Weekend of Cooked Food

Hello World,

Friday evening I went to Ruby Tuesday and was very proud of myself because I usually get the mini ruby hamburgers with the salad bar but I but I only got the salad bar and it was very delicious I must say. I was so tempted by the food on my sister's plate. She got the mini burgers, french fries and the salad bar and the food was calling my name so loud!!! I left the restaurant feeling very good about only eating the salad bar. I was stuffed but I did not have the feeling that my food was just sitting in my stomach like I used to have when I ate cooked food.

Saturday was when I chose to eat something cooked. It was a very busy day and I did not pack my food like I usually do so I got hungry very quickly. I sat through an hour and half graduation ceremony and was famished! At the reception I ate some red beans and rice. And then off to a BBQ where I ate watermelon and half a hamburger. Though I did not eat that much cooked food I started to regret it hours after. I noticed I got very tired. On Sunday I had decided that maybe I jumped into eating raw to quickly instead of transitioning. I also decided I would add one cooked meal for dinner everyday and this week it would be brown rice and red potatoes.

But this morning I could feel the effects of eating cooked food because I could barely wake up. I felt so heavy and sick. As I type this blog I can still feel the food sitting in my stomach. I worked out at 6:00am but all i could think about was the food sitting in my stomach. I hate this feeling so much and definitely do not miss it. I told myself I would go back to 100% raw at the end of this week but I actually think I will switch back tomorrow. My lesson was well learned.
