  • Anna- I am in the same boat, girl! I'm not in the dorms again this year but I'm in an apartment with 6 roommates so it kind of feels like the same thing. I am as well trying to stay as raw as I can without telling people (they found it weird enough …

  • The lowest my oven goes to is 200 degrees and then there's a setting below that "WM" which I have no idea what that means... I am a corn chip and salsa fiend so that is a good idea...I was just thinking that maybe there was some sort of recipe where…

  • I saw this thread and decided to look up what it said about me (A blood type): "But it is particularly important for sensitive Type As to eat their foods in as natural a state as possible: pure, fresh and organic." Haha looks like I came to the righ…
  • Ahhh Halloween. One of my favorite holidays!! Hey if anyone has costume suggestions for me, I would appreciate it! I have 6 roommates (so 7 of us total) and we’re all girls. Does anyone have any theme ideas (movies, TV shows, stuff that comes in gro…

  • Yay I’m excited too! I love fall-season farmer’s market food! Mmmmmm. And this is the best time for apple picking!
  • Haha “Ungrateful” don’t worry, it’s good to have some devil’s advocate viewpoints. I myself finished a 10 day master cleanse earlier this month as a transition into a vegan lifestyle and had amazing results. I did question myself multiple times, how…

  • I don’t follow a strict no-salt diet but I don’t like it and I hardly ever use it. If you are interested in trying it but feel your food is too bland without it, try other spices to liven it up. Use onions and garlic as well as peppers and herbs. Ch…

  • Haha gross!! That makes me so happy that I don’t eat that stuff!
  • Thank you guys so much! This will make my vegetarian to vegan to raw transition so much easier!

  • LAST DAY LAST DAY!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so ready to be done and not ready like "I'm going to eat everything in sight" but ready like I'm ready for my new and improved high-raw life to start :) Oola- just keep truckin! Or maybe try a different kind of cle…
  • graceer1- Yayyy!!!!! I'm excited for you! Good luck, you will do so great! Well I'm finishing up day SEVEN! Woot woot! Only three days left! Ohhhhh man I'm excited for a big ol' salad and a green smoothie!!  
  • Oola- Sounds like you have the right mindset :) Just think about how you're going to feel after you've accomplished 10 days on the Master Cleanse!! That's what I do when I feel like "Oh I'll just have a bite of that..." I know that that one little i…
  • Halfway done! Anyone else still hanging in there?  
  • graceer1- That's a toughie. What do your medications say? If it says to take with food, I would re-consider a Master Cleanse because the medication might hurt your stomach. How are you doing on raw though? Have you been trying for awhile or are you …
  • La Ensalada- That's a good question. I would loooove to do that too (maple syrup in lemonade plus cayenne is not my favorite concoction in the world...gotta say). I found this just on a forum thing: Is it ok to chug the cayenne separately with lemo…
  • Eszter- I'm so sorry that happened! Last night on my first day I couldn't finish my entire water bottle of lemonade because my stomach was getting mad at me. So I stopped, drank some water, and went to bed...for almost 12 hours. I woke up today feel…
  • How's everyone doing? It's exciting that so many of us are cleansing at the same time :) Day one (today) went pretty well. I had a bit of a headache but mostly I am excited of what this cleanse will bring!  
  • bAlance- I'm glad you're easing yourself into the MC with green smoothies, it's so easy to indulge in your last week before the cleanse but easing in will make those first couple days so much easier! Woo!!! 3 more days!!!! rAWnglish teecher- That's …
  • bAlance- Okay yay!! It's so motivating to do the MC with someone else, especially during those first couple days :) I'll be posting my progress to my blog but if anyone wants to email me too my email is: theangelgurl@hotmail.com (
  • I did a 10 day MC this past September and I tried the salt water flushed one day...almost puked...and then it did absolutely nothing. So after that I would just drink a LOT of water in the morning before anything else and that definitely got things …
  • Nicole- That's so great! It's good to know someone would be doing it around the same time as me :) How long do you think you're going to aim for? But yeah definitely keep me posted on how it's going for you once you start! Good luck!  
  • I'm considering starting a 10-ish day MC July 10th if anyone wants to start with me then (it takes some planning/mental preparation so it's good to plan ahead) :)  
  • I just finished a 10 day Master Cleanse on Tuesday as a way to transition myself into a vegan lifestyle…I’ll probably do another one in a couple years as a way to transition into a raw lifestyle. If you’re truly doing it for the right reasons-to rid…
  • I know at least five vegetarians but I can't think of any other vegans, let alone raw foodists, in the disgustingly cheese and brat-filled state of Wisconsin (yuck!). Of course I am not raw myself...just collecting information before I dive into it …

    in How old are you? Comment by iluvlife
  • So then is it still considered RAW to drink herbal teas with HOT water?? I'm confused...I mean tea isn't a food per say so is that the exception to the rule? Also...say I do want my food slightly warmed but not hot enough to not be considered RAW? H…

  • Hi everyone! I’m 20 years old, I’m a student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I’ve been a vegetarian for a year now and I’m looking to go for a healthier lifestyle. I really want to try to go vegan but I don’t I won’t be able to truly go vega…
