Day 22

I took this picture this afternoon.

I'm on my 22nd day of High Raw eating. I'm still amazed at the amount of energy I have. I'm a little tired of chewing so much. This leads me to the fact that although I'm moving kitchens in 2 weeks, I really need a blender here. I'm drinking supergreens drinks in order to get enough greens in, but since it's a busy time of year for me, I haven't spent much time playing with recipes or making green smoothies.

I read today on Matt Monarch's blog (an old blog about PCOS), that a raw diet without green smoothies is a deficient diet ... so I'll need to address this. I've got a Blendtec at the apartment in Houston, so I'll be set once I'm there. I'm ordering an Excalibur 5 tray for that kitchen as well, once I'm sure of when I'll be there to receive it.

So right now I'm eating a lot of foods in their natural state, which requires a lot of chewing. That tooth that will be okay until the winter when I get back to my dentist?? ... Well it's not so happy with all of this chewing. El Dentista gave me a porcelain filling rather than a crown, because he needed me to come back in a week, and I was already scheduled to be on the road. So we both expect it to be replaced with a crown this winter. However, there is a gap behind that tooth, which catches food often, and raw food is danged fibrous! I will say that right now I am the best flosser I've ever been in my life ... so that is the fringe benefit I am holding on to.
