  • Thanks everyone! I really appreciate the support :) today when I went shopping I tried picking up new things: I got different apples, bok choy, and I found some raw chocolate coconut butter spread! Yum! I also made a new recipe carrot-pecan “burgers…
  • Thanks everyone :) I appreciate the feedback, I guess I need some new recipe suggestions, I see stuff that looks good to make but there are always so MANY ingredients that are a little out of my league or kitchen stuff I don’t have like a juicer or …
  • Thanks Pulse! I’m on day 11 and have been doing really good, I’ve been eating whole fruits and veggies as opposed to making up elaborate raw meals. I really like the simplicity of just eating fruit for breakfast, veggies for lunch maybe a sald for d…
  • I’m happy to report day 6 was great and 7 is starting off really really well!!
  • No, it was defintely the food! It happened too suddenly for me to just be sick,, plus I haven’t been sick since going vegan :) I feel a lot better now, but I’m defintely going to look into food combinning more, is there a goood link somewhere?
  • OK, got it! Melons+other foods = I get really sick! I never had any trouble eating melon with other food before, but I’m guessing things change when you are eating all raw! Thanks ladies! You’ve been a big help!!!
  • Thanks everyone! El-bo—yes! I really want to read the 8/1/1 i have it on order from the library and just waiting for it to come in! I totally use the cron-o-meter! I love it, but it does tend to trigger my ED a bit, and seeing how much fat i’m eat s…

  • I use parchment paper in my dehydrator too, but if you’re making a liquidy bread type recipe the paper can still sitick to it, I was pulling little pieces of paper off my onion bread all day to day! Good luck!
  • I’m the same way, it’s almost like I’ve lost my appitite, I just have no desire to eat, but what I do is yummy, raw and healthy :)
  • I count because…well…I’m a little obsessive about my numbers and also to make sure I get enough to eat, like today I’ve only eaten 55% of what I should have (1200/2200) and I couldn’t imagine eating one more bite of food today (it will be bed time i…

  • I just started using the cron-o-meter! it’s pretty sweet to count your calories with!! http://spaz.ca/cronometer/ Someone else on here posted it (sorry, I don’t remember their name) and it has been a big help already!!

  • It seems crazy to think people would conisider you bourgeois just because you want to eat fresh apples, bananas, veggies, etc…so crazy, it’s like when you give up meat and dairy, people think you are out of your mind for not wanting to pollute your …

  • I just bought my first set of “raw groceries” (today is my official first day of being raw) and I spent $120 getting stocked up and that did not include the cost of my dehydrator and some utensils. Anywho, I did get a ton of fruits, veggies, nuts an…

  • What about carob?
  • I’m trying out foil with a bit of olive oil right now for some oatgroats I’m dying and it is working good for that—but I don’t know if liquid-ey things would come out well or not.
  • Yeah…the wax paper did not work out at all! It fused itself to my tortillia chips—which were actually pretty yummy from what I could taste… I’m a little scared to try parchment paper now, isn’t it practally the same thing as wax paper? What about fo…
  • Thanks everyone! I really appreciate your help. I am still very exited about my raw adventure, but it is starting to feel a little daunting and overwhelming…but now that I think about it, when I first went vegan it was hard too. Seems like nothing w…
  • OK—so I can find raw brown rice, frozen vegetables are never raw…waht about frozen or canned fruit? Raw or not? And about the beans—so I by any kind of bean dry, throw it in a glass jar with water and when it “sprouts” there ready to be used? So for…
  • If rice isn’t raw why do I keep seeing recipies for wild rice in “The Complete book of Raw Food” ? this is very frustrating…blerg Someone needs to write the difintive guid on raw with what is and what isn’t raw… :( Thanks for the help—I’ll cross ric…
  • Oh! Tank you for the cron-o-meter link! I’m starting my 30 day raw tomorrow and this will come in handy! I’m also really interested in the 8/1/1, but I have yet to read the book, I’m waiting for a copy to come into my library! Good luck everyone, yo…
  • Thanks Carm! I actually did end up picking up a dehydrator because I found one on clearence for $17! it’s not a good one by any standard and slow as hell..but I think it will get me through a few months at least :) I’ll try playing with my oven thou…

  • Hi msrawdiva! Yea! I’ll just pretend I converted you to my august raw even though I’m guessing you’ve been raw for awhile! lol Thanks for the welcome!!!
  • Thank guys—I’m adding nylons to my shopping list :)
    in Raw Milks Comment by Capture
  • Thanks LS2F-that’s good info about the soy milk-I really had no idea! I will defintely look for some nut milk recipes and start tying them to see what I like—I pretty much only use “milk” for morning cereal and baking vegan treats so I can probably …
