8-1-1 time!

i have decided to give the 8-1-1 diet another try. i tried this last time i was 100% raw but it failed b/c i unknowingly wasn't getting enough iron, and thought that i needed more fat to fill me up/have energy. now, i feel GREAT on 100% raw and am leaning away from nuts & other heavy foods anyway. i tried it yesterday, and eating no overt fats during the day worked really well. i will be relying a lot on bananas to keep me full since they are so cheap and i love them :)

i'll post food later- gotta get to work now. we have guests from Germany and i have to serve them muffins/croissants/bagels and coffee at 8 AM. how people can eat such crap early in the morning is a mystery to me... but i used to be one of them! well, i never ate crap, but i used to eat a big breakfast every morning. now, i am finding i eat lighter & lighter in the AM, yet i don't get that ravenous, must-devour-everything-in-sight feeling i'd get on cooked foods if i didn't eat a big breakfast.

i love raw :)
