less sympathy

[Guest guest]

To-day I need less sympathy. I'm still on 100%

raw and my sinus pain is almost gone. It's nice to be

almost pain free but I feel fragile.<br><br>From past

experience of moving on to 100% raw, in a couple of days I

will have overflowing energy. This is actually a

dangerous time for me because I feel good and I like to

share my good feeling with others and this means eating

with them which can mean eating cooked fat and protein

and then I am back on the treadmill again.<br><br>So

this time I will channel my overflowing energy into

walking, meditation and work and I am staying on my, our,

raw diet.

Shortus,<br><br>I can Sympathize! I've been where

your at... many times, I'm wondering if theres a more

" middle path " to the dilemma of fasting and fruiting and

raw foods... I'm sure one could chart out a path....

but sticking too it would be the exercise!

Dear Lion,<br><br>Thank you for your sympathy, it

must have worked, the sinus pain is almost gone and

it's like I am living inside a big bell. Thankfully

it's not ringing, and I am keeping fairly still, just

in case.<br><br>I know my body is adapting to a

large change in diet and is prompting me to return to

fat and protein. It's very clever. First it signals

me with body pain, when that doesn't work, it makes

me feel sick and gives me hot flushes. When it can

see I am not listening, it brings out the artillery

and plays mind games. It tells me that this is not a

good idea and that other people are to blame for my

bad feelings. But I say right back to my body, " You

are a brilliant adaptor, you can adapt to raw food,

and once you are on raw you won't want to come back " .

So I take no notice of your pains, I know your mind

games are smoke and mirrors. Before long you will be

feeling absolutely fantastic, you will have tons of

energy, your mind will be clear, you will be slim and fit

and you will have skin like a kid

glove.<br><br>Right, mate, says my body, but it's going to take time.

It takes about 3 weeks to form a habit, but once it

is formed it takes 3 weeks to unform it. This is a

very slow undo button, I said.<br><br>So said my body,

I will change for you, but you've got to realise

this is not easy, and you've got to look after me

while I adapt to raw.<br><br>So here I am looking after

this slow but brilliant body. What can I say but Happy

Christmas!<br><br>Victor.

Victor;<br> I know exactly what you are going

through I've been addicted to booz, and cigaretts. I know

addiction when I see it. I'm going through the same thing

with raw food, hang in there buddy, we'll make

it.<br><br>Doug
