• I suppose I didn’t realise my sentimentality towards food until I gave in with that. Maybe I did, but not to the full extent. So I’ve been thinking alot about that lately. Part of it is that I’m several thousand miles from one of the people I care a…

  in AH! BREAD! Comment by have_mersey
• I was refferring to non raw people not taking it seriously. I want everyone around me to be as happy and healthy as I am, so when they do ask I tell them, and it would definitely seem hypocritical to gnaw on a scone and say, “oh yes, cooked food is …

• I ate some scones :(. I couldn’t resist! George makes really good (wholemeal/whole grain) scones, and he invited me over for tea one afternoon. Oh my! Ah I loved it. I felt guilty, but I didn’t feel physically bad at all. He used Rye and Oatmeal, no…

• The only reason I spend more now is that I used to live only on beans and bread products I baked at home. But was I getting any nutrition from that? No. And half the people complaining are the ones who DO have the money and spend that much, or more …

• exactly! Meat costs more. Why didn’t they just say “because we don’t think anyone would want vegan here”, or something.

  in "Not Cost Effective" Comment by have_mersey
• Not cost effective? HOW? One of my grumpy roommates said that and instead of my correcting him, I had to leave the room. I felt like pulling off an imaginary white glove and slapping him with it. The time he complained about costs the worst, I asked…

• I used to beat myself up if I slipped and ate anything bad for me. I’d try and undo it by eating extra healthy foods, or doing cleanses (this again was when I was eating cooked vegan and would eat half a cake or something). I would end up feeling li…

  in Spinoff: is tea raw? Comment by have_mersey
• I personally don’t care. Black tea isn’t raw in the first place, and then yes, sometimes I BOIL the water! But it makes me SO immensely happy that I think it isn’t a big deal(especially if black tea is the ONLY “cooked” thing you consume). I don’t h…

• I was going to say Candida too. It sounds like the effects from it dying off slightly(yay you’re obviously threatening it). It can constipate and make you feel TERRIBLE. Also you may need to add in ALOT of enzymes until your body can handle things o…

  in Raw, is it for me?? Comment by have_mersey
• I had figured it might taste better raw(What doesn’t?).

  in CAROB Comment by have_mersey
• It only has a vague chocolate taste(more like vageuly milk chocolate). I have only tried heated carob admittedly. But if you want a less stimulating effect, combine part cacao and part carob. 3 parts carob and 1 part cacao. approximately. :) Sometim…

  in CAROB Comment by have_mersey
• I always thought it meant “dear(est?) heart”. But anyway, I’m not exactly with anyone, but the person whom I love most (that sounds awful) has always been a very healthy eater. They always consumed a high portion of raw vegetables, and fruits, but d…

• mm! Yours sound good. I am a mexican food freak too. :) Onions and mushrooms are what I use. yum! Romaine is great. It works as a tortilla replacement, bread replacement…it’s just great. I will have to try yours as soon as I locate some raw pumpkin …

  in TACOS! Comment by have_mersey
• You may not have been “moving” because you were stressed.You should just be as raw as you can, when you can. :)

• And this has nutritional analysis of various herbs and greens. I have a few other links somewhere, but If you got a look at my bookmarks, you would understand why it may take a while to find those. http://www.prodigalgardens.info/Nutritional%20A…

• I think mood swings are caused by 1. Stress 2. diet(and she will be detoxing alot of the chemicals that may have been her problem previously, If that is her problem) 3. Discipline(this goes for adults too). 4. Excercise. As silly as it sounds, lack …

• You know, I noticed I am getting major healing crisis symptoms now more than ever. I think once your body feels like it’s vitamins and minerals are stocked, and it has rested a bit, that it is time to clean out PROPERLY. I have been flipping out. em…

• I was going to post that I want to join. I have been thinking about fasting with water on the full moon for spiritual reasons, but I think the days before and after I will be doing just grapefruits,just limes, or apples. Or like you said and switchi…

  in mono-fruit diet? Comment by have_mersey
• Some are just dried longer. More moisture means it could spoil faster so they make it drier to keep. Also some is old and just gets dry. I have experienced all of the above, and I too prefer the softer types. But that isn’t always possible. :) Enjoy…

• They will get used to whatever it is. Be calm, and make sure you eat the exact same thing often and show enjoyment. I took care of my sister growing up, and I swear she “hated” EVERYthing. Fruit,beans,vegetables, everything. BUT I just started givin…

• Some ARE lighlty fishy. But most are just goooood.

  in Seaweed Comment by have_mersey
• haha. Maybe the trace minerals you need. :) I love it too. Certain types I just suck on and then chew. I haven’t had any (whole anyway, only kelp powder) in a bit, I need to pick some up.

  in Seaweed Comment by have_mersey
• Well, I am happy that they enjoyed it and understand you are healthy and happy. That is an important part of their acceptance of it. My parents know, it’s just the rest of the family that will be a pain. They complain about anything and everything. …

• I think I will either tommorrow or the day after. I’ve been wanting to do a few days of every week of fasting and/or feasting, and I like the non-”anal retentive” approach. :)

  in Green drinks fast/feast Comment by have_mersey
• I have had the same problem. Make sure the dehydrator is a bit above the temperature it says because it takes it a while to heat up and actually get to that temperature. That solved my problem.

• Your body will be hungry for carbs and sugars after a water fast and most likely will over indulge in them since it has felt deprived. That is why people say you gain after a water fast. It’d be better to do Smoothies for weight loss. Or take apple …

• Supposedly you only get acne if your liver is overworked, then everything gets sent out through the skin. So you might look into foods or herbs (whichever is most comfortable to you) that help cleanse the liver. Also, make sure you are “regular”, if…
