• i’m so happy you are considering giving this a try! i think you will be amazed how fast things can change. i don’t know if you work, but i would reccommend taking at least 5 or 6 days off when you first start if you are going for close to 100% raw.…

• thank you for that, you are totally right, i’m peeling back the layers. patience has never been my best quality! you must have read my post before i edited it, i was worried that what i was saying might come off as insulting, but then decided to ju…

• i’ve had tremendous progress. i guess i feel that as far as insulin intake, the progress was amazing at first, everyday i took less and less, and the progress seemed to halt and reverse,even though i was actually eating less and losing weight. it se…

• haha! i don’t eat them everyday! i do eat alot of fruit, but mostly low glycemic. i usually juice one orange a day, but it doesn’t spike my blood sugar that much. i don’t think you guys realize how severe my case is, if i ate a sandwich, baked brea…

• i posted on the american diabetes association forum about the raw diet, and it got deleted because they said it sounded too much like a solicitation for cure!! i was just trying to spread the word about how well i have done, in hopes that even one p…

• i mentioned that my onset of juvenile diabetes was at age 32, but i forgot to mention that statistically it is on the rise for my age group. this was unheard of a couple decades ago, hence why it is called juvenile diabetes, it used to exclusively f…

• i think you have to have the disease in order to understand how extremely hopeless it feels. also the fact that out of the whole world there is only one person that has been able to live without insulin. (sergei) if it were type 2 diabetes there wo…

• deborahann, did the pritikin diet cure type 2 diabetes, or type 1 ? there is a HUGE difference in the two. i doubt there will be a day when i won’t be insulin dependent, but i am certain i can reduce my intake considerably, because i already have, b…

• thanks for that, yes, this is the study i was talking about. this could be a whole other thread. the thing is, it sounds like a real breakthough, but i’m not getting my hopes up. pharm. companies make waaaay tooo much money off us diabetics and i b…

• justagirl, i know all about hypoglycemia, since i inject insulin all day long, it is a part of my daily life, especially since i try to keep tight control of my blood glucose levels. i’ve tested myself and been in the teens ( 0 being dead or comato…

• shane, yes i need more greens in my diet. i hate green smoothies!! the most i can stomach is a small spinach salad a day,or a small portion of sea vegetables but most days i don’t even do that. i was thinking about taking chlorella supplements. vega…

• i’ve got type 1 diabetes, the chances of me going off insulin completely are slim to none. i think thats what gets me down, that it is basically incurable. i only know of one person that has type 1 and is not taking insulin, sergei boutenko. still i…

• wow, i think the food prep is really easy! i do strive to be 100%, i would like to try it for at least 4 months. i’m not saying everyone is like this, but i really have a cooked food addiction. the longer i am close to 100% the less i crave startch…

  in Why are you not 100% raw? Comment by stylistchick
• i think this is a good topic, and i like your take on things. i have been very close to 100% raw for almost 5 months now. the easy answer for why i’m not 100% is addiction, i just haven’t been able to completely give up coffee and tea. i’ve done mo…

  in Why are you not 100% raw? Comment by stylistchick
• i agree with belisarius, you don’t need to worry. if anything, you will have to worry about getting too thin. i had about 40 lbs to lose when i started on raw about 5 months ago, i would say i have lost about 20, and in the first 2 months i pigged …
