  • I think that the majority of the people on here started right where you are Mazzie. It's an extremely challenging task to just start into a raw diet so like superfood pointed out, it depends on what your diet consists of now. I became a vegetarian 2…
  • Thanks for the tip Swayze!

  • Glad I found this post. I've transitioned into a more strict raw diet in the last week and from reading this, I think the odor is just caused by toxins being released. I use the Kiss My Face Lavender rock roll thing and it works for about a half an …

  • Tabby- I had the same issue when I first jumped into it. I read either in his book or on the website that you are supposed to transition into using an entire packet but you should start with just half until your body adjusts. That's what I had been …

  • megan- I completely feel for you! It's like identical to my situation, minus the health problem. My husband and I got lectured the other day because we are moving to Hawaii and not having children for a while, I'm only 25, and she said that was irre…
  • lulushka8- I am sorry to hear you are being pushed out of your own house! The pig thing would have freaked me out too. Have you told your sister how it's making you feel? She might be able to talk to him and explain that maybe he should be a bit mor…
  • Thanks so much for all of your support you guys! It means a lot to me. I ended up calling my parents and they said the same thing. That I am the bigger person and the best way to get back at her would to be to not feed into her games, to just think …
  • Thanks for all of your input guys! I am keeping track of a lot of things in a journal and trying to make myself choose better options with out having to think about them. All the little things help!
  • Thanks gemninja, I had a talk with my mom about the H1N1 virus as well and how people are making a big deal over it but that it's just as easy to get as the regular old flu. I don't think I will get the shot regardless just because I have a pretty h…
  • RawKaren- Thanks for the advice with the tea. I unfortunately fell victim to the coffee over the weekend but I am starting a new tomorrow. I have some roobios tea that I am going to try. I think what draws me is the hot beverage in the morning, like…
  • Yea today I had a cup of coffee... but I waited until the afternoon which is a huge step for me. I gave in because my mother-in-law asked me to drive her around ( she doesn't drive) and it can be very diffucult dealing with her. She kept asking me w…
  • Dianthus! Way to be positive today! I wish I could say the same for me... my husband graduated today and I ate a doughnut... BUT today is the first day in years that I shunned a cup of coffee! So I look at is as baby steps. Suasoria made a good poin…
  • I agree with Joanna and tukiville- there is no secret food or drug to banish fat! I HATE those ads and commercials and it's so sad because you know people waste money on them! Love your body and embrace what you have. It's going to take time and it …
  • AVL- Thanks for the info! I will put it on my "to buy" list:)

  • AVL- Where did you order it from and if you don't mind asking, how much did you pay?

  • Lovin- Try switching your water for coconut water. It hydrates your body a lot better.
    in Ugh, headaches... Comment by KMcR
  • Lovin- First off, I noticed your name and for some reason I thought, "I wonder if she's from Washington" ( because everyone is loving the sun there right now!) and sure enough, I was right:) I grew up in Kirkland! I too have suffered from migraines …

  • Thanks for the post! I'm taking it to the gym with me today:)
  • I think that if you use it in moderation you should be fine. Unfermented agave is a slow- release carb which you body can feed off of for longer. I wouldn't pour it over things like syurp, but using a teaspoon or two is better than loading something…

  • Troubles- I think that people make fun because they don't understand. I too use to work in an office and before I was even vegan or raw, I use to drink Odwalla's Super Food and leave a jug of it in the fridge. I had a co-worker give me "the look" be…

  • I grew up eating decent meals. My mom cooked every night, spaghetti, chicken, meatloaf, tacos, etc and we always had salad or veggies. We ate chips and drank soda with lunches. I wouldn't say I was fat, but I was chunky in school. I played soccer fo…
  • Mikfizzle- It was usually $15 for a drop in class but they give you a break in price if you buy them in like a 10 pack. I know my studio did $120 for unlimited classes in a month which was awesome! They usually are decently priced. I think you are r…
  • Mikfizzle- I did a search in your area and I did find this list of possible yoga places but I am not sure how far you want to go or what is close to you. http://www.yogacabana.com/yoga.b.507.g.35.html Also, hot yoga is practicing in a room thats hea…
  • mikfizzle- I haven't done many dvd's for exercise as I am one of those people who finds something else to do in the house other than exercise. The only dvd I have purchased and liked was actually Windsor Pilates. It's really easy to follow and you c…
  • AVL- I just realized you are in Ontario. I am currently living in Belleville, couple hours east of you:)
  • AVL, I have noticed my increased amounts of bell peppers and cucumber are making me feel 'heavy' because they are loaded with water themselves. I know I also feel that way right around the time I am going to get my period too which is extra annoying…
  • AVL, I have been there and felt the same way! I think you are right in just letting it be and waiting for tomorrow. I did the same thing last night and I had the WORST stomach ache and I just felt gross. When I got up this morning, I remembered how …
  • There's truth to both those arguments. You have to think that your body needs certain types of foods to absorb vitamins and make enzymes needed for proper nutrition. You shouldn't really need to count calories if you are eating a raw diet because yo…
  • I love lush too although sometimes the smell in the store is overwhelming! I REALLY love the Godiva solid shampoo and the Jungle solid conditioner. My hair smells so good all the time. Really fresh. I got my husband the anti-dandruff solid, Sink and…

  • Abbie! First off, asking for help is the right step because it says you really want to make this work. There are tons of great ideas from other people here too. I USE to eat all junk too, meat, chips, ice cream, etc. because my ex-boyfriend ate all …
