Well, well, well...so much for the new plan!
I am very sorry to see that I have only been able to stick to the plan around 30% of the time. This is not a great figure obviously, but I have found out some holes in the plan that I had filed to cover. Today, however, was a better day in terms of physical activity.
I have also come across certain issues which were not there before, but have cropped up now (more about them in some later post, after some postmortem). So now this whole is dedicated to experiments with various techniques and finally coming up with a game plan.
It seems to me as if something is here already, but is just out of reach...Now working on increasing my reach. More power to me! :D

Can eating healthy really impact the way one feels?
I was reading this article at stevepavlina.com and I really started wondering when I reached the point where he says that vegans tend to have better relationships. Now I have been a vegetarian all my life but am I good at relationships? According to my friends, I suck at 'em. Do I really? That's a different story for different time...
For now, I need to understand if the way I eat affects the way I feel. Sure, I agree that if I put good stuff in my body, I am showing that I care about what happens to my body. But who will decide what is good and what is bad? If I crave a certain kind of food, what does it mean? Am I not caring for my body then? Am I numbing my senses to postpone facing ugly truths?
To know these answers once and for all, for the next 21 days I am going off anything that is called 'junk food'. No more eating anything that is not cooked/concocted in my house. I will also try to keep it as fresh as possible.
So for next 21 days I am committing to:
1. Light dinner, heavy breakfast
2. 50-60% raw diet
3. At least half hour of some physical activity everyday
4. No junk food, no sodas, no bakery item
5. Sweets as less as possible - can't swear off them completely, coz I have one heck of a sweet tooth!
6. Writing about my experience
This is a tall order, but I am going for it.
Hopefully, I will come out enlightened on the other side of this experiment.
Ciao for now.
