Day 9: 99.9%, Green Smoothies, and Sashimi

Something tells me that 99.9% is a better description of my raw diet at the moment. I'm sure there are details that I am not catching but you know what, this is not about perfection. This is about self improvement. For the last week my boyfriend and I have been getting up early and hitting the gym and we feel great. We've been reforming our over sleeping ways and investing time into our physical self. It's amazing how everything has gotten better after we made this choice. We'll actually we've made several choice. We've cut back on drinking (as in not drinking), we've been eating raw (rawer in his case), working out everyday, Getting up at 7 am/ 8 am, keeping the house clean, and listening to this book "The Psychology of Success" and between all of that our live are way better. In seven days our lives are noticeably better. 

Green smoothies have a big part of the last seven days. I read an article about Raw Model on the Huffington Post and in it he talks about green smoothies. They are the perfect breakfast and an awesome way to get super gummy greens in at the start of the day.

I've been really craving fish for the last few days so I decided to get some sashimi today for lunch. I've never really like sashimi until really recently and I must say it was quite good. Which brings me to and interesting idea of not labeling ourselves. For me, I feel that not labeling myself a raw food vegan it so much healthier for my sense of metal well being. It's like declaring your on a diet, it's like your doomed from the start. All that focus on what you can't have, what you can have. I feel better when I just consistently make the choice to be excited by raw foods, to eat raw foods, to research raw food. Just a little food for thought.
