• You should see me with hair! :-p That pic is from May. One of these days I’ll update my avatar. (thanks – I’m highly susceptable to flattery)

• Hey… ...I ran into the same type of thing with my weight, after fasting and eating raw for awhile. As in, I kept wanting to lose more weight, just to fit an image of what my body should look like. In my case it was nonacceptance of what is, and wasn…

• I get really discouraged hearing about how plastic leeches into water. I drink spring water, and it’s always from a plastic bottle. I wish there was a way to circumnavigate the plastic… I simply don’t trust the tap water at all. My town has notoriou…

• Hey – I remember I used to feel full after 2 bananas, when I first went raw. Now (because I am also following 811) almost six months later, I can get 7 in there, pretty comfortably! My stomach is slowly regaining its natural elasticity, which makes …

• Hey guys! I tallied up what I ate yesterday, and it came to 1600 calories! Wow! I thought I was eating a lot, so I thought it would be more then that. Can anyone recommend how many calories I should be getting in a day? I do moderate exercise everyd…

• Guess I might as well share my own experience. Well, basically, I’ve 100% raw for months now. And yes, I truly have been, aside from a two-week stint with cacao, the only questionable raw thing I’ve eaten in all this time. I’ve read every bit of inf…

• THANK YOU chilove! I seriously have been looking for a dressing that doesn’t use oil and has a yummy taste, since I have to force myself to eat greens. (really just don’t naturally care for them, even though I crave them sometimes – love my fruit!) …

• Yeah, I can’t wait to order the book. The whole 80-10-10 thing is a huge source of relief for me, because it seems like I was naturally gravitating towards this style of raw eating, and then I find out someone has written a book and guidelines on ho…

• Well, my cacao addiction had to go; just too wearing on my body. Sounds like raw carob is the way to do things; thanks for the link!

  in CAROB Comment by MOTH
• Izhpt: I appreciate the wisdom you bring to the table. I have just now started to understand myself WHY fruit seems to work best for my energy. I am an “air sign” (Aquarius), but I don’t know what this equals out to, dosha-wise. I just notice too ma…

• el-bo - I don’t eat gourmet raw at all, and never have really. What feels best for me is just simple eating; just eating fruits as they are, not blending flavors and mixing much. The only mixed thing I’ve been eating lately is a cacao pudding of ban…

• I feel GREAT on mostly fruit. I believe I could enjoy the 80-10-10 diet.

• My Whole Foods (I work there) had them for about two weeks awhile back, but they sold out, and have not ordered more! I wonder if I could get the produce manager to order them again…I would buy a case of them for myself!

  in Bananas: Simple Question Comment by MOTH
• Cool, I’m interested to see how much stuff comes in a case. I eat all organic produce except for mangos; I just love them so much! But I would love to have organic mangos, for a decent price.

  in Bananas: Simple Question Comment by MOTH
• roadrunner – does the organic fruit automatically come by the case? For instance: Organic Mango Price: $12.15 Code: QP266 Size: approx 9 lb Shipping Weight: 10 lbs. How many mangos would that include?

  in Bananas: Simple Question Comment by MOTH
• I eat anywhere from 3-7 bananas a day, depending on what else I’ve consumed.

  in Bananas: Simple Question Comment by MOTH
• I don’t think you reallly need one. I have one, but hardly use it. I prefer to eat high-water content food, since that digests easier for me. Honestly, most food I dehydrate ends up in the trash. Some people use their quite often, so I read.

  in Do I reeeeally need a dehydrator?? Comment by MOTH
• The EXACT same symptoms occur to me as well. I have even gotten a terrible agonizing swollen and sore throat from eating nuts. They just are not good for my body. If they make him suffer, I recommend he avoids them. I’m the same way; I love the tast…

  in Nut-free people: can you handle seeds? Comment by MOTH
• YES, exactly: SEVERE constipation is what I am experiencing right now and OWIE, I just wanna go poo. heh… :-p All bloated and heavy feeling inside. Not to mention seeds seem to make me SEDATED. Where’s my energy? I also prefer mostly fruit, but I’ve…

  in Nut-free people: can you handle seeds? Comment by MOTH
• I only bring it up if necessary…like if someone is trying to shove cookies in my face, “try one! try one!” then I make a point to tell them. Otherwise, I just keep quiet about it these days, unless asked. I found out that some people act really weir…

  in out of the closet (or pantry?) Comment by MOTH
• I still binge on raw. Makes me feel a little sad sometimes. I was caught up in a binging/restricting cycle for awhile, but restricting food messes up my energy, so I am just trying to find a way through it without being harsh on myself.

• Yeah, I just use dates to sweeten stuff.

  in Gone Raw Recipes including honey? Comment by MOTH
• I don’t own one, but I’ve used my friends. I love that little thing. I eat most of my food whole so I don’t do smoothies, but sometimes I want some date syrup or a sauce and that thing is PERFECT for it. It quite frankly is just FUN to use! :-). Lov…

  in Storm and Jinjee documentary 'Breakthrough' Comment by MOTH
• Great job Elizabethh! You are an inspiration! A friends mom recently completed the MC and she was absolutely buzzing with energy at the end! My question is: Could you use date syrup instead of maple syrup for the same effect?

  in 10 day master cleanse Comment by MOTH
• Yes, it definitely put me in a better place. I still feel the discomfort of my detox happening, but I’m not as emotionally distraught about it. :-)

• The site crashed while I was posting this and now there’s three of this post. Oh well.

  in My first encounter with raw cacao Comment by MOTH
• Thanks for the tips! I want to get the straight cacao beans next time and see if I can use them to great effect. ;-)
