This is a great thread!

Gosia, I know those grapes you are talking about. Here in the States they are called muscadines and they are dark purple and come into season at the end of the summer. I love 'em, too, and when I see them available I get so excited. Wow. They are super sweet and "minerally" and I can live on them! They are way better than a grape Nehi! Ha, ha.

Yesterday I ate:

1:00 pm 1 pineapple
3:00 pm several glasses orange juice
5:00 pm bit of tomato juice w/lemon
6:00 pm 1 honeydew melon
7:00 pm 6 bananas
9:00 pm 2 cups date syrup (dates "melted" in water)

Today I have eaten so far:

1:00 pm 2 glasses pineapple juice
3:00 pm 8 honey tangerines
5:00 pm 6 honey tangerines

When I get home late tonight I'll have some more tangerines!

smiling smiley

Love,
Julie

Been travelin’ the last couple of days, most of this I ate either on a bus or in a open cafeteria or like Whole Foods (their produce isn’t as great as I remembered), haha. Anyone have a hard time eating high-fruit on the run?

WED

10:00 11 bananas

3:30 – 12 blood oranges, 2 huge tomatoes, 2 cucumbers (got a few looks eating this one)

6:30 small salad, .75 lb dates

THURS

12:00 3 ½ lbs black grapes

6:00 16 oz all-greens juice from a health food store
7:30 – 1 package of celery hearts, 1 small mix salad .75 lbs dates

FRI

12:00 2 ½ lbs black grapes

3:00 10 bananas

(got trapped on a bus in a snowstorm from 1-9pm and the only thing I had in my house was…
9:00 2 red apples, 4 bananas, 1 pretty sad cucumber, and 1+ ounces of sesame and sunflower seeds

SAT

I went bazooka today on lunch.

Don’t know if this was an emotional hangover from being TRAPPED the whole day before or its because I did a mega-workout of over 200 hindu pushups as the first HALF of my routine. Usually it is just the mangos

8 med yellow mangos
2 bananas
1.5 lbs dates with 8 huge ribs of celery

7:45 1 ½ lbs of dandelion and kale juiced with 2 green apples
8:30 1 cucumbers, 2 lbs tomatoes, the rest of the stalk of celery, 1/3 bunch romaine, 1 med avo

I agree Julie, these grapes are nutritionally superior to other varietes. To me they taste very gourmet too. Mono-eating can be gourmet ha ha!

Audrey, love to see you here!

Day 4 (18 March):
peaches, strawberries, zuccini noodles on a bed of mixed baby greens, with cherrie tomatoes, tomatoe sauce made from blended tomatoes, and tahini, had a taste of two strawberries one dipped in carob and another in chocolate sauce (I made them, along with the cinnamon rolls for today's meditation at our house), black Muscatel grapes, bananas

Fat intake: less than 2 teaspoons of coconut butter, 1 tablespoon of tahini.

Observations: my weight today is 49 kg (but I am not doing it for the weight loss, I am happy with my weight, simply wanted to record it for comparison), in the morning I definitely experienced some cleansing (sinking bms), and had a restless night (should not have tried that chocolate-dipped strawberry, I won't buy raw chocolate ever again, it's highly toxic, why should I poison my friends?)

My son Odys recorded the first part of the documentary (proud name for a home movie he he) about my experiment. Hopefully, I will be able to make it work.

Dear Gosia,

I love the way you are so honest.

And I agree completely with your reasoning: Chocolate is toxic, so why poison my friends?

Love it! I feel the same way. . .

Love,
Julie

morning: 3 bananas

afternoon: 5 fuji apples, 9 dates

evening: huge salad of romaine, spinach, carrot, cellery
and a whole pound of frozen green peas

after awhile i'm gonna have a wedge of watermelon


today is the first day in a long time that i feel emotionally sensitive
and strong food cravings. the peas were unplanned and the bit of
fat content in them helped to calm me a bit.
