  • hi nycgrrl – it was great to meet you too. sorry you couldn’t stay. I’m not quite sure what you missed. He spoke a lot about what constitutes a whole food vs. a junk food (supplements, super foods, protein powder, refined processed food, etc). He al…

  • it’s so funny – i’ve been looking at rebounders too. I spent lots of time looking at this site http://www.qibounding.com and getting seduced by the bellicon which is super expensive. I read on that site that rebounders with springs can be noisy or b…

  • nondairyqueen – my son seems like your youngest son. He is so opinionated now about what he does NOT like. If I put something on his plate that he’s not used to, he cries and cries and refuses to eat the whole meal. I just say, ‘ok, that’s what’s fo…

  • this morning the kids had melon, mango and blueberries and they used toothpicks and made fruit ‘shish kabobs’. Very fun. re: popsicles – made a recipe for chocolate ones the other day (avocado, agave, and small amount of unsweetened cocoa) – they th…

  • nycgrrl – perhaps your body needs to rest. digestion takes a lot of energy, and maybe your body needs some repair (hence low appetite). i just checked into this thread, but you mentioned you pulled a muscle and you have been getting side stitch from…

  • rAWngish teechr – i’m also quite new to raw, but one suggestion is to reduce the amount of fat. are you eating a lot of nuts, avocado, oils, seeds, etc? so far i’ve lost about 20lbs eating raw, but in the past month i’ve been following Dr Graham’s 8…

  • i’m still in – day 23! a quick update – i’ve been 100% raw and kept the fat under 10%. for me the challenge is the salads – i love them, but i did have a tiny bit of vinegar and olive oil sometimes. i also used some herbs – i think they’re not 811. …
