A New Goal – 100 Days, 100% Raw!

Here’s another photo from the Mission Inn Hotel in Riverside, CA. A snow family that’s part of the Festival of Lights!

I’ve been waking up automatically at around 5-ish lately. And I like to practice piano early when there’s still less “white noise” around. Things have been busy lately.

I feel like the Randomguru taxi-service, picking people up at train stations or taking them to train stations. The gigs over the weekend were great fun. Both drum/percussion gigs for me this time. But I have two piano gigs coming up.

So, my next goal is to go 100% raw for 100 days. I’ve successfully survived being 100% raw for 30 days, so I think I’ve successfully made the transition very well, and I’m eating a balanced diet.

For me, whatever diet I am on, whatever I am eating, it has to make me feel good that when I perform it is effortless and with a lot of energy. And so far being 100% raw is working.

Though, I had a couple of times when I was very tempted to eat something non-raw. Like those hershey’s kisses sitting on the table in a waiting room. Or those bags of tortilla chips I was serving to my niece and nephew. There is still cooked food around me, and I still have to cook food for my children. They aren’t 100% raw yet, and I’m the cook in the family. I have to cook spaghetti and scrambled eggs for them. So, I must have strong will power, or I am just totally fine eating 100% raw foods now!
