Day 21 - Time is passing quickly

Today is the sixth day of eating wheat. It is going by very quickly.

I fasted this morning -- trying to give my body a good opportunity to get rid of yesterday's food and some other special reasons. It was a wonderful morning.

I fed the boys the granola stuff I made as cereal along with a little raisin bran. One really liked it and the other one ate it but needed a bit of regular cereal after. lol

I finished up some carrot juice for lunch - didn't really feel like eating. If it takes my body this long to get to a norm after eating crappily, I can only imagine how the body really feels when we just over-inundate it over and over and over. I've done that all my life. Sad.

I had a small bowl of the granola stuff with some almond milk. I made some today and it was so easy. I don't know why in my mind I make everything so hard -- guess it's the unknown. I finally had some green smoothie in the evening. I'm just not feeling like eating. This is weird but I feel really good about it.

  1. Hey there!

    My name is Heidi and I am from Raw Food Right Now. Someone found your website and told me that you mentioned my site on your blog.

    I just wanted to say I have read through most of your blog and looked through your fascinating journey. I have been studying health for over 15 years, and raw food for over 5.

    I am very familiar with many grains from around the world. I am not sure if you are familiar with the grain "kamut", but according to many historians this is an ancient wheat.

    The wheat that we all consume today is not as traditional as what was eaten during biblical times. Many scholars also debate which grains were considered "wheat" during those times.

    Personally I can not eat a large amount of modern wheat, but I do eat many ancient relatives of wheat.

    Just food for thought.
    Good luck and happy health to all of you!

  2. Heidi,

    Thank you for your comment and what a surprise!

    We do have Kamut and also Spelt in our stored grains. However, the bulk of what we have is the modern day wheat. I'm glad to know grains are a part of your eating.

    I so love your site and am definitely going back to delve deeper.
