• Excellent tread. Maria23, I’m very obsessed too, heehee! Woah! I just did the test and it freaked me out. I came to the conclusion that I need to resolve my issues with food before returning to the raw path and even, gulp, the vegan path. That sa…

• I really agree with you Rawrach about listening to our stomach when we are hungry. Come to think of it, I haven’t felt hunger for quite a while. Constantly feeding myself made me forget what hunger is about. I read that fasting can unbalance our hun…

• Wow, Teade, Alix, I’m happy to know that I’m not alone. I tend to eat a lot too, especially when I’m anxious, bored or stressed. The ED is still under control but we never know what challenges life has in store for us. Nevertheless, I’m currently …

• a salad for breakfast? That’s interesting. I have the same problem as you when eating fruits in the morning. Even green smoothies as a breakfast makes me crave sugar. Can you describe what’s a typical breakfast salad for you? Sorry if I didn’t rea…

• I agree with jgagnon and Nekkotronik! It’s not always easy to find raw products and sometimes, it can be expensive when we order it from the USA. I have a feeling it’ll be more and more easier to be raw in Canada.

• David, we do seem to be in the same moment of transition. I feel when I let it go, I crave raw foods naturally. But right now, a little vegan cooked food makes me feel good. Well, I’ll make it at 100% raw one day. Baby steps. I guess cleanses and f…

  in Green smoothie fast? Comment by Nezumi
• Is anyone still on the cleanse? Unfortunately, I had to call it quits. It has nothing to do with the green smoothie cleanse. It’s really a great experience and my skin was glowing for the first days. I’m just in this phase of getting annoyed and i…

• That’s a good question topcat. I think I’m going to add seeds too in my smoothies. Maybe I’ll feel more full and eat less fruit. I drank two quarts of green smoothie and in the evening I had a salad. I’m really craving something fat. Maybe tahini …

• How’s everybody doing? I did my three quarts of green smoothie yesterday. I don’t know why but after my second green smoothie, I started having a migraine which lasted all night. Detox maybe, too much sugar? Anyway, I took some aspirin this morning…

• Whoa! I don’t know if it’s the green smoothie but I’m filled with happy thoughts this morning. I’m sending all my positive energy to you all! I’m off to school!

• I feel the same way you do Davidp80 and Eshne. I’m not 100% raw either and I know if I feel like eating cooked food after or maybe during the cleanse, I will do it. Transition to 100% raw can take quite some time. Everyone has their own pace. I kno…

• Davidp80, I’ll sure try out swiss chard. It is such a neglected green but yet sooo delicious. I’ll allow myself some fruits during the cleanse. I bought Frederic Patenaude’s 21 best cleanse and if one felt like eating fresh fruits during the cleanse…

• But that’s a really good idea of straining the fruits through a mesh bag. I have a juicer but it can’t juice greens. Thank you Kristen!

  in Green smoothie fast? Comment by Nezumi
• I too is not really in the mood for juice feasting. Although I will try it one day. I want fibers! Lots of them right now, heehee! I just went to the market and stocked on kale, spinach, bananas, mangoes and lots of other yummy fruits. I plan on dr…

• I eat them from time to time. They taste good. I think smelling of maple syrup is kind of sexy! But then again, I am a Canadian, heehee!

  in Skin smelling like herbs?!? Comment by Nezumi
• Bingo! It’s the fenugreek that’s leaving your skin smelling like masala. Here’s an excerpt from wiki A side effect of consuming even small amounts of fenugreek (even as just an infusion in water) is a maple syrup or curry smell in the eater’s sweat…

• JoyceH from beautiful Vermont, to my knowledge, there’s no raw restaurant in Montreal. There use to be one but it closed. However, there’s a great raw catering called Crudessence. They also deliver lunch or you can pick it up. These guys have been a…

• Thanks for the support Marysia! I like your positive approach. I’ll give it a try and I’ll also try the avo-apple salad maybe with a warming curry dressing… I’m drooling!

• Thanks for the encouragement Sky Princess! I’m trying to find that balance that will make me feel good during transition. I have to try the epsom salt bath. I know I’ll make it to 100% but like Hollis said, baby steps! To help, I’ve made myself a…

  in Anyone shivering in Canada? Comment by Nezumi
• Wow! You’re all pretty inspiring! I am in Montreal and I have fell off the bandwagon big time lately. I was eating raw but I ate way too much nuts and fat and didn’t feel pretty good. The green smoothies didn’t help me control my cravings. I felt ob…

• Glad to see I’m not the only one splurging on cooked vegan food! I really like soba noodles, beans, cooked squash and sweet potato, peanut butter, whole wheat bread, dark chocolate, energy drinks (Guru) and coffee. It’s hard to resist the deliciou…

• jeshuabrown – I got really fizzy komnbucha when I bottled my tea. I took used bottles of kombucha which I cleaned and sterilized and poured my ready kombucha in. I stored them in the fridge for 5-7 days and the tea became really fizzy. Let me know …

• Ooh! I really liked that feature in Ani Phyo’s book when she wrote how much time the food will last in our fridge. I found it helpful in organizing a weekly menu.

  in What kind of recipe book would you like? Comment by Nezumi
• I’d like a book with a section for sweet treats with low glycemic fruits. There’s too much recipes with dates, raisins and nuts out there. BTW, I love your recipes and I can’t wait for your book Sweatpea!

• I use persimmons instead of bananas in my smoothies. I can’t stomach bananas. I’m not sure if persimmons contain less sugar than bananas but they make a creamy smoothie as well.

• Here’s the link to the seller’s store where I bought my Benriner on ebay: http://stores.ebay.com/Trend-Boutique-USA I bought the fruit and veg turning slicer. I’ve got the real deal!

• the Benriner I have makes angel hair pasta. I bought it on ebay for half the price I’ve found in stores and it was new. It was really worth it.
