I started going RAW on Jan.1st 2008. I started for health reasons and seeing a rheumatolosist tomorrow. I am not so sure I need him now as most of the pain in my body is gone. That’s right- GONE! Halleluja!!!
I have not had a 100% Raw day yet. Today has been very close though.I have lost eight pounds this far. I hope to get there and stay there! I would say I am 80 % depending on a couple of following questions.
I have got so many qustions, like is Ezekial products considered raw and what about tofutti or tempeh? I am guessing- No. Also I am having the worst heartburn on this new lifestyle change. Any ideas or remedies?
Please, someone help this newbie stay RAW! :)
Looking forward to meeting you all!

Hi Hippie Chick and Thanks for responding!
Can you tell me what “combining is actually”. I know what Suzanne Somers said. I did have dates and bannan’a for breakfast. I thought that would be okay. I had Ezekial cereal with rice milk for lunch and I had the raw taco salad for dinner. I seem to get this heartburn with every meal this far. I actually had to take a zantac since I posted. I just couldn’t take it anymore.
Thank you both so much! You have both been wonderful help!!!
Thanks Zoe. That has kind of clicked with me today when I was explaining some things to my husband. I told him if I didn’t make my food from raw fruits and vegetables, it was simply not 100% raw. After days of being on this diet, my head seems to be alot clearer. I am longing to be 100% raw!
Well I am ready to give up the tofutti and the tempeh, but I think for now I will keep the Ezekial bread in for a feeling of substance. Sometimes I feel like a sandwich is needed. I haven’t really got into my dehydrater yet to make my own raw bread.
