  • mmm, i've really been blissing out on oranges lately. but rainier cherries (the yellow ones) are my all-time favorite fruity delicacy.
  • jakkrabbit, you are absolutely amazing. a total inspiration. i'm so blown away by your beautiful energy and positivity. looking forward to reading much more from you, friend.
  • jakkrabbit, i applaud you for asking the difficult questions. i too was raised christian and came to my own time of questioning/ searching last year. it was incredibly scary and painful to question the beliefs i had held so dear. i definitely echo s…
  • sounds like you're doing great, liger! i'm so proud of you (and all you guys on this thread). i still struggle with temptations to binge, but the longer i stay consistently raw, the more i just crave raw. eating is slowly becoming less of a battle a…
  • liger! i'm with you, friend. i've struggled with a binge/ restrict cycle for years. eating high raw is the only thing that truly stabilizes me and helps restore a healthy relationship with food and my body (but i definitely fall off the wagon a lot)…

  • hey meghan! i wholeheartedly echo the good advice already given. it really helps me to observe how amazing i feel on raw, versus how crappy i feel when i binge on stuff my body wasn't intended to digest (super-greasy mexican food! how i love it!) be…
  • that is awesome, Indysay! i got a memorable buzz recently after eating a bowl of mango pudding (a puree of mango and soaked dates). i was tingling with bliss all night. love it when my body thanks me for giving it the good stuff.

  • i've been doing lots of lettuce wraps lately - just tossing some veggies in little dressing (could you do a little lemon juice and sea salt if you're 811?) and wrapping them in a leaf of bibb, romaine, or kale. i lurve my veggies, but always seem to…
  • good for you, Koaselino!! it's so encouraging to see those health improvements, especially when they happen so quickly. it's like your body is telling you how much it loves and appreciates what you're doing. just imagine how many more wonderful heal…
  • that is fantastic, chilove! you are an inspiration to those of us (like me) who are still working toward more consistent raw eating habits. how exciting to know the amazing health benefits that are possible if we can just keep at it. you rock! thank…
  • LOL - i hear that, suasoria. i can eat them by the bowl-full, sliced with a little lemon juice and sea salt. bliss!

  • hey raw passion! i love to blend soaked raw cashews in water at high speed till creamy. a simple cashew cream. i throw in some honey/ vanilla for a sweeter cream, or lemon juice/ sea salt for a more savory "sour cream." happy blending my friend!

  • liger99, i'm so sorry you're in this dark place now. remember you're not alone. so many of us are struggling with the same thing. this past weekend i binged and feel awful today - so frustrated by this cycle, wondering if i'll ever be able to break …
  • colonics ROCK. i would get one every month if i could afford it. a series of 3 colonics helped dislodge all kinds of stuff i couldn't believe was in there :) i felt so light and clean afterward, and craved fruits and veggies like never before. if/ w…
  • what a great topic :) really soft, ripe medjool dates bliss me out like nothing else. i get these weird tingles/ waves of pleasure in my brain. glorious. ate one walking down the street yesterday and had to stop and close my eyes, i was overpowered!
  • yes! that article made me insane with joy. i too want to go through and systematically try each one.
  • good for you, girl! i love my colonics at sana vita, near union square. http://www.sanavita.org/index.html they're a bit pricy at $135, but for me a great first colonic is worth every penny. everyone there is wonderful, i can especially recommend Ar…
