Hi everyone-I'm new to this list, so bear with me.
I have been raw at different levels for a couple of years now. For the past
2 months, I have been eating 5 pieces of fruit, each by itself-first, a
banana, than an apple, than a whole cantalope, then grapefruit/orange. No
more fruit the rest of the day, but this has seemed to completely cure my
craving for sugar the rest of the day-(used to drink a lot of alcohol, so my
sugar cravings became rabid after I quit).
Midday, I eat a large salad with spinach, sprouts and avocado.
Dinner is the hardest. If I eat a couple of crackers with my mate-(who is a
bread/salami & heavy cheese man), I end up binging on them. Then the cheese,
which dosen't set well in my system.
My question is: what can I do to improve my diet? Cooked food makes its way
in my life on the weekends and some evenings. Should I allow myself to go
through it, or can I eat something that will help kill the cravings for
carbs? It seems my body likes the raw, lighter foods. I don't feel well
eating cooked, with the exception of miso soup. I know miso is considered
"cooked", but this soup seems to do wonders for my digestive system. I crave
hot soups in the winter.-noodles have become too heavy, however.
Any thoughts on miso?
peace
lisa
