As I said before I try to make every day between 60 and 80% raw. In the mornings I make my juice which takes me upwards of 20 minutes between making it and cleaning up. Shortly after I have to eat fruit cos of course the juice doesn’t stay down for long, so on to peeling and eating. I can not eat a big amount of fruit in one go so I have to eat often. At lunch-time I make a salad and a different meal for my family. I find that I spend a lot of time of the day eating/preparing food. Before, if I was hungry, I ate a sandwhich (5 min prep time and 2 min to wolf it down) and it stayed down for at least 3 hours. Also, if I go out, I can hardly fill myself enough to last me for the few hours that I might be out. I sometimes take a snack with me like carrots, or nuts or dried fruits or something but again that will only last me for a few hours. So going out most of the time means I end up getting a sandwhich somewhere if I go out for any lengh of time.
Don’t get me wrong, I think this lifestyle is awesome and i can not believe how much more energy I have because of it. But i find the “logistics” of it a bit hard. Anyone else or am I doing something wrong?

I absolutely agree with the difficulty level. I may want to deyhdrate burgers but by the time they have dehydrated for an entire day I am not sure I want to eat them all week. I am not a fan of nut mush for burgers either. I have not yet been able to acquire the desire for mush anything, so anything wrapped in a leaf is bothering me. Since I have to soak nuts and what not over night, my need for immediacy makes my interest in the final product wain. I don't have a family to feed either.
Well that would be nice, but hubby does not get home until 630-700 pm. So dinner needs to be prepared before then so we can enjoy our evening together.
