  • Juicing greens and taking htem out of a blender are so different! The difference in consistency really surprised me. I hope you get a juicer too! They are lots of fun, although take some practice to get used to.
  • Your body does what it does for a reason. There is NO reason to beat yourself up about it. I'm recently getting into juicing and very excited about that... It may help you get in your greens. Best wishes for you and your child!
  • Darn partners loving SAD food! Darnit all! I need a dehydrator so I can tempt him over to the raw side....
  • Add don't subtract. Add a salad, add a fruit. Your body will naturally come to want nutrient dense food. Bananas, Avocados, Cantalope, Salads, Apples, will carry you through your first few days. Once you tried it it's like I couldn't get enough! I'm…
  • Do it to it Derryckl! You rock! Let me know what your favorite sprouts are if you have the chance. Spread the love. Sincerely, Z
  • No stool analysis. I started drinking wheatgrass and for some reason prunes work 1,000 times better than any of the other million things I've tried. Who'da thought... Sorry its totally gross but the last year of my life was almost ruined by my diges…
  • hun, if the answer was to eat lots of greens and fruits my problem would have subsided 6 months ago.
  • I'm not sure, but I have heard a dietitian say complex carbs are not essential for optimal nutrition. Maybe sprouted whole grains? Good luck!

  • I quit smoking bye drinking liquid goji juice and then getting teeth surgery. They said it wouldn't heal if I smoked within 2 weeks, so I took the opportunity to quit. I am so grateful I did!
  • I have no experience with this, but I was thinking of buying a juicer soon. What kind did you get?
  • So I've been raw 6 months and have had really bad constipation since I first went vegan about a year ago. Maybe it is detox. I am going to start juicing, and I have already tried colonics, but it's really bad! Does anybody have any experience with t…
  • I would pull yourself together so you can live the life you want to live. All this bad mojo with the eating disorder will ruin any chance you have at having a happy life. Pull it together, girl. I did.
  • This is hilarious! Thanks for posting it!
  • There is a Whole Foods there, and if I remember it wasn’t too hard to get to. Maybe a 5 minute taxi ride from Times square.
  • Kendra- It’s taken me 6 months to get to a place where I actually would rather not eat cooked food, and I no longer drool over restaurants when I’m driving bye :) It probably has to do with the level of detox, and also feeling like crap whenever I e…
  • I am really happy this got so many replies! It feels wonderful to have so much support. I will not eat meat, as I’ve been vegetarian on and off since I was about 8. I am well versed at turning down meat. I will have to try and stay vegan, because I …
  • For someone who becomes very deeply involved in spirituality, it is very important they feel supported, not just tolerated. I am having difficulty w. my non-raw boyfriend. I feel kind of lonely with respect to cooking (or lack or it), and I also fee…
  • I actually agree with durianrider on this one! Haha! I never read the book, but I follow it rather closely. Also, what I do is invest in a high quality fiber from Dr. Natura (the one that’s 30 dollars lasts about 2 months when it’s just supposed to …
  • Wailingwoman, durianrider has some abusive tendencies. He pretty much has yet to make a post that is not outrageously offensive to somebody. Sorry he’s not being supportive, but I wouldn’t wait around for him to be positive! Blessings to you :)
  • ungrateful, I’m not sure… my day tends to be at such breakneck speeds I let myself use spices (like agave, salt and vinegar). That is something to work on I suppose (the issue of balance). It’s a great garlic substitute. I don’t use garlic because I…
  • Try cantaloupes for breakfast. And new spices (like ginger! and agave! and asafoetida! mix em together with banana and spinach!) You won’t be bored if you eat intuitively. Intuition is divine :)
  • sprouted beans seem to have a lot of protein. and are pretty yummy. give me gas when i eat too much tho... ughhhhhh
  • I think it's not really raw. Raw chad obviously works for that company anyways ;)
  • girl, suck it up. beggers can’t be choosers. we don’t have time for fearful people on this earth. get over it.
  • Coming to Vancouver the 21st. Are you there?
  • I almost died when I read about your pineapplebutter sauce served over mung beans and peppers. I don’t buy nutbutters. Maybe sometime soon. I should see if there are any good recipes on here. (I’m cash poor as they say).
  • Once I discovered 811 it took about a week for me to get on the wagon, and since then I haven’t really gotten off! I haven’t had any slip ups in at least 2 weeks… which is actually a long time for me. And I seem to be going strong… Breakfast for me …

  • It took me 1.5 months of mostly raw to get my energy back after detoxing but it is TOTALLY WORTH IT! I feel like I’m high on drugs I feel soo good most of the time… In 6 months I no longer crave cooked food and am maybe still detoxing a bit because …

  • If you want to cure Candida cut out fats for 2 weeks. I had Candida for years, and I did that. I slipped up a couple times so it just took longer. But I feel like a whole new me! The reason is the fat makes it harder for your body to process sugar, …
  • Do you eat a lot of fats? If so- try and cut down. That’s all I can think of… Your body is a perfect system and as long as you put the right things in, you should maintain an ideal weight.
