Well I just finished my Third week and I'm still going. Although, I wasn't as successful as the past 2 weeks. On Friday I woke up late and had to get right to work. Because I was late and I was a little behind already, I wasn't able to take a lunch break. So, no breakfast, no lunch and then I left my first job late & I just didn't feel like rushing to prepare a raw meal and I had been craving cooked food especially some chicken, so....before I had to start my 2nd job, I ordered a pizza and some wings from Pizza Hut. That was really bad (and expensive) mostly because it was the only thing I ate on Friday....no raw food at all. I really blew it. But I'm determined to make this transition because I can already feel myself loosing weight and I feel more energy, so, I've eaten more raw today and yesterday, I've had some cooked veggies. I went out to eat Saturday & today. Saturday I just had a salad & a baked potato. Today I didn't do as great, but I had a great salad for dinner and I got some apples today for my green smoothy in in the morning. I'm ready to have a great week.
I've been trying to collect recipes that I think I will like. Starting next week (when I can afford to go shopping again) I'm going to shop for at least 2 or three recipes that I can make during the week and I will try to make at least one of them on the weekend and one on Wednesday my night off so that when I have a day like Friday, I'll have something that I can just grab and the temptation to eat horrible food won't be as easy to give into.
Anyway that was my week. I'm not gonna beat myself up about it I'm just gonna keep trying to eat mostly raw everyday, every week, & every month. Hopefully, I'll get better and better as I go along. One day maybe I will decide to eat all raw......wish me luck.

I'm starting my third week too!
I was raw for 3 whole months, then I had a falling out for two, and now I'm back on.

good luck!
Thank you guys sooooo much for the encouragement. It really helps to hear encouraging words. Liger99 congrats on starting again. I believe that no matter how many times you have to start over as long as you don't give up your goals are attainable. So no worries...just keep on keeping on. :)
Luxdivon thanks for the encouraging words....I don't have any blueberries but I will definitely try that when I get some. Today I treated myself to "Loving It Live" which is a raw restaurant that's right here in my neighborhood. The food was great!
That was my motto: "Just keep on keeping on"
Everytime I binged, I would go, "Is this who i want to be? I need to pick myself up and keep moving foward."
Every step is an improvement, even if it doesn't seem like it.
