Yes, it is a crash diet. You have to have the discipline to move into the proper maintenance routine after you've completed it or else you'll just gain it all back.

i agree, a good thread on this (this is a very risky diet and i prolly won't ever do it again)

I do love salads more than I eat them though, I need to go out and buy all the little extras that make salads good.. olives, dried fruits, walnuts, etc. My mom was over and made a salad last week and threw in some strawberries and blueberries we had in my fridge here, it was really good, I'll do that more.
Must be a trip to walk through the supermarket for you, all the things must be so foreign and past life no?

cooking is fine, other than cooking out some enzymes here and there but you are already eating raw too (fruits & vegetables) if you eat 2x the amount of f&v over protein, you are eating a lot of raw foods! re: nuts/legumes, look for raw almonds <-- best of the best.

Muscles definitely hurt all day today, but when I went to do the exercises it wasn't an issue at all.
Do people that workout hard regularly basically live in a state of tight tender muscles all year round or what?

good keep it up. the soreness will go away but you want to exercise as hard as possible and try and recreate that soreness. you will find it is hard to do.
