I saw a link to this article on Times Online and I started thinking could I live off a raw food diet?  Over the last couple years for the most part cut out red meat and pork from my diet and try to be more conscious in what I throw in my body.  I’ve cheating on the diet at times, but I figure I used to eat a lot of unhealthy things all the time and if I do it once in a while it’s probably okay.  I’m not on the diet to lose weight, just be healthier.  I’ve definately cut back quite a bit and I don’t know if I am healthier, but I feel healthier and I’ve had a lot better scores during my physicals.

I just don’t think I could do a raw food diet.  I think I would always desire other foods and when I go out to eat I wouldn’t choose the raw food dish.  When they say raw food diet it states that it’s a vegan style diet.  I think I may be able to get away with that and say raw fish.  I may be able to do that, but then again I usually like eating the sushi with rice.

I think cutting back and eating what I eat now has been a pretty big struggle.  I think I was able to sacrifice some things, but still able to enjoy others.  In the raw food diet to me it seems like I’d be sacraficing almost everything.  I guess right now in my life that’s not something I’m willing to try.  That may change in the future though.
