• raw corn and tomato salad has been my dinner for nearly a week straight...I'm rather hooked on it:)

• The easiest raw foods I've found don't involved ANY prep work at all. I find it annoying to prepare all the raw meals that involve dehydrated and mucking about in the kitchen. I just cut up about 11 tomatoes and have at it, or fill my sink with lett…

• MelissaReed's right; I'm at the MELTING phase (the fat melting phase that is) and I feel like no matter HOW much low fat fruit I eat, I still lose weight and that's ok (I've got a few to lose I feel)...just stay with it, and my advice is to keep you…

• Ew, that happens here in Korea A LOT; Korean fruit is generally okay, but they have serious banana issues. They're either totally ripe and perfect and the people toss them in the bin, or else they're green and horrible and brown inside, and people b…

• I've never really thought about it, but I've never had a problem just eating fruit. I will say though that my green smoothies do feel a bit squirrely first thing in the morning....I usually leave those for after my oranges at breakfast. Usually abou…

• Cauliflower doesn't bother me, but I'm only eating it raw and then only on occasion...the chives I'm not sure of, since I've not had those in quite some time. I think cooked though there's something about cauliflower that does cause gas.

• ooh, yes, agave nectar...I'm scared to ask about that too:) I don't happen to enjoy the taste, so that cuts it out for me, if for no other reason. I feel like it's just too sweet? but, then again, when I first went raw, everything seemed too VEGGIE …

• I STILL have this on occasion, the feeling pukey bit, when I take in too much kale or swiss chard, or wheatgrass juice...WOW, it's like I've taken an iron supplement on an empty stomach or something, kind of INSTANT nausea...My advice? ease into it,…

  in My body doesnt like raw foods!! :-( Comment by tabbycats_tofu

• I wouldn't worry too much about losing weight. Perhaps you're just meant to be on the thinner side of the majority? that's okay if you are. The book talks about how you're going to lose and then perhaps gain, while your body gets used to it...I beli…

• Hi! I agree with what Kelly wrote, and I've a few tips of my own:) Well, they're not my tips exactly...I kind of stole them from the 80-10-10 book. But I'm sure Dr Graham won't mind:) The BEST feeling ever comes around when I do just eat fruit. When…

• ha, I feel your pain sipusa, I'm living in South Korea right now and there's nothing like a raw restaurant here. I've never really found a REAL, 100% vegetarian place either (they always sneak in fish sauce or beef stock), but I've heard they exist.…

  in Getting fat Comment by tabbycats_tofu
• I have found the only way my body feels super great is by eating just fruit...80-10-10 is great, but I did find even the 10% fat was too much. After about two months following 80-10-10, I found all I wanted was fruit. I've been eating fruit solid no…

• I can tell you what I keep in my purse for a snack:) Staples for me include green smoothies (dangerous, yes, because if the lid's not on TOTALLY right, you'll get a green bag instead of a snack) which go down easily and quickly, and are a breeze to …

• I love spotty bananas...those are the best ones. AND they're usually cheaper:) I feel the same way about food, it's not going in the bin until I SAY it's going in the bin, and htat's only if the bugs have gotten to it before me....

• It's true, my poo is green too. I have to say, I get slightly anxious when it turns kind of yellowish from bananas, since that green colour is so comforting:)
