I haven't really tried to do 811 ever. I would give it a shot for a day or two or three but i would always just eat something else that was more comfortable for me.

My roommate went 100% 811 about 8 months ago which i can see has helped her a ton but even still wasn't enough for me to it, i just always ate what i wanted when i wanted.

I never had a extreme degenerative disease to motivate me to make the switch nor have i been a high level athlete that needed to reach the next level.

I sell work boots at my family owned and operated business. And my family are all SAD eaters. So nothing really to give me a push.

I just been eating what i want when i want and recently at whole foods i was hungry and i was looking for something more emotionally satisfying and more numbing so to speak but i just couldn't find anything that just hit the spot. I just kept thinking out a certain food would make me feel and i always just went back to fruit.

So its like i was trying to cheat and even gave myself permission to "cheat" and i was like no thanks i don't think i want to right now. It was very strange to me that i could make it this far on this diet without really trying, just kind of letting the fruit guide me. The more fruit i ate the better i felt so why not just eat fruit, salads and some cooked unsalted unseasoned potatoes. Eating this way just fills me and makes me feel like nothing else could.

Thanks Doug
