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.

rawrawraw.

after experiencing the extreme denial of the master cleanse (NO FOOD!), the raw diet seems like such a breeze. i haven't had a hard time at all and i'm not really craving any cooked food. to be fair though - my right wrist is in a cast - i couldn't cook even if i wanted to.

what i ate:
- apple with almond butter
- green shake (old school, original formula style)
- carrots, guacamole
- kiwi
- salad: spinach, carrots, beets, raisins, cucumber, peppers
- handful of almonds
- banana

possibly some other stuff. honestly, this day is a blur and i can't quite remember. also, i'm getting sick. that means headache, congestion, runny nose. i know these are all detox symptoms, but that's not what's going on here after a mere 48 hours. i think i've been through a lot this week and my body's playing catch up. we'll see what happens.
