• mamamilk-haha you’re so cute. Believe me, I definitely couldn’t do forty days. I think I would waste away. It’s been almost four and I’ve lost alot of weight. How much does your husband lose when he does the forty day fasts? beany-hmmmm, don’t recal…

• Beany- you are always so encouraging:) I don’t know what caused the fainting but I am working full time and being a wife and all that . Which means I still made dinner, folded laundry (despite my husbands protests) and cleaned the house on top of be…

• beany-definitely. I’m on Day 4. Last night was the worst I’ve ever felt in my life. I had an unbearable headache and couldn’t sleep so I set up camp on the couch so that I could be vertical(I don’t know why but I always do better that way). Well I f…

• yeah, I’m exactly that way. It’s been along time since I prayerfully read the bible and really decided to let God guide me. I don’t know why it’s so hard for me to do that. It’s so amazing!

• Hey Beany-I’m doing alright. It’s hard to work when I’m physically weak and a little spacey. But spiritually it’s been really amazing. It’s become obvious to me that this fast was to bring me to the right attitude of Bible reading. I tend to get int…

• mike4973-I really like the idea of juicefeasting! I have a juicer and did a juice fast which was what led me to going raw. I’ve heard from so many people that fresh juices cured all of their health problems. The hard part with juicing for me is that…

• Thanks everyone for the tips. I’ve been convicted for several months to fast and it has been affecting my walk with God alot lately. When I pray now it’s like the elephant in the room. The more I think about it the more excited I am to be in His wil…

• Hey, change of subject I know but I’m considering a water fast for spiritual renewal and reconnection. I’ve known for a while that I need to do it but just haven’t committed to it. I’m inspired by this thread and have decided to do it for real. I’m …

• I don’t have any tools and eat completely basic foods like whole fruits, and leafy, green salads. I’m perfectly content with that and the occasional sprouted grain. It is cheaper for me now that I switched because I’m not buying meat and dairy(which…

• I’m sad for you rosehebrew! What part of the country do you live in? Is the culture very set in its ways? I’m in the mid-mid-west(missouri) and I feel that at a large number of people are at least extremely interested in raw living and many have dec…

• Wow! I can’t believe I didn’t discover this thread earlier! I’m a Christian in Kansas City Missouri and started raw this past may. I’m loving it and finding how amazingly it affects both my body and spirit. I’ve felt so much freer to focus on my wal…

• Thank you queenfluff! I’ll take this into consideration. I know I have to go through the detox and that’s why I’m putting it off. But I’m considering it more now. It might be worth it. We’ll see.

• Winona, I wash my hair everyday and if I go one day without it it gets really greasy. I tried lemon juice but on day three my hair started detoxing and was incredibly waxy. Would the baking soda take that out? Do you put water with the baking soda b…

• when I rinsed my hair with lemon juice today I still had alot of oil around the scalp and the rest of my hair felt very stiff like I had just gotten out of the pool. Should I not do it two days in a row? Should I alternate?

• Does that make your hair smell like vinegar? I thought about that and decided to go with lemon juice but my hair doesn’t smell like lemon at all. It just smells clean and soft.

• Alright everyone, I did the lemon juice today and rinsed and didn’t put any product in my hair and it’s amazing! It feels like baby hair and is so soft and fluffy. Before I put the lemon juice in I brushed and brushed my hair not only to get it unta…
