Raw Food Diet - Day 19

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

Today was wonderful. I had great energy throughout the day and found it easy to concentrate. I also had some spurts of euphoria. I included a lot more greens today as some people suggested, so that may have a beneficial effect. I feel fantastic right now.
Blood Sugar
I’ve been monitoring my blood sugar from time to time, [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 18

Friday, January 18th, 2008

Today was another good day, although I wouldn’t say it was quite as good as the other days this week. Overall I felt pretty much normal today but not uber-fantastic.
I had a typical weight workout at the gym this morning. I notice the weight training workouts have become more taxing, but I’m using heavier weights than [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 17

Thursday, January 17th, 2008

This was my fourth good day in a row. If there’s a hump to get past when adapting to this diet, I’m probably past it. I didn’t feel euphoric today, but I felt very positive and happy, and I had plenty of energy with no daytime drowsiness.
I had a good aerobic workout at the gym. I noticed [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 16

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

Today was my third positive day in a row. I had very stable, even energy throughout the day with no drowsiness. I felt very happy emotionally, sometimes mildly euphoric for a few minutes at a time. I’m feeling considerably better than I did before starting this trial.
I’m enjoying this diet much more than I was last [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 15

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

Today was another very good day, so that’s two in a row. It wasn’t quite as good as yesterday, but it was close. It started with a slightly sluggish morning workout, which was really my fault because I didn’t eat anything before doing weight training. Normally I eat a piece of fruit on the way to [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 14

Monday, January 14th, 2008

Today was definitely one of the best. I slept well last night and didn’t have any trouble getting up. I felt a little sluggish during my morning aerobic workout, although it was nothing serious. On the way home from the gym (6:15am), I started feeling pretty good, and I felt great for most of the day with [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 13

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

Today was mixed. I woke up still feeling mentally foggy, and for most of the morning I was physically sluggish, like I just wanted to lie in bed or sit on the couch all day. In the late morning my energy gradually increased. After lunch I played disc golf in the park with 3 friends, and I thought [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 12

Saturday, January 12th, 2008

Today was another down day, so apparently I’m still stuck in this yo-yo pattern. I did a typical weight training workout at the gym this morning, and it went fine. But after breakfast I felt listless and mentally foggy, and I couldn’t shake it for the entire day. I spent a lot of time playing with the kids today, which [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 11

Friday, January 11th, 2008

Today was a marked improvement over all the other days of this trial. Shortly after breakfast I gently slid into that euphoric/blissful state and spent most of the day there. I still feel it now, although it’s not as pronounced as it was in the morning. I also got a lot of work done today. No task [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 10

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

Today was a strange day. I’ll explain why in the meal section of this post, but I want to address a few other items first.
My weight workout at the gym seemed more challenging than usual, but that’s probably because I progressed to heavier weights than I was using last week. I didn’t have any problems and made it [...]
