• Hey girl, Heyenglish! I’m actually feeling pretty confused with my body right now; not sure what’s going on. I feel hungry, but am having a hard time eating much. Even my favorite fruits don’t seem tempting. Greens just don’t hit me well at all -mak…

• Have a great time, girl! I’m going out to the Organic Garden (raw vegan restaurant in Beverly) on Wednesday with a friend, and their fare definitely isn’t 811…but I’ve already decided not to limit myself. Special occasion! :-) Today was rough for me…

• I have a few pimples on my nose and I NEVER get them there, so yay, ha, I FEEL YOU! I’ve been applying tea-tree oil (might want to dilute if too harsh- this stuff can really damage your skin if you’re not careful) nightly to the areas and it dries t…

• hey nycgrrl! Thanks again for restarting up the 811 thread. I’m focusing most of my eating attention on mono-mealing. Today is a watermelon day! I was thinking that the hot yoga might be suppressing my appetite. I have been tasting ketones and detox…

• GO FOR IT! I’m doing this intense vinyasa hot yoga everyday now for an hour and a half, plus lots of biking. So I’ve been pretty hungry lately, but I don’t have as much of an appetite. I’m finding it hard to keep my calories up, but I need my energy…

• Beautiful post. Well-said and thank you. ::::heart:::: (p.s….I am queer too. I didn’t know what it was called; I thought I had to be either gay or straight, and couldn’t feel comfortable with any of those labels. Not that I needed a label, but they …

• Thank you…shaving my head was like being re-born into a new body. I’d always had very long, curly feminine tresses…shaving it all off made me feel closer to how I view myself internally. Now my hair is growing out; still really short but long enough…

• TheRawDance – needless to say, your loving openness with which you communicate inspires me – makes me want to do the same. I love how you pour your heart out. It’s just plain awesome. Just had to say it again, hehe. :-D

• You’re truly filled with light, openness and love…it radiates from your posts, from your heart. Have a lovely evening! I’m off to dream for the night. :-)

• Thanks, I know that’s a lot to take in, LOL. But seriously…I’ve come a long way.

• Hmm…I do not have a eating disorder, but I do have a history with disordered eating and am a recovering self-injurer, and while this thread is about “eating” disorders, I am quite familiar with disorder in general and desire to share, because my pas…

• I’ll be trying durian for the first time in a few weeks. I’m pretty excited but I don’t expect to like it, haha! I’ve never tried a chermoya before!

• Fruit meditation – I love that..LOL.

• I can’t find organic ones either. But I like to think that because they grow so far off the ground there is not much cause to spray them with any poisons. Also, the peel is pretty thick…another reassurance. Tonight I had some corn cut fresh from the…

  in Share Your Feel Good Meals!!! Comment by MOTH
• Yep, MANGOs do it for me. I actually read online that there is a chemical enzyme in them that creates a lift in mood. I love eating them in the morning; breakfast of champions! Coconut water is another “feel good” thing for me. And so are ripe juicy…

• I had a lot of raw corn and tomatoes.

• You look so beautiful, Izhpt! I never would have guessed you at 45. You look like you’re in your early thirties.

• Izhpt: “Moth-thanks for helping me see the “goal” as that’s how my brain operates.” No problem; I’m an Aquarius, and I certainly don’t mind elaborating, hehe.:-)

• For me and my body…I enjoy cleansing at different levels. I figure that I abused my body so savagely over the years that I can use it. Also I don’t view a lot of how I eat as restriction; it’s more like liberation. I am low-fat because fat makes my …

• I feed my dog (a shepherd/collie mix) and my three cats all raw. Icarus (the dog) is my baby though and seeing how his health improved actually inspired me to go raw myself. He usually gets chicken, beef or pork, but I have a feeling he would love i…

• I don’t get it. I am so hungry, but fruit isn’t appealing to me right now. :-/ I seem to shift extremes pretty quickly. I wandered around all the produce at the store for an hour, just waiting for some delicious fruit to call out to me. But the thou…

• I would definitely listen to your body. YOU’RE living in your body; not him. I bet you’re bloated and breaking out because you’re returning to a raw diet from SAD – not because you’re eating fruit. I have periods of time where I eat only fruit and h…

• Hey Azul! Glad to see you’re enjoying this too. I was fruitarian, mono-mealing for several days, totally feeling my vital energy, and then tonight, I decided to eat a bowl of greens. What a mistake! I am so nauseous, headachy and sick right now. I f…

• Pulse – no problems with my teeth, although I am not always 100% fruit yet. FRUITARIANS: How do you handle b12? I am getting negative feedback from people already skeptical of raw who flat out are telling me that I will get brain disorders from lack…

• Yeah…but Boston is fabulous to visit if you’re ever up for a trip. ;-p And seriously, if I’m ever in your neck of the woods, I will let you know. I think it’d be fun to hang out with other fruitarians! 2 fruits a day I can do. It’s just the transiti…
