Just catching up with my daily raw log...

So, I haven't blogged or logged anything since February 17th - wow! I can use the usual excuse that I've been busy, and yada, yada, yada...but the truth of the matter is I just haven't made time.

I have done some experimenting, but not a lot. I guess you could say I haven't been feeling a 100% lately, so that is partly why I haven't been in the mood to write. I am proud to say though, that my back is doing much better, and that I haven't had to take a lot of pain meds. In fact, I haven't taken one since Friday, and that was the first pill in a couple days too. So, that's great news to me!

I also weighed myself on Friday. I've lost another 2 pounds. I'm down to 158lbs. which is great for me. I still have a long way to go. I will take my measurements again later.

Yesterday I purchased some pre-made raw mango salsa - which tasted good, but may have upset my stomach - I'm not sure. Then again, it could have been the coconut meat and water which I used to make my pina coloda shake yesterday. I think one of the coconuts I broke open may not have been as fresh as it could have been, and therefore it may have been the reason why I got sick. Regardless, I feel fine today....

Tonight I made a mango cheesecake. A great recipe that I found on the www.goneraw.com site. I didn't get to use orange zest - so I used coconut flakes, and lemon zest. Also, I exchanged the Irish Moss for grounded Chia Seeds, because my moss wasn't becoming gelatinous like it was supposed to be when I added the water. The cake looks great, but not ready for pics yet, since it needs to set overnight. I'll tell you more about it then.

Well, that's it for me for tonight. To follow is my daily raw logs since February 17th.

Have a great week, and keep it raw!
