Raw Food Diet - Day 30

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

Today was good overall. No problems to report aside from continued dry skin and itchiness.
Now that the trial has officially ended, it almost feels like a graduation. This has definitely been the most challenging 30-day trial I’ve done to date, but I can’t say I’m sad to see it end. I’m looking forward to eating something — [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 29

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

Today was good overall, although I ate a couple ounces of walnuts this morning and then got really drowsy a few hours later. A short nap restored me completely. Walnuts didn’t have that kind of effect on me before this trial.
For a change of scenery, this morning I went to the Strip to do some [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 28

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Good days seem to be the norm now, and today was no exception.
I can’t remember the last time I had any daytime drowsiness. I feel totally awake and alert all day long. On my previous diet, if I really worked hard in the morning, I might take a 20-minute afternoon nap. But now I don’t [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 27

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

This was another very positive day. I finished editing another chapter of my book this afternoon. This was one of the most difficult chapters to get right, mainly because it’s the first chapter, so I’m glad to put those 7,000 words behind me. My physical energy was steady throughout the day, and my mental focus and concentration [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 26

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Today was pretty normal but certainly on the positive side. For the most part, I enjoyed following the raw diet today and had good energy. I spent most of the day working on my book, doing tons of editing. I didn’t feel like my mental endurance or creativity was any higher than usual, but it was [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 25

Friday, January 25th, 2008

Today was another positive day. I felt great overall.
I think the dry skin on my hands is getting better, albeit very gradually. Only two fingers on each hand still look pretty bad.
My appetite wasn’t as high this morning as it was yesterday morning, but I still ate more calories than usual.
I really wanted to eat something other [...]

Raw Food Coaching Session

Friday, January 25th, 2008

I’ve decided to share a recording of my raw food coaching session with coach Roger Haeske. This session was conducted on January 4, 2008, when I was only 3-1/2 days into my 30-day trial of the raw food diet.
Roger recorded the phone call from his end. My voice is a little faint on the recording, but you [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 24

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

Today was wonderful. I felt very energetic and alert the whole day with scattered bursts of low-level euphoria. The diet seemed much easier to follow, and I didn’t feel nearly as much resistance as I did during the past few days. I’m not completely in love with it, but at least I’m not hating it.
I did my [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 23

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Today was pretty good energy-wise. I feel mentally tired right now, but that’s probably because I put in some intensive work on my book today. No euphoria or heightened mental clarity today. In fact, the work seemed a little harder than it should have been. I had to tweak the wording endlessly to get it right.
I [...]

Raw Food Diet - Day 22

Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008

Today was good physically, although my energy felt a little lower than usual. I haven’t had any special feelings of euphoria for a few days now. For the most part, I’m feeling about the same as I did before this trial, at least physically.
The psychological aspects of this diet seem to be going downhill. I’m [...]
