One of the biggest questions asked was why I felt the need to do the raw food diet. For those of you who think it is the most strange, absurd decision anyone could make, for someone who was battling an eating disorder, it might make “a lot of sense.” It all depends on perspective, what […]
Now that I’m “all grown up” in my nutrition and cravings knowledge, I thought it’d be interesting to look back at my old food journal entries to point out “what went wrong” during those binges and intense cravings (for all the raw food journal entries posted on the website, go here). Why did I feel so […]
July 16, 2011 My weight scares the hell out of me. I know I shouldn’t be surprised after bingeing again last night, but this feels like something out of my control and I feel alone in it. I only have myself to blame. I competed in the Tri Del Sol triathlon today. I’m surprised I […]
June 13, 2011 I went to Emily’s house for a “camping” trip with my cross country teammates this past weekend. I made sure to get in plenty of greens in multiple green smoothies before leaving. For supper I ate raw vegetables and some salad with salsa. Later that night I ate fruit and then indulged […]
May 29, 2011 Track nationals was quite the experience! I was able to eat fruit every morning from the cafeteria (and lots of it at that—about twelve small bananas with some apples for breakfast each morning). The competitors’ reactions to my plates of fruit were priceless. It was comforting with my teammate Rachel there though […]
May 4, 2011 I ate oranges and apples this morning (about ten fruits in all) as a good food combination. But my mouth was acidic afterwards…it felt strange and “sticky” if that’s the right word for it… I craved sweets by 2:30pm and caved into my dark chocolate, and then two sugary granola bars. But […]
April 20, 2011 These past few days I haven’t bothered to write down everything because it’s been pretty consistent, with no major new things to record. Just eatin’ my fruits and veggies! Yesterday was fantastic because Wege had a salad of avocado and spinach. I might have over-done it on the avocado (I should watch […]
April 16, 2011 I ran the 1500m and the 800m today. My races were pitiful to say the least. I felt drained. I don’t think it’s from the food–I’ve gotten very little sleep throughout the week, I stood for hours in the cold Thursday night at the high school track meet, I’ve been stressed with […]
April 14, 2011 I think this was my best raw food day yet. Breakfast: I tried out the flax seeds for the first time! I felt proud of myself when I used the coffee grinder to grind them. What an amazing tool. Shows how advanced I am in my food preparation skills…. I created my […]
April 12, 2011 Mood: This diet is new, so it’s exciting for me! Breakfast: 4 plums, banana, orange, Raw organic fiber bar, Larabar Today is the day I can test what the raw food will do for my stomach during the workout. We have a 12x400m workout on the track and a few weeks ago […]
