drinking the green kool-aid

Green kool-aid is how I like to describe the cult-like experience of raw food, or really any crazy diet. People always seem half-fascinated and half-horrified by my commitment to cleaning my colon, so I thought I'd share my experiences in excruciating detail. As with any train wreck, it's hard to look away. Nonetheless, I've managed to pick up some comrades along the way, as a result of my dear friends' curiosity and solidarity. Others interested in drinking the green kool-aid, holla.

day 16. i ate cooked food today!

  • green shake (with banana, of course!)
  • banana (huge!)
  • 2 peaches
  • 14 brazil nuts
  • 1 orange
  • 1 apple
  • smoothie (1.5 bananas, peanut butter - not raw!, apple juice)
  • date-coconut thing
  • 1/2 wheat wrap
  • some tofu fajitas!

banana count: ~4!

after feeling really terrible for much of the day, it occurred to me that i hadn't eaten more much than sugar in recent days. i decided it was time to eat a little cooked food. it was so good! and, because i kept it in moderation, i didn't even feel sick. looks like i am back on the road to my former being. for the sake of science, i'll try to weigh in today or tomorrow, to see what happens with the raw-induced weight loss.
