227 Days Raw!
Since my fast I've made one change in my routine

my fast I have changed one aspect of my eating: I stopped eating
breakfast before leaving for work. Instead, I take fresh fruit with me
and eat that at work as my breakfast. At noon I have my normal sized
lunch (and usually I'm hungry by then). In the evening I eat a small
meal because I'm usually not starving. I've been a little better about
drinking more water, these past couple of days. I deliberately did not
weigh myself this morning, but I might do so tomorrow as I am curious
about whether I've bounced back up the scale since resuming solid
foods.
Tomorrow I have a little challenge: I'm starting a new
job and will be attending a staff meeting they are having where I will
be able to meet everyone. This meeting includes a luncheon the company
provides. I imagine that they will not have foods I will want to eat,
so I will have to figure out what to do. Maybe I can take some dried
fruit and munch on that. Times like these are when dried fruit truly
comes in handy!
Oh- and let me tell you about one particular
dried fruit that comes in handy for me: prunes! Yeah, prunes,- the
stuff I used to joke about when I was a kid, when I thought only old
people ate 'em! Occasionally I get - um- stopped up, if y'know what I
mean. I had that problem the first day after my two-day fast ended,
which I thought was strange. Anyway, I have found that one or two
prunes will solve the problem within less than 24 hours. I am really
sensitive to prunes since I started eating raw, so I have to limit myself
to one or I'll have cramps all day. I eat it when I get home from work
or before I go to bed so that by morning, voila- I am cured. A simple
example of using food as medicine. I love avoiding pills. I wish I
could find a food for headaches now! And stuffed sinuses. And ear
infections...
