Wow, it's October 1st already, and I see it's been almost a month since I posted last.
I have to say it's been a struggle, even though I wish it weren't. I did better with my workouts lately though. I haven't missed any last week or the weekend or this week, so glad for that!
I had an off day yesterday, felt really strange emotionally for some reason (partly PMS I think) and I ate chocolate and gluten free crackers, which made me feel ill of course. And today I am bloated and miserable.
But I don't want to dwell on the crappy things in life, just gotta move on and today I have the day off so I plan on lots of green juice and then probably some plain steamed veggies and salad and rice. I have decided I was causing myself too much stress trying to be all raw every day, I realized I was doing that at the cost of doing what actually works best for me, which is to eat smaller meals /snacks throughout the day and to keep it really low fat, instead of that I was stressing myself out and eating too many nuts and avocados and raisins which make me feel ill and bloated. I think I have to pick my battles here and my main goal is to eat in a way that supports training and my goal to drop body fat, and I definitely can't do that eating things that compromise my digestion. So my goal for October is to concentrate on that. It will still be mostly raw, just not all raw every day. I have to stop stressing myself out.
I don't think I've had more than a day during the whole of last month when I haven't had a sore, bloated stomach from too much or the wrong type of food :(
I find it so hard to think today due to what I ate yesterday, the mental fog from poor food choices is terrible. Anyway, I just have to get through today so that is my goal for now. It's always just 1 day at a time.
I think that finding what works for you is the key. Keep up the good work and get rid of that stress!
