Time to get your raw on folks! For the next 30 days, EACH DAY please come here and record what you eat, your exercise, water and sleep and encourage others to stay on track. This challenge is only for HIGH CARB raw vegans, 811-style. No superfoods or powders, salt thanks. Example is here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtxFC4LHnKo

"Rules:"
* If you fall off the wagon please don't post about it here because it can negatively affect others on the challenge. Posts like that may be removed to help keep the high vibe.

Food - lots, 811, but no tracking as I had friends over and didn't use my scales and my notebook. I had bananas, strawberries, figs (in a successful cobbler), zucchini-carrot-cucumber sticks with the tahini-pepper dip (another success), Medjool dates, apricots.
Water - 3-4 litres
Sleep - 7 hours
Exercise - walking for 20 minutes
Feeling - very happy after such a brilliant day. I hope yours was too!

Breakfast: Tropical Smoothie, Banana (543 cal)

Snack: 1 Banana (105 cal) Maybe also some pickles, not sure
Exercise: walking, 105 min. approx.

Feelings: I know that today's not my best day ever (not enough calories, 11% fats, not as much working out as I would have liked), but I need to go to the grocery store and am going tomorrow to get more fruits & veggies. I don't get paid until tomorrow so I have to wait until then so I am just working with what I can for today, but at least it's all raw foods and I've been trying to fit in time for adequate rest so I still think I'm definitely on the right track.

Calories 3080 - 85/5/10
Exercise - nothing official - just lots of walking through farmers markets and etc. Got some great fruit & veggies today.
Water - 3 quarts
Feelings - I think today I realized yet again how beautiful the food is God has created. I got crates of peaches and nectarines and some figs, cherries, gold kiwi, berries, melons. We honestly have so much available to us in the country. Yet what do people choose to buy/eat. Sad when this abundance is there and is just what people need for good health. I am hosting a health seminar Sunday on diabetes and weight loss and how a low fat vegan diet will help.
Permalink Reply by Osha Key on Wow Joni, your breakfast, lunch and dinner sound so delicious!! I love peaches, nectarins and cherries. I wish I could get them but it's a winte time where I'm staying.
Well done on hosting a seminar! Watching this movement grow and more people awakening is so exciting and brings hope. Good lunck with that on Sunday! :)
Permalink Reply by Nicole on 11th day, went out tonight so had more salad of the same before going out.
and when i came back i had my usual last meal of the day, i.e. smoothie of lettuce and carrots with 3 sliced bananas in it. And i also had another 2 bananas at some point.
Slept 7 and 1/2 hours last night.
Feel fine and quite active all the time. Good night !

B: 10 date datorade
L: Watermelon, many many cherries
Afternoon: datorade only had 1/2
Evening: 2 cantaloupes
Cals: 2230
Water: lots
Exercise: 1 1/2 hour jujitsu class (interval trainging and jutjitsu technique) Most of the class was huffing and puffing and groaning during the intervals because they overindulged yesterday on fourth of july (many commenting about hot dogs etc.) I felt clear and focused and my breathing was measured. Good workout.
Sleep: 9 hours
Feelings: Feeling good! getting into the rhythm of this. Taking a very calm approach to any cravings. Lots of exposure to "trigger" type foods in the last couple days and I've stayed on the straight and narrow. I feel very proud. Saying out loud "I am committed to this" helps, and I'm basically taking it one day at a time.
