DAY 22 Blood Glucose: 101 Only 8 Raw Days Remaining . . . and Making Plans!

As you can imagine, going raw has been quite a feat. Some days I say to myself, "that's not bad" or, "this is not so hard." Still, other days begin with, "I just want some tuna or chicken" or, "that bread looks delightful." I've spent hours thinking . . . Where shall I go from here? Below is a list of some of the criteria I will lean on in order to remain successful in the reversal of my diabetes:
  • Have plenty of veggies daily; roasted or al dente is great too!
  • Eat consciously, remembering the "slippery slope" of high blood glucose numbers
  • Ask for specific food preparation at a restaurant; be creative when ordering
  • Lean proteins such as fish, turkey, and chicken are fine; portion control!
  • Test blood glucose numbers regularly to stay off all medications
  • Have snacks prepared and available at all times (veggies, fruit, nuts, and seeds)
  • Yoga, free weights, walking, and treadmill are just a few great ways to exercise daily
