Different than it seems

In some ways, juicing was easier than eating real food. One of my chief problems with food has been figuring out -- meal by meal -- what to eat. When I was juicing, it was simple: eat the green juice in the fridge. It is not nearly so simple now.

The basics are simple enough. Eat a pound of raw vegetables. Eat a pound of cooked vegetables. Don't eat too many grains or beans. Avoid oil, salt, sugar, animal products and gluten. Eat four fruits a day.

Five simple sentences.

One would think that "avoid oil, salt, sugar, animal products and gluten" would be the sticking point. It is not so much. I am stuck on how to eat the pound of cooked vegetables. I guess I need to spend more time reading recipes.

I sort of miss the simplicity of juice. But not the clean up time.
