Making Progress

Today I had my first green juice: celery, cucumber, spinach, parsley, ginger, apple. It is quite nice. I had it with only the greens, but it didn't have much flavour and tasted like it needed some salt and pepper. lol So I added the apple & ginger, and it was quite nice. I had two large glasses of it, and two large glasses of water.

For lunch I spread avocado, lemon juice, chopped tomato, and rock salt on rice crackers. I really enjoyed them and felt quite full afterwards.

I "caved in" at dinnertime, and had a toasted chicken & avocado sandwich. The bread didn't appeal to me as much as it used to, even after such a short time of change. I did VERY well with weaning off coffee and had my first cup - decaf - at 6.30pm.

I do not like the green coconut water very much, and neither do the children. DD likes the coconut oil, boys don't, and I think it's ok. I will have to figure out how to add it to my diet. I will try to remember to give some to the animals tomorrow.

So little by little I'm making progress towards a raw food lifestyle.
