So i am at the end of my full third day (never made it this many consecutive days before) and i decided to take the kids rock climbing up in south carloina after i dropped hubby off to work.

i took a box of salad, a box of cherry tomatoes and a water bottled filled with my banana/strawberry shake... and GUESS WHAT>.. even though my kids were eating regular cooked food and the smells were in the car.... i made it! i did not CRAVE it... i did not want it....the smells actually seemed to coat my respiratory system and make me aversive to it! YAAAAAAAAAAAAA

well there i was, EMPTY HANDED... my kids drank my strawberry shake during rock climbing class, my husband ate my salad while we waited in the car for his buildig to open up, so all i had were cherry tomatoess.... but i made it through the 1 hour class ( watching them of course, not participating ) and on the way home, i stopped by a fruit stand and bought three home grown tomatoes and two apples... and i ate the apples on the way home and am going to eat the tomatoes right now...

i am excited... so often in the past, this is where i failed..... the outings, the kids leftovers, the quick eat places (wafflehouse and denny's), their leftovers taunting me from the fridge, picnic table or kitchen table.

I am so excited......i have NEVER done this many days of 100 percent raw... WHOOT i am SO excited ..... SOOO SOOO SOOO HAPPYYYYYYY

and i owe part of my sucess to this board and the lovely and varied people on it... thank you team!

love and light

If you can do it, so can I. Thanks!

Someday there will gourmet raw choices on the menu at chains like Applebees.

Wow! Congratulations!!! I have the same problem with my family wanting to eat what I pack. I sometimes feel guilty, but I have to insist that they stop eating the fresh stuff or else I'd be left with noting and they'd still have their corn chips, hummus, and stuff like that. I'm going to try always packing extra, because I really love seeing them eat the fresh stuff over the packaged foods.

Congratulations, again!!

Love,

Gypsy

Cheers cheers CHEERS to Tiffany!!!!!

Superb! I'm glad you posted this --- I'm happy for you---and you are helping me by posting these victories and enthusiasm.

Today I had a Big Battle (I didn't eat the evil thing, but it was much too difficult a struggle!) (I know it will get easier, more natural...like it is getting for you!)

So keep up the positive energy and the success--- and go ahead and shout about it! I LOVE hearing about that!
