Reflecting
Yay! Day 2! No cravings either! I made one of my favorite cooked foods for my family, the smell was soooo good, but I didn't want to actually eat it!
(this is actually May 24th)
I have spend some time today reflecting on what causes me to reach for cooked foods when I do. My number one issue is that I don't eat enough calories from fruits. When I eat enough fruit and then have a big salad for dinner, I do fine. My problem is that I don't like common fruits like peaches, apples, bananas, grapes or anything that I have constant access to. I would have no problem whatsoever if I had constant access to mangosteens, lychees, figs, cherimoyas, jackfruit & stuff like that! Heck even if I had constant access to good tangerines year round I would be ok! But alot of the played out nasty usual stuff just isn't for me. So then I end up eating only a bit of fruit and trying to live off greens which dosn't work caloricly and I crave fats and starches & cooked foods! For the past couple days I have not been tempted in the slightest for cooked foods or fatty heavy foods because I have a good supply of fruit I like. I still eat my greens every day but it's usually a salad and/or a juice.
Today I had:
tamarinds
jackfruit ice cream
cherimoya
oranges
salad (napa cabbage, spinach, cucumber, tomato, fermented veggies, dates.. dresing was a splash of sweetened nama shoyu)
wraps (kale, celery, fermented veggies, dates, tomato)
peny drink
vanilla ice (lol)
raspberry leaf tea
