My raw food journal from Jan 22nd 2010

Jan 22nd 2010
Didnt feel hungry til 11.30 so for breakfast had 2 raw choc brownies and smoothie. Smoothie consists of coconut, orange, apple, banana, grapes, frozen pineapple and frozen raspberries

Got left over salad for lunch and then for tea we are having courgette noodles with arabiata sauce. Yum!

Its worth it if only for the washing up instead of masses of dirty saucepans, frying pans and greasy meat tins / grill pans I only have food processors, cutlery, plates and plastic boxes. Yippee!!

We are planning to have something cooked at the end of the Jan challenge, either a pizza or chinese just to see what it tastes like now and what the effect is on us

We have read that your taste buds get replaced every 150 days so if you abstain from a food for that long your taste buds experience it differently and you are less likely to continue with a craving. Dont know how you tell when your last set of taste buds were replaced tho

I am going to attempt to take the dogs for a walk and then will have a smoothie of watermelon, pineapple, banana, apple, grapes, strawberries and frozen raspberries. For tea we have pizza! Grant has been working on it since yesterday, the base is made from flax seeds, celery, onion, carrots, garlic, and tomatoes that is dehydrated for a few hours then nut cheese spread on that then marinara sauce on that and toppings of mushrooms and pineapple and then the whole thing is dehydrated for a few more hours. Yummy!
