Raw Food Diary January 2006
1. Jan 2006
Happy new year to everybody. I was tempted. That is bad. I got some candy from Belgium, that looked so good and I ate it. I also wanted to know what reaction would I get if I ate something not raw. I ate few of them and threw other away. It didn’t taste good. I can really feel the difference between dead and living food.
I think I have enough candies for a while. I also got a diarrhea right away and I feel like my sinuses are getting full again. That is a bad sign.
I did not loose any weight, only one kilo maybe. That is a good sign.
Today I ate few bananas and these candies. I will eat only living food, but sometimes I will eat some cooked rice, that I like so much, maybe. It is good to take this process slowly. But I feel stupid when I am paying in the shop and all I have are fruits and veggies.

I lost around 4 kilos and I have been on the diet for over 2 weeks. I still have some fat on my body. My food has run out and I have to go to the shop. I will try to buy a dehydrator or I will dehydrate my food with room temperature. I miss bread and cheese. I can not get any raw cheese here in my country. Just sour milk with the farmers around me. I will probably go to buy some raw milk from the farmers in my city.
I hope they are clean and I will not get any parasites :))). What else. Nothing new. I feel a little better. My chest pain is not severe only minor.
I just mixed some tomato into puree and use as a dip with salt. Then I dip sliced vegetable in it. It is wonderful.
Keep you posted people. I will probably start taking pictures of me and I will post them here.

Wow this is amazing. I was shopping in town and I was happy all the time, no depression, nothing, no sad thing. Also I was full of energy. I was so afraid I was going to loose weight when eating raw and I just have contra wish – TOO LOOSE WEIGHT. I have few extra kilos around my stomach, I want to be slim.
I think that I trained my body to use food resources very smart. And I think my body building years and tae kwon do training helped, so I build some muscles. I am so satisfied with the diet. I am not hungry, do not miss cooked food. Here is the secret. If I wanted pizza or something I would go and get one, but I know it doesn’t taste alive!!!!!
So I do not have any craving for cooked food. Also recipes from internet and knowing that a lot of people are 100 % raw helps very much.
I feel good and before 3 weeks when I started I couldn’t get out of the bed, I was so tired. Also my pain in chest was really alarming and my high pulse (120 bpm when I was walking).
I just get a haircut and I like myself. If I would just loose some weight so my muscles would show :)))
Also in the shop they got organic kiwi, oranges but they were expensive. Also the carrots were organic. But it is more expensive then usual food.
So that is it. I will take some pics of me naked (joke) so I will see how my body is transforming.
See you later alligator :)))))))))))))
Maybe I will go train martial arts again, but I am so out of that scene, because nobody attacks me never, thanks god. Once I fought with 3 large fat village people and it was rough.

Hey another day on raw food. I cheated only once and that was on New years eve with some candies.
I took some pictures of myself and I will post them here.
I had minor problem with teeth, they were chipping off at the top of the tooth. Many people on raw diet had the same problems. Few also lost all of their teeth. It depends on the person but I never had any problems with chipping off the enamel of the tooth. Somebody suggested me to not eat and citruses and to wash my mouth after every meal. I am also brushing teeth after each meal to prevent any acids to melt my enamel.
I think it is fine for now but obviously body is not getting the right minerals so it must take them from teeth. I will probably start to eat raw milk products like goat cheese to preserve my teeth.

Wow, it is great. I failed again J. Yesterday I wanted to eat pizza so I bought one. It was really good veggie pizza. I thought I would have bad reactions but the only thing happened was that today I am more tired and that my sweat smells more. I think that we should not torture our body with raw food if it crave cooked food sometimes. I think I made that mistake 10 years ago when I was 100 % raw for 6 months. Today it is 1 month till I started eating raw again. I cheated 3 times. First with some sweets, then also with sweets and yesterday with pizza.
And also many celebrities are not 100 % raw like Woody Harelson and Carol Alt. So I think we should sometimes listen to our bodies.
I will still eat raw but I will probably sometimes eat something cooked. I think the transformation should be slow.
Also I loose a lot of weight, around 8 kilos in 1 month. I will took some pictures of me again.
I just bought some bio veggies and fruit but are more expensive. I saw bio bananas for the first time. I didn’t know that they use pesticides with banana trees.
