So, about six months ago I got in touch with a raw guru guy who started me on green smoothies (morning and night), with that, everyday I ate for lunch/dinner a big green salad with a bunch of different veggies added in, among eating other raw foods. Everything went great during the summer/fall -- loved the food -- felt really healthy -- lost weight -- it was all coming together. Then one day (within the last month) I made my pitcher of green smoothies and just looking at it (and the smell) turned my stomach. I also couldn't stand the sight of a green salad. So, I gave myself a break for a few weeks hoping I'd get my desire back for the green stuff. Today I made a pitcher of green smoothies again, and the same thing. I could puke looking at it. I only got down half a glass so far. I also ate a spinach salad for lunch, but didn't really enjoy that either. I know since it's winter, and living in the northeast, the fruits and veggies are not fresh local produce. Everything tastes bland and old, and I'm freezing most of the time. Is anyone else going through this -- and how are you coping? Help!!!

Thanks for your comments. Each one has something I can relate to. I'll rotate the greens and hopefully get my desire back to eat/drink them, or maybe forget greens for awhile and make fruit smoothies. As I'm freezing most of the time I have been eating warm oat bran in the morning so I can warm myself from the inside. I'm realizing I can't eat in the cold months the same way I do in the warm months because the luscious local grown produce isn't there. This weekend I'll make some raw lasagna and zucchini hummus, which I haven't eaten since last winter -- and pray for an early spring.
