Day 8, I think !!!!!!

You cannot feed an emotional hunger with food - you can only feed a physical hunger.

Anything you eat when not genuinely physically hungry will be stored as fat !

I eat emotionally, Good job I do as I would of faded away by now,...! (Statement)

This week as been a piece of cake !!!

It's been easy as I have had lots of filling Juices and Smoothies, Today it's gonna get harder.....lol. Why !!!

Because now I need to challenge myself....Only kidding uhmmmmm or am I ?

I have been drinking lots of green juices/smoothies.

I have juiced:-

3 apples
Large handful of spinach
1 cucumber
3 sticks of celery

I have then poured this ingredients into my blender adding an avocado and a banana ..

Loadsa calories Yum !!!!

As you guy's know I am doing this purely to document the ups, downs and symptoms, so I can use this particular programme to help someone rid a debilitating illness.

I feel as though I have gained a few pounds but that is because I have drank that particular juice twice a day along with lots of nut milk. (Healthy weight gain.)

So I am now passed 1/2 way I have had no symptoms fever etc, but I think that's more due to the fact that my body is used to doing a six day fast.

So I am thinking the fevers are on there way...... lol.

I have not felt hungry (due to the amount in the juices)

I have had a couple of days were I have not felt completely balanced but that's due to someone around me feeling sad.

I am an emotional eater !!!!!!

To be honest I don't eat very much for hunger.

I eat more when I am sad and so much less when happy..

( bring on lots of happiness I hear you all saying) Sooooooo Laughing... If only ay.

So for those couple of days I was slightly tempted to eat but that passed quickly when I stepped back into the moment...((Hugs))

So for the second phase I am going to try and keep the liquids lighter which will encourage the clean out to up the score.

So this week I intend to water and nut milk fast in a morning then have a couple of juices or smoothies in the afternoon.

Which is when I tend to want more, I tend to get hunger pangs between 2-3pm....and then again at 8pm...The 8pm one is emotional.

My house becomes quiet the children are all in bed then I stand still and go...

Oh what shall I do now!

I am not very good at doing nothing...lol.

Hence four children, three dogs, two guinea pigs....lol

And everything else life throws at us..(Hugs all)

The Seven Deadly Dietary Sins

'Deadly' may sound somewhat over the top, but as the following dietary sins contribute heavily towards thousands of premature deaths every year in the UK alone....Maybe mot...!

I believe knowing about the foods that are high in refined salt,fat and sugar is important.

Knowing that these contribute to more disease and premature deaths than all illegal drugs combined ! Gives us choices.... If we know, we can take Action.

It might be asking too much to eliminate all seven deadly sins from your diet given that they are hidden in almost every convenience food we consume.

But cutting down on them or swapping them for an abundance of foods from the six Essential Dietary Needs will make a significant difference to your body shape,energy levels and overall health.

So Refined Sugar, Refined Fats, Alcohol,Artificial Sweeteners, Caffeine, Salt, Dairy Products are all responsible for thousands of deaths and the start of most diseases.

To be honest to avoid all these completely you have to go natural.... Back to your porridge for breakfast, Soup for lunch and Your Meat and veg for dinner.

All fresh ingredients. Obviously this way would of been cooked I just took it to the next level to get the best out of it all.

I have no opinion on how Raw someone should be (some raw foodists are very out spoken on this) If you are 50% raw and suffer no illness and you are happy with how you feel then that works for you...((Hugs))

I am a all or nothing kind of girl, I can't do a little of something, I have no willpower.

I took all of the process out of my life as that was the only way to keep me focused.

People ask me how am I not tempted...!!! Easy don't have them in the house.

Once upon a time if those item were in my house I would of eaten them rather than the fruit or veg... Which was no good so they for me all had to go.

And having four young children it is not as though I can just pop out to the shop for a quick chocolate fix !!!LOL

I recently read a statement saying that the Raw food diet was an Extreme Diet !!!!lol

It is natural

It is what we are supposed to eat

It is now classed as extreme because we are educated to believe that burgers,chips or ice cream to name a few is actually ok to eat.... Please....You wanna eat it fine but lets not kid our self.

We ain't eating it to benefit us nutritionally...Are We..lol.

The Government is now working hard with the NHS to educate us on how to get our minimum of 5 a day.

Come on what as happened where did that become so difficult to do.

I was once there. Feed your child 3 processed meals a day and there is not much room for the snacks on fruit.

Skip the processed for Breakfast and already you Mummy Will Make A Difference.

One smoothie with maybe 3 pieces of fruit in it and a banana before school, they are already nearly there.

Fruit is offered in most schools now at snack time...

If anyone out there would like some tips specially if you are on a budget, let me know and we can throw some ideas around.

Anyway not sure where my blog as tweeted off too tonight.

But God bless, Love yas all.
