  • This was happening to me this year--I'm trying to go raw, and at first when I would slip up I would really beat myself up about it. But now, I really try not to. If I eat cooked food and I feel sick, I try not to be blaming toward myself, just accep…

  • That's great! I should get to work on my house, but I can't seem to get up enough motivation. I'll start Monday, hee hee. I have done a lot of knitting and job-searching, though, and I've pretty much sold my car. So I guess I have done a lot! I made…
  • P.S. I'm loooving the simplicity of eating whole raw foods, with no spices or salt or anything. I barely have any dishes, have extra time, and it just feels nice to not even really think about that whole part of eating. I'm not looking up recipes or…
  • freepam, it sounds like your perspective is really good. It never helps to beat ourselves up about things; I really try not to do that. I want to go completely raw, and I'm doing my absolute best now. You're doing great! I'm actually going to try th…
  • Well, I did end up eating some cooked food--it didn't taste as good as I had expected, but I don't regret doing it. It was what I needed to do at that time. At this point, I'm going to go raw as completely as I feel is best for the remaining 30 days…
  • freepam, I'm only getting about 1300-1600 calories per day. Is that too little? I'm feeling kind of blue about the whole thing right now; I was really considering getting a chipotle burrito, but I'll try my best not to. I have a hard time imagining …
  • Interesting, just smelling the food...I'll really think about that. I'm enjoying green smoothies, too, but I suspect I'm not getting as many greens as I should. I've been trying to exercise, too, but it seems like I'm tired a lot more of the time la…
  • Something SO AMAZING just happened! The day before yesterday, I cut my finger badly (while chopping vegetables, of course); so badly, I bled through my first band-aid. Anyway, I was just taking off my most recent band-aid today to change it, and I e…
  • Actually, there's a whole chain of Farmer Boy's restaurants in Southern California; maybe it's connected to the Santa Barbara one. How great your grogginess is gone! :)
  • amysue, glad the crankiness is over. I've been getting cranky lately, but only because I've let myself get super hungry. I'm getting better at that, though. zinfandel, that's really good to hear! I hope that my disposition gets more even-keeled. fre…
  • amysue, thanks for your answer! That makes me feel much better. Those detox symptoms are weird! I know that when I had ME and fibro, I had lots of joint pain. I wonder if toxins had anything to do with that. I'm so glad you're feeling good now! My r…
  • I started today! Doing pretty well so far, absence of the usual stomach problems I get after eating cooked food. I had some tahini in my salad for dinner; it tasted really good, since I haven't had overt fats all day. I usually have tons of fats in …
  • I would like to try an 80/10/10 trial for January. I was planning on it anyway, actually. Originally I was just going to do a raw 30 day trial for January, but I really want to try 80/10/10 last time. I think the reason I fell off the wagon last tim…
  • I know this thread is really old, but I thought I'd revive it because I'd like some help! I have hair on my chin (and under my chin) that is thick and black, and I wax it. I want to know if anyone knows of a natural cure for this type of hair! I had…
