thoughts and ideas

hmmm, my raw food weight-shedding has proved shortlived. it seems like whatever i do to adjust my eating and exercise habits, my body adjusts within a week and refuses to drop another ounce. and i figure if i go back to a non raw diet, i'll just gain the weight right back. speaking of the body. i have a raw observation. now that i am eating raw, i no longer wake up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. i wonder why that would be. i hope i am drinking enough water. maybe it's just my elimination system that has changed. anyway. i like to make juice at work and my favorite combo is this: half a cucumber, a small apple, a little ginger, and however many caroots you want. the cucumber is fresh and the apple is sweet. i like adding cukes much better than bitter celery. my boss told me that they've had yoga teachers bring in mung bean sprouts to blend into smoothies! i'd never thought of that, but it's a good way to get all the sprout nuturient went you get bored of putting them on salads all the time. he also told me that radish sprout go well with raw fish. i'll have to give these ideas a try.
