Day 30 - People are noticing

I thought I'd be better at keeping my blog up to date. I thought I would keep a daily food log and have all sorts of insightful things to say. Hmmmm... not the case.

I have eaten cooked food twice since starting this challenge. This last time I was uncomfortable afterwards. I did not like the overly full feeling I had. My husband and I went to one of our favorite restaurants; Ramsi's on the World. I had a wonderful salad of mixed field greens and flower petals with some cooked vegetables on top. I had some paratha bread and I could not resist the falafel. I am a "Falafel Freak" and Ramsi's has some of the best I've ever tasted. I had some brown rice pilaf and a few slices of potato. I had very small portions of everything but it was just way too much heavy, cooked food. Weeks ago I could have eaten so much more. It was tasty but probably not worth it.

A few people have commented that I look thinner. Being 12 pounds lighter feels good. I'm not a size smaller, but my jeans are fitting looser. My sister-in-law gave me a compliment yesterday. She said my skin was glowing. My mom agreed and said maybe there is something to this raw food diet.

(going to make some green juice now)
