RAWrrr!: Day Three

Tired, Rawr.

I didn't get over 7hrs of sleep last night. So today I've felt really tired and also pretty hungry. Being around, looking at, and smelling food all day was difficult. I had to pretend it was plastic and not an option several times. I got grouchy around 1:00 because of it.

I'm definitely detoxing. I have a coated tongue. I drank almost 4 liters of water today because I'm so thirsty.. and I ran to the bathroom at least ten times while I was at work.. That's about once every 45 minutes. I also ate much much more fruit/fruit juice than I ever usually do. I know the enzymes are cleaning my kidneys right out.

I had a ginger shot, which I've been avoiding since it's so warming and my dosha is Pitta.. But I decided that since ginger is such a strong detoxifier, and also causes the excess copper in my muscles to be released, why not? I'm already detoxing, bring it on. I had a good bit of fresh pineapple juice today, which was so totally awesome! I'm sure that will cause more impurities to be washed away as well. Yippee for that!

Am:

Rhodiola force 300 by New Chapter.

*The brand rep came into the store today and I told her I've been taking the 300 instead of the 100. After a brief discussion of the differences, I decided I'd be better off with the 100, as it's better for "mental clarity and not mountain climbing".

Dinner:

So, yesterday I made a pizza crust out of some juice pulp. I dehydrated it in the oven at 130 for 8hrs. It was mostly composed of parsley, some carrot, kale, garlic, and some apple.

I made sauce from a small beet, 3 small tomatoes, thyme, oregano, celtic sea salt, and olive oil. It was a beautiful deep red color. Pureed in my food processor, of course.

I made the 'cheese' from soaked sunflower seeds, fresh rosemary, fresh tarragon, celtic sea salt, ground pepper, flax oil, and 3 toes of garlic. Pureed in the food processor.

I layered the sauce, then a large handful of shredded zucchini and squash (2:1 ratio), then the seed cheese. I warmed it at 120 degrees in the oven until it was, well, warmed.. About 30 minutes.

To serve I sprinkled nutritional yeast.. which it totally optional because it was good enough without it. I also had a diced serrano chili, which was almost overly spicy and I could have done without it. I thought it almost looked like real pizza! Pictures are kinda lame. You get the point.
