Day 7/ Detoxing, Struggle, and Enlightenment

I didn't get this post out yesterday because I was so tired...I'm definitely detoxing.

But anyhow, yesterday my eating schedule was per usual: a berry-banana smoothie in the morning, and later I prepared the Cheezy Corn Chowder again and it came out even better this time (I added an extra tablespoon of nutritional yeast). Finally, I prepared the Creamy Kale recipe with Organic Spring Mix substituted for the kale.

Except this time the Organic Spring Mix came out bitter. I can't figure out if it was because I added too much garlic, or maybe because I substituted Bragg Liquid Aminos for the lemon juice and sea salt, or if it was because I ate it right after I ate the Cheezy Corn Chowder and the change in flavor made the salad taste bitter? I don't know...I made the salad from the second half of the same batch of salad that I used earlier in the week. I ate it anyway but I wonder about that.

I'm still struggling with my coffee fix. I've made things a little more difficult for myself because I ran out of ground coffee at home. So this means that if I want coffee, I have to take the extra step and go to the store and buy some. I'm hoping that this will discourage me even further.

I have been doing so much reading about raw veganism that I am slowly becoming a closet expert (well, not really). I've learned that you can heat raw vegan soups, as I stated in my previous post, and I have learned that you can use a dehydrator to make all the things you loved about Doritos, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut.

I have also realized that eating fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and seeds makes me feel closer to God. I think it is because now I am eating the food that He prepared for me to eat, for the first time.

I've noticed that I'm losing weight but I don't want to weigh myself until the end of the cleanse (Join The Lifeit Detox 28 Days Raw Food Cleanse). But I can see the difference in the mirror.
