Days 6 and 7...

This weekend was a bit of an experiment! My hubs and I decided to eat raw the 5 days during the week and eat some cooked foods on the weekends to give us something a bit different. Here's how the weekend went:

-Sat. bkfst...french toast (spelt bread, org. eggs, vanilla and almond milk) with real maple syrup
-banana
-friend's b-day party early afternoon...turkey pinwheels (3) and veggie straws
-Cristina's with family (early dinner)...chips, salsa, queso :( and flour tortillas, I also had a few mini chicken flauta's and we drank water
-orange juice
-holy tea

I didn't like the full feeling I had after eating at Cristina's at all....and we didn't even eat an actual meal....I felt heavy on the inside. When we got home from church we weren't even hungry and decided to just have a big glass of fresh OJ. I never really feel the effects of my eating til later in the evening and then it's usually too late. I have to remember how I WANT to feel (nice and light on the inside)!!

-Sun. bkfst...org. scrambled eggs (which my son kept eating off my plate, so I don't know how much I actually ate) and fresh french fries in coconut oil and a blend of holy tea and grape/cranberry juice over ice
-lunch at a friends house...1/2 burger with lettuce and tomato and 1/2 chicken breast, pasta salad, fresh strawberries, a little bit of this yummy artichoke/jalapeno dip with these dipper things (garlic toastie things) and sweet tea
-dinner was a few more fresh fries in coconut oil (didn't want to waste the oil...it's not cheap) and water
I know I ate a lot of potatoes today and that truly is b/c I have this huge bag of them from Costco and don't want them to go bad!!!

What I've noticed today was that I actually didn't want to eat fruit while I was eating the bad stuff....weird!! When all I'm eating is raw fruit and veggies that's really all I want. The bad stuff seems to actually make my taste change to want more of it and the same goes for the fruit. So now I have a choice to make...what kind of tastes to I want to crave?? I'm very much looking forward to starting back to mostly raw tomorrow....I say mostly b/c I will keep drinking my healthy protein shakes with almond milk after I work out. I've got a counter full of fresh fruit ready to be eaten. It seems so much worse when I actually right everything I ate down and read over it....thanks for reading and keeping me accountable. Here's to lessons learned and healthy week ahead!! :)
