cooked, delicious cooked.
i fell back into cooked food with much enthusiasm. i really pigged out and immediately managed to break my own rule regarding the axis of evil: sugar, wheat and dairy. yes, i ate all 3 and it was delicious!
-banana-strawberry shake (ran out of green powder)
-frittata sandwich with couscous-veggie salad from bleeding heart bakery - amazing!
-brownie (also from bleeding heart)
-marinated tofu with stir-fried cauliflower, carrots, mushrooms and spinach
-chocolate-banana torte (bleeding heart - holy shit this was good)
thanks to j. for a wonderful lunch and for the excellent suggestion of getting a second treat to go. so very yummy! might as well fall off the wagon in style, and organic style at that.
here's how pq fared:
What a crazy week. I feel so guilty about my lack of raw updates. This past week my hunger has been all over the place, but I've felt pretty good in general. The first two days I was eating again, I definitely felt kind of uncomfortable in the belly. As I mentioned, I find the feeling of complete emptiness really intoxicating, so eating was a little bit of a letdown. As this week of raw has progressed however, everything seems to have normalized. I've been doing the shakes, lots of nuts, avocados, carrots, almond butter, a couple filter bars, etc. That raw plate the other night was way too much food. The banana carob cake the next day however was superb. The last day or so most food has been especially unappealing. I even skipped the shake yesterday since it sounded gross. Unbelievable, I know! I did have soy milk yesterday though, so the transition off the raw has officially begun. I'm still tossing around these vegan and macro ideas, but for the next week I'm just going to take things as they come. Thinking about food all the time is exhausting!
That champagne went straight to my head the other night. I narrowly escaped the urge to drunk dial...

can i post what i've been eating? final review diet is the exact opposite of the raw! yesterday: 3 c. coffee, 2 donuts (care of theory prof) then oh! i had bought some salad fixins-so mixed greens, grape tomatoes, gouda, carrots (last review was all donuts and cookies, so this is an improvement). later: cherry yogurt, a lot of pretzels. ran into someone in the elevator who gave me a slice of pizza, ate another gross slice of weird fluffy pizza that had been sitting out all day (by this time, it was about 1 or 2 am) and i think i had an asian pear in there. and a coke.
today, out of milk at home so i got to crack open the sweetened condensed final review/emergency treat for my inaugeral cup of coffee. then two more cups of (Gross, free) coffee. then an espresso. then a banana. more salad, same as yesterday, a yogurt, some pretzels. ahh happy hour! 3 beers, doritos and somehow magically, dark chocolate covered ginger. a coke, a brownie (made from mix) debated another coffee but decided against it (9:30 pm, and i've been awfully jumpy today) oh and a mediocre trader joes indian food thing. and more pretzels.
surprisingly, my poops have been really good! i've probably lost weight too. however, the rest of me doesn't feel so great. more sleep would be nice-that would probably help with the constant low-grade headache (that and not staring at computer screen).
come to phila!
