After much deliberation, I have decided to ease up on some of my rules re: eating only organic food. I'm going to give it a trial run. It was an important factor initially, for me, to do so. I think my brain also needed some "convincing" that safe food was indeed "safe." Perhaps, there is a psycho-hypnotic factor involved re: the organic issue and me? With the money I save, I can assist so many unfortunate individuals. Sometimes, I feel like such a snob re: this issue. I do have a few exceptions, though and some things are only available organically for me.
--1 c. puffed rice --1 c. new potatoes --puree of green beans and spinach, herbs, etc. --1 c. rice pasta --puree of asparagus and spinach, herbs, etc. --salad of roasted mushrooms and mesculn
Note that I divide my meals into demi-meals, or mini meals due to the fact that eating more than a half a cup or so of rice, potatoe, etc. at one time makes me feel too full and bloated. I am not used to eating so much.
No more lettuce/raw leafies for quite awhile is my decision. It's just too stimulating. Good-bye salad. Cooked greens, I'm fine with but the raw is too draining and triggering, so adieu. I choose to live without discomfort and D/loose bowels and excessive bathroom trips. I've got enough stress! Salad is a memory from now on, for me. I am listening to body and responding appropriately.
