• I'm really intrigued about trying a smoothie feast but just wondered if you'd done one before and if so, how did you feel whilst doing it and how long did you do it for? I like the idea but am the kind of person who has to eat very regularly otherwi…

• Haha! Yeah, I'll probably cave too at some point and buy one. Need to start saving and looking out for a good deal.

  in Do you use the whole fruit for a smoothie? Comment by sv3
• Well, I always peel and core my fruit when I'm making smoothies but I don't have a very powerful blender. If I had a vitamix I would prob just chuck it all in...dreaming of the day I can afford one. :-)

• That's really good daniefon, I wish I could balance things like that a bit better. I tend to struggle with this kind of thing and have realised that I've avoiding having people over for meals as much as possible since getting into raw. I've got a co…

• Hi mckenziepartyof5, I really recommend the carrot crackers on this site - they are amazing. (I would paste the link but last time I tried it didnt work! If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great?!)

• It's really strange seeing this topic pop up again! I'd totally forgottern I'd posted it and it's a really nice reminder to see how far I've come. I'm going home to my folks for Xmas and they know I'm vegan now so they won't be trying to feed my any…

  in Had a bit of a slip... Comment by sv3
• Thanks for all your helpful comments, I'm taking it all on board. I agree with you Zemphira about how bad negative/guilty thoughts are on the body and will definitely work on letting those unhelpful feeling go and being far more positive about the w…

• Thanks joannabanana, it's nice to know I'm not the only one. I too suffered after eating so much SAD food - my poor stomach wasn't happy! I guess the main thing is that I know it's a slip and I couldn't wait to get back to raw again, which is obviou…

• Oh wow, all of the above suggestions look amazing. I have to try these out. I now have far too many stacked up waiting for me to get around to!

  in Raw comfort food for SAD eaters Comment by sv3
• Well, I've found raw desserts are always an easy way to impress non raw friends/family. I've had success with the Apple Cobbler and Cinnamon Buns recipes on this site. If you're looking for a savory option, go for one of the cracker/bread recipes an…

• Hi Joyce, I shared the apple cobbler I made with my whole family yesterday and it went down very well. Was really nice to be able to share some raw food with them. I made such a big batch that there is some left over which I'll polish off tomorrow n…

  in Easter - What Are You Planning to Eat? Comment by sv3
• Well, I'm not 100% so when I go home to my folks I tend to have fruit for breakfast, salad for lunch and then eat a small cooked (veggie) meal with the family. As I'm only going back for a couple of days it's not that bad but my mum does tend to kee…

• The two books I really like are 'Raw Food Made Easy' by Jennifer Cornbleet and 'Ani's Raw Food Kitchen' by Ani Phyo. I've picked up so many great recipes from this site though, I'm not sure I'll buy any more raw books. I am interested in the 80/10/1…

• Think my co-workers are pretty used to my eating habits now but they do sometimes try to get a rise out of me. My boss will look at my lunch and ask...'so how do you get your protein/carbohydrates from 'that' then?' It almost bores me to tears now s…

• Carnap, I think it's great you are trying to help your friend but sometimes you can only do so much. I have tried (sometimes subtly and other times not so subtly!) to encourage friends/family with healthy eating and there are some who listen and tak…

• Hiya, I agree with formosa. When I started to eat raw I believed all the mock dishes would taste just like the sad equivilant - and it was quite a shock when they didnt. Now, I don't tend to make that much mock stuff. I have found a couple of good s…
