I've been "FREE" - caffeine free, dairy free, wheat free - for three days, and this is the fourth day. It is great to be eating healthily again and to avoid those nasty things that weigh down my body and my spirit.
I've been having 2 litres (quarts) of carrot, orange and ginger juice each day, a salad, and something 'extra'. We don't have fresh greens, so for my green smoothies I use two bananas, two small peaches, wheat grass powder, and water. Hopefully hubby will plant out wheat grass this week.
On Wednesday I made up some grawnola, and ate half that night and the other half on Thursday night: this got me through my monthly munchies without resorting to coffee, chocolate, or wheaty-badness!!!! Yippee!!!!
Early last evening I found myself “searching” in the fridge and pantry, then thought of chocolate icing. I made some up and it is G-O-O-D!!!! Completely indulged, completely took care of my cravings, and I completely stayed raw! ![]()
1 cup dates (best fresh, however I used dried)
cocoa powder to taste
1Tspn coconut oil
splash vanilla extract
Whip up in food processor until smooth!
I have been looking for coffee, however this seems to be more out of habit than actually ‘wanting’ it. I found myself trying to think of things to substitute for that “full” feeling, however realised that this is what got me into a health mess in the first place: so I’m looking for that “clean, healthy” feeling instead!
