one) 3 sheets of raw nori 20 oz. of pear-kale (and some collard) juice (my favorite) Not sure what the rest of the day will bring. I have more kale, carrots, apples, and collards in my fridge, but I might go to the store to get bananas. I also want raw cacao but goign to try to stay away from it. (And like others, besides my nuts, seeds, and seaweed snacks for nutrients, I am trying to do mono eating as well.) [utopiankitchen.wordpress.com] Edited 1 time(s).
