• I’ve also been considering taking a “nut fast” as I’ve decided to call it, although technically it’s the opposite. I eat nuts all day (a get a LOT of other fruits and veggies, too though), and I go through about a pound of homemade PB in a week (I k…

• Before: macaroni & cheese, chicken nuggets (gag), burgers, coke. After: SPINACH!!!! Bananas, strawberries, green smoothies, nuts and seeds of ANY kind! Sometimes I do have a ‘weekly’ favorite raw food tho, like this week it’s been avocados. Whic…

• Aha me too! I loved my granola (although I made my own – it was still toasted at HIGH temps), but I don’t have a dehydrator yet, either! Right now I’m just mixing up some nuts and pretending it’s granola but it’s not the same…

• *Oh man, I know how you feel. My family thinks I’m crazy for not eating processed foods, they don’t even know that I’m wanting to go raw (they’re partially the reason I’m not 100% raw). Like last night, they made this fish, and I usually don’t mind …

• *Hey, just thought I’d update real quick. After a piece bread with my raw salad at lunch yesterday, I’ve been 100% raw and am planning to be that way at least all day today. I unfortunately skipped dinner last night because of a tornado/hail storm t…

• Oh yeah, hey that’s another thing. I only eat organic peanut butter that is freshly ground in front of me – non of that cr*p with hydrogenated whatchamacallit. Is it still un-raw? lol

• Thanks for all the advice guys, this should help me alot. For a while I was a little nervous about going more than about 50% raw (that’s prolly about what I’m at now – minus my breads/coffee issue lol), but since I’ve been poking around all the foru…

• OMG I did NOT know that figs are blanched – or about the pistachios or Peanut butter!!! Sad… what about almond butter? I’ve seen that used a lot here and I really like it, should I use it instead? I know my raisins are just raisins – I’ve checked th…

• Oh, I should mention (shamefully, I admit) that I have had a cup of coffee today. :( Unfortunately I think coffee is my ultimate downfall – although I’ve been trying to limit my coffee to just a 2-3 days (or less) a week, and instead I do green tea/…

• I had wondered if anyone else had thought about this like I had. I’m not 100% raw yet, but I began in August-ish of last year cutting out all processed foods, all refined sugar (I even try not to use too much honey), and I stuck with just fruit/frui…

• *Yay! I had my first green smoothie today (after blending last night before bed). I used lapetitemort’s Yummy Green Smoothie . I just put it in a cup with a lid, stored it in the coldest part of my fridge, shook it up, and drank it on my way to work…

• Ooh yay! I have this problem, too (waking ppl with the blender), and I’ve really wanted to start having green smoothies for breakfast. I just thought that by morning they’d be nasty gooey or something. How fun! lol.

• I have never heard that fruit could cause diabetes before? I think if you want to eat sugar get it from fruit instead of elsewhere! Some days I only eat fruit and I don’t have high blood sugar levels (I just had some bloodwork done). Although dried …

• So far the only things I have found are Larabars – but OMG YUM!!!!! I don’t know if On Track’s Fig Raisin Bar is raw (I think it is) but it’s Delummy… very similar to larabars.
