• Never having dreads before…what happens when you want to take them out? I have long wavy hair (and too much vanity) :) to want to shave it off. Is it possible to comb them out?

• Day 4- What an amazing experience this is. I had less cravings for naughty food yesterday, and actually found myself craving fruit. Amazing…I’m also down 7 pounds (I know I shouldn’t weigh myself, but it’s fun!) I found an old juicing book I had by …

• Whoo-hoo…lots of good stuff. My reading on fasting lead me to believe that light juice fasting was the best way to go, with the odd day of water fasting. That way you are providing living enzymes to your cells, but still giving your digestion a well…

• After re-reading my post, maybe I should clarify “lots of water”. During the day I have 3 cups of herbal tea, and 3 glasses of fruit or vegetable juice diluted with water (so that it’s almost half of each). During the time I want to water fast only,…

• Unfortunately I don’t live there, but absolutely loved Brisbane when I visited (except for those giant spiders…). How lucky to live in such a beautiful place (and as zoe mentionned, all that great fruit). If I wasn’t so far away (Canada) it would be…

• doubleD, my boys are 16 months apart (I was pretty much pregnant and/or nursing for 3 years) and even though it was hard work I wouldn’t change a thing. My boys are 20 months and almost 3, and things have gotten a lot easier. Best of luck to you- an…

• You’ll have to try the taco meat recipe posted here. I could live off of it- never get sick of it. Spread it on dried nori or boston lettuce, top with all sorts of veggies and roll up….it’s really good and walnuts are cheap. There are other roll up …

• I think it’s important to remember that most people say something because they are truly concerned- not because they are trying to be malicious. I had a difficult time with my last pregnancy- very low iron and, despite all efforts to get my levels b…

• It was my understanding that mother nature takes care of what should be in your milk if you are eating a healthy diet and that supplements aren’t needed. I started going raw a few weeks before I stopped nursing (my baby was almost 15 months old) and…

• Oh gosh… Chris…that last posting was hilarious. To admit you did that takes a lot of guts- thanks, I had a great laugh. Every time I read one of your posts now- I’m never going to be able to get that mental picture out of my head!

• I’m no help with the detoxing bit…but when I truly focus on eating raw, I find I dream a lot about eating raw. I find the dreams are quite vivid (all of them) and I remember a lot of it as well. I really enjoy the feeling of waking up light and clea…

• I love turnips straight up. I like to chop them up, keep them in the frigde, and snack on them like carrot sticks. Turnips are also good grated, put in a pile along with grated carrots, beets, sweet potatoes (all seperate piles), then drizzled with …

• Kira- I’ve heard marvelous things about skin brushing on previous posts. I plan to go get a proper brush today. Besides helping remove toxins, it’s supposed to make your skin super smooth.

• Hi Debbie, That’s what I love about this site too. I have plenty of days when I fall off the raw wagon, but I always come back to it, and I never feel guilty. I guess because I don’t look at this like a diet, but as a way of life. Even though I can’…

• I did try a canary melon…quite sweet and not as musky as honeydew or cantalope (sp?). Hubby enjoyed it too, and it’s hard for me to get him to eat fruit in the morning. He’ll usually takes some on his way out the door. It’s bright yellow, cheap when…

• I did find this link for making a dehydrator. My DH is quite handy (and bragging he can make a better one) so I thought I’d give this a try before shelling out mega-bucks and buying one. http://www.k-clements.fsnet.co.uk/dehydrator.html

• I checked out the site- it’s great to have resources to close!( I still go into Ottawa once every couple of weeks). Thanks for the info- I’m sure I’ll have questions for you soon!

• From what I understand about B-12, and problems I had with it years ago- doesn’t the body recycle it? Is there anything I can eat to help it- or does it require supplementation? I’m so glad you guys are here to help with all of this :)
