• not sure what i’m going to do. i started raw in april and it was pretty cold then. i hope staying mostly raw would combat seasonal affective disorder which i tend to get. but i am considering cooked soups with only veggies (no beans or grains).

• Don’t even think of that as food. Just see it as another object. Think of it like meat—off limits! Only let yourself have what you bring. If you do this for like a few weeks you might be out of the habit of nibbling.
