  • Thanks for the replies! First of, Bitt, you're definitely right about the soaking. Thinking back, the nuts/seeds I had soaked didn't bother me, but the ones that weren't soaked did. So I'll be mindful of that moving forward. Joanna, I am eating more…
  • Hi Koaselino, Not to harp on the Lyme thing, but I've had my fair share with this insidious disease, and your symptoms sound very familiar! Lyme is certainly a potential explanation for what you are going through, especially considering you have bee…
  • thank you all… this advice really helps. pianissima: if i was willing to get colonics, would you recommend a juice fast? i was thinking a “jump-start” might help, but i can’t really afford to feel run-down or wiped-out right now…would fasting make m…
  • Thank you bitt - that’s exactly what I needed to hear!!!!! By the way - I read a lot of the posts here on Goneraw to try to learn as much as I can, and so I’ve happened to read a lot of your posts. I checked out your blog the other night and your Ne…
  • Vegan, “I have battled my weight all my life. I am freaking tired of it. So I thought if I went raw, I would be able to eat whatever I wanted and be free of thinking so much. I have read many others have been liberated from their unhealthy relations…
  • LizK—I very rarely respond to forums, generally because I feel there are people out there more “qualified” to answer questions…. But after reading this discussion, I felt compelled to respond to you. Beginning when I was 12 years old, I struggled wi…
  • Thanks everyone for your responses. I appreciate any and all advice. I TRY to be as close to 100% raw as I can – I will try to make more of an effort after reading all this! I will def. stay away from processed sugar and wheat—and TRY to avoid caffe…
  • Be the Change: what green powder did you use while coming off coffee? I am trying to do the same… what is it about the green powder that works do you think?
  • It’s funny you should suggest green juices… I have been hesitant to ask about it because it seems such an integral part of a raw diet, yet I don’t juice at all. I only do green smoothies. Would it be worth it to buy a juicer and start adding green j…
  • Oh boy, I definitely know what you mean about the caffeine… I had 2! cups of coffee today (didn’t sleep much last night and had 6 hours of class today).. and I felt AWFUL. Just jittery and all around yucky. I think coming off the caffeine “high” (wi…
  • First of all, I just want to thank everyone for all your help. You are all so knowledgeable and supportive. I would not have made it through these past couple of weeks without you all! I really think that the hardest part of becoming raw is (to use …
    in Discouraged :( Comment by erin go raw
  • Awesome!! Thank you Bitt and Zoe for your advice…I am on my way out the door to run some errands—the book store and the health food store! I will check out The China Study, and def. try out some spirulina and hemp seeds! Thanks again!!

  • hey RawK—I’m getting back into running more quickly than anticipated. My mind is more ready than my body, I’m afraid—I have been experiencing quite a bit of soreness. Do you mind if I pick your brain a bit? What is your typical daily intake look lik…
  • Hey all. I have been following along with all of you every day—such inspiration!! I am still brand-spanking new to raw (within the month).. I tried out 811 in the beginning of this month, but I couldn’t follow it to a T. I think switching from cooke…
  • okay so i am at the end of day 3 of eating 811. and i gotta say… i don’t really think i’m diggin it. i just never really feel completely full – or maybe i should say i never feel satisfied. also, i have always LOVED fruits and vegetables but i feel …
  • Okay, I’m sorry to be totally dominating this forum (and boring you to tears), it’s just that your responses are so helpful, and I have absolutely no one to discuss this with in person. So, el-bo, I will certainly use your suggestion and do a banana…
  • Awesome… I totally appreciate the feedback. el-bo, I absolutely love the fuel analogy.. I can’t wait until I feel that way! I’m afraid I’m nowhere close to monomealing. To stick with this, I think I am more apt to eat 5-6 times throughout the day. I…
  • Okay sooo I’ve been reading this post for a few days now…and today I started to eat the 811 way. I am planning to stick with it for a couple of weeks – maybe a month. I am new to raw as of about 3 weeks ago and have been eating a LOT of salads, gree…
  • Awesome!! Thanks for all the info—after less than 2 weeks eating about 80% raw, I have absolutely turned away from both seafood and egg whites. I just can’t even stomach them. I am doing a lot of research and reading and taking “baby-steps” towards …
  • yes. yes yes yes YES YES YES YES yes yes. DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT START! I would say purging is about as addictive as a drug—it is SO HARD to stop. I wish someone had told me this years ago.
