After eating raw foods for 30 days, I learned a few things about the raw food lifestyle. These are more of the technical aspects of eating raw. Since I’ve had a couple of you e-mail me about the raw food diet experiment, I decided to make a separate post detailing some of the things I [...]

Do you know the #1 reason why most New Year’s resolutions don’t pan out? Most people don’t hold themselves accountable. In fact, 95% of the people that make New Year’s resolutions, don’t even write them down. Most people think about their goals and they implement strategies to achieve those goals, but because they don’t hold themselves accountable, they [...]

A few of you, who followed the Raw Food Diet Experiment, have asked me questions on how to start becoming raw foodists. Although I am no longer on the 100% raw foodist path (I’m currently at 70-80% raw foods), I have walked it and I have a few suggestions in mind. Rather then respond to each e-mail individually, [...]

While on the raw food diet I had some strong cravings for cooked food (meat in particular) and I wanted to find out why. My research lead me to believe cooked food is addictive. It’s like a drug, but almost no one realizes this because we eat it every day. It’s like drinking coffee every [...]

As you know, I made it the entire 30 days on the Raw Food Diet. The last few days were particularly rough. I really had to battle my cravings using everything I had. Today I was relieved that I could give in to the temptations, but had some reservations about eating cooked food again. My primary [...]

I’ve made it to Day 30! Whew! What a ride. That’s 30 full days of raw food and sticking with it was not easy. It’s probably one of the toughest things I’ve done in my life, mostly due to the discipline I had to exercise in order to keep myself from eating cooked foods. I’m [...]

I woke up to the sound of the alarm today. I felt a little tired and I didn’t have the energy I usually have. After taking my measurements, I went and made breakfast. I kind of wanted to pop open a box of cereal and eat it with some soy milk. I just kept staring [...]

Sleeping a total of 5 & 1/2 hours, I woke up 30 minutes before the alarm clock rang. I felt refreshed and wide awake. I handled the hygiene and took my measurements. I’ve noticed that my weight has stopped dropping so dramatically and even though I’m still losing weight, it’s in very small increments. I think I’ve [...]

I beat the alarm clock today, waking up 10 minutes before it was supposed to go off. After getting out of bed I wanted to go to the kitchen and drink some soy milk. I had this insatiable thirst for it. I figured I would be fine after eating breakfast, but the craving stayed with [...]

Today started out kind of hectic. I woke up 20 minutes later than usual. The power went out in the middle of the night and the incident reset my alarm clock. I sleep in a pitch dark room and cover my alarm clock with a piece of cloth every night before I go to bed. [...]
