As alot of you know, I have been following a 75% raw diet for the last two years. I started slowly and increased it over time. My goal is to become 100% raw, but I have no deadline at this point to accomplish 100% and I'm OK with that right now. Living a raw food lifestyle is a choice and a commitment which can sometimes be difficult, but not impossible. It just takes planning. Too many of us are constantly on the go from the moment we awake until we drop like a stone in bed at the very latest hours. We eat on the go, we talk to our children on the go, we even work on the go. We need to take some time to slow down and literally smell the roses!
Lots of us make choices everyday with our homes, our cars, our jobs; we rarely do that with our bodies and our diets. We make choices everyday to eat what we eat, but don't think about it. It's mindless and "easy". But think of your doctor bills and dentist bills, health insurance and co-pays. Those are not easy to digest especially if you are one with ongoing health issues.
What I'd like you to do is really think about what you eat for a day, even write it down. Then, make a choice and a commitment to change just ONE thing you eat that is not healthy for you, either eliminating it or replacing it with something healthy. Choose something you actually like, such as a piece of fruit, some nuts or seeds or even a carrot and back it up with a reason why: Because it takes good, it's good for me, it's pure, it's simple and easy. Do that for one month and you won't go back to eating that "other" food again, whatever it WAS. Then do it again the next month, and again the month after that.
