This raw soup is my best trick for quitting sugar...

Yes, I do an "extreme" raw vegetable cleanse sometimes...In fact, I do it once a month lately.Why? I love how it feels. I avoid any foods that may have crept back into my diet that can clog up my works (better known as the Toxic 6: gluten, dairy, corn, soy, sugar and caffeine) and enjoy a 3-day fest of non-starchy vegetables.It resets my metabolism, calms my cravings for sugar, and flattens my belly...So I offered the plan to the people in my Cravings Cleanse group, and they dove in.Here's my favorite, rich, satisfying avocado soup:Raw Pro 3-Day Kick Start: Avocado Soup (image by Sarah Hammond) Here's how you can make this delicious, filling Avocado Soup:

This soup is filled with alkaline ingredients, and the fat from the avocado is very satisfying and helps your body burn fat rather than sugars from carbs, the best way to lose weight while balancing your mood. 1 avocado, peeled and pitted1 lemon, rind and seeds removed3-4 romaine lettuce leaves, washed1 cup cucumber (peeled if very thick skin) 1 stalk celery1⁄4 cup flat leaf parsley leaves1⁄2 teaspoon sea salt 2-3 cups water
