| First off, let me congratulate Jinjee on conceiving her fifth child. This is WONDERFUL. Matzeltov! I've been following Jinjee for a long time and have read her ebooks a number of times, picking up something every time. However, I just had to comment on her latest journal entry. I really do commend her for being open and honest. I'm suspicious of any rawfood guru who proclaims to be 100% raw WITHOUT exceptions EVER. I really do think that Jinjee is being way too hard on herself as we women are wont to do a lot of times. A baked potato isn't the worst thing in the world to eat. She has achieved quite a lot and no one is perfect EVER. One might not be eating 100% raw but 99 is better than 99 of the rest of the population that is getting fat, decrepit and old. I know because I take care of a lot of people with dementia who have grandchildren well on their way to nursinghome status themselves. Jinjee don't be so harsh on yourself. Perhaps the issues with the children's behavior isn't so much the cooked foods but your emotional state over having eaten them. It's not that bad. A lot more people respect you I'm sure.

It's in her journal section. Not all of it is here because it is a thing I paid for a long time back when I bought the ebooks.
Here's ane excerpt:
I want to share an experience that I have just come through by the grace of God. I recently found out I am pregnant with our 5th child. Although at first I was excited I soon thereafter chose to become angry and then depressed about this. Feeling sorry for myself I indulged in certain foods that not only weren’t raw but were of a low quality.
---
I walked to town and heard some children shouting and they sounded so stressed, angry and mean and because of seeing the differences in myself I just knew it was their diets. I noticed I was becoming more angry and impatient with everyone in my family. I noticed that my son Adagio who is still nursing at 2 and a half had his first diaper rash! And – one of the main turning points for me - he started flipping out, having temper tantrums, throwing things, crying all day, and hitting people.
---
So even after thirteen years of being mostly 100% raw I am still battling against the demons of cooked food addiction! And I think to myself is it worth it – all this battling? And I realize life is always a battle. If I wasn’t battling my addictions I would be battling cancer instead (as I was before I went raw). This way at least I get to choose the battlefield. And that is one of the most important strategies to know if you are playing to win.
