Day 17

Weight: 14 stone 3 lb

Total weight loss since day 1: 12 lb

Jumped on the scales today and weighed exactly 14 stone 3 lb, so I think I've lost a couple of ounces since yesterday but I was hoping to reach 14 stone 2 lb...I will have to be more patient. 

Have family over from the UK staying with me and was doing great raw-wise...until dinner-time, when everybody wanted to have a fish 'n' chips take away! Now, have you ever sat at a dinner table with everybody eating fish 'n' chips and you have just got a salad, that you are so bored with... it's very hard I can tell you, and my resolve broke and I had two big handfuls of gorgeous-tasting, hot chips. 

I also have to confess that I indulged in a small beer while waiting in the fish 'n' chip shop with my uncle and earlier one glass of white wine before dinner, as everyone else was drinking Baileys and beer...I felt a bit left out! 
(Though I do believe that wine is actually raw: Is wine raw? Click here for more info)

I have to say I do feel guilty but I'm not going to torture myself over it as I can use this blog as my confession board.

I have to mention that over the past week I have been struggling to eat salads, and usually just have one small plate of salad and then I'm done. However, with adding the chips, I had two platefuls of salad and I really enjoyed eating both the chips and the salad together and I actually discovered my appetite again for food. So, in a sense, the cooked food stimulated my appetite to eat more raw food....and now I feel really stuffed and won't be eating (or drinking) anything else tonight!

I would rather be eating chips!

I have felt really good all day and I've been feeling generally lighter in myself...and it will be interesting to see how my body reacts from my indiscretions today. 
Like they say... tomorrow is another day and the new day gives us all a chance to start anew. (Which I will do).

Oh, BTW it rained all of yesterday, it rained all day today...and it's going to rain all day tomorrow, so the sun doesn't always shine over southern Spain! (It's difficult to stay raw when it's peeing down outside as well, as you just want comfort food and no matter how much I try to convince myself, there's no comfort in salad!)

Confessions over for now...

Hasta pronto
