  • I have eaten there, as I am originally from Chicago. It was my favorite restaurant on the planet! They did not have any raw when I was there. Have you tried Karyn’s Fresh Corner? She has a very popular raw restaurant in Chicago. Aaaah..the memories!…

  • Thanks troubles and Winona. Both sound great. I sometimes forget about just wrapping stuff and I can do both these recipes in romaine leaves.
  • Thanks troubles. I know I am getting plenty of simple carbs….but no complex ones that I am aware of. I am giving serious consideration to adding cooked rice and legumes to my diet. I am eating a good amount of fruit I think. I hate thinking so much.…
  • hey Jellibi…let me know if you are ever coming thru and I will meet you at are fabulous co-op for a meal! You are pretty lucky to be near Portland. You must eat well. I just realized I never really got my initial question answered about risk of bact…
  • Thanks everyone. jah rawstafari, the pizza crust did have buckwheat groats in it. I feel bad ever time I eat one. That must be it for that issue. However I was REALLY sick the other night. Won’t go into details other than to say it was not vomiting.…
  • Someone….please respond :o)
  • You are welcome for the links Angie. Let me know if you are looking for something particular and don’t find it on those sites. I have other resources. god knows what the hell one would find on used underwear! Ugh! I just grossed myself out!
  • chicory…i just read your post and laughed! I am always amazed when people buy used underwear! Yikes. There isn’t enough natural bleach in the world to make me comfortable with that :o)
  • Jellibi, Many years ago I was in a similar dilemma before I went vegan. I was already vegetarian, but had not let go of leather and wool. It seemed wasteful to me to discard the items because my rationale was that they were already dead and I did no…
  • jellibi, I think it is admirable that you are trying to limit your animal product consumption. I also understand that you feel natural products are better than synthetic. I choose not to use animal products because I simply want to cause as little h…
  • I think anytime we act on behalf of others, regardless of their species, is the best choice for all concerned. We can never go wrong when compassion is what motivates are decisions. jellibi, I implore you to look into the issue of wool. Australia pr…
  • Superfood….I have 3 words for you…. I like you :o)
  • RawKidChef, Thank you so much for posting this! I agree 100%. Honey is mass produced. The amount of small beekeepers in relation to the magnitude of mass producers are minimal at best. We don’t NEED honey so why manipulate another species and furthe…
  • Honey Crisp…bar none

  • Hey Jellibi…I am eating more greens than ever before in my life. Victoria lives in my town. Maybe I will contact her and as if she found a solution. It’s kind of freaking me out because I feel like maybe I am missing something in my diet to cause th…
  • Oh…one last thing…..does anyone think there is a connection to not getting enough complex carbs? I have been concerned about missing complex carbs from my diet. I miss brown rice!
  • troublesjustabubble…I have not changed my brushing routine. I brush first thing in the AM and before bed. This sensitivity is definitely connected to being raw. I feel like the nerves are exposed when I eat cold or sweet stuff. Very bizarre! Other t…
  • Thank you so much everyone for your responses! This is like a raw support group. I love it! It really helps me a lot. I feel such a strong draw to this way of life, but I also view this as complicated or difficult at times. I spent the ENTIRE day ye…
  • Thanks troubles. I will try the nanamilk. I am vegan and don’t do honey so maybe I can use agave. Although I just read a post where someone supplied a link to foods that were not raw and agave was on the list as well tons of other things I eat like …
  • Thanks troubles…. You are probably right. I need to just bite the bullet and withdraw. I just seriously get hungry. So are you saying after eating only fruits and veggies for awhile, then a cleanse, you adjusted to the lighter stuff? Do you eat s…
  • Holy crap (no pun intended) :o) I hope I don’t break out in sores. I have been veg for so long, I imagine I have an edge over the non veg lady! So troubles, did you do the whole cleanse or just the colon one?
    in Feel like crap Comment by vegan
  • Hey troubles, What cleanse did you do? I am thinking about this one: http://www.blessedherbs.com/?af=1185#the%20Colon%20Cleansing%20Kit I think I need to be able to at least drink juice or green smoothies to get thru the fasting part, as I am hypogl…

  • Thank you again for the encouragement Winona! And thank you for the compliment on my work. I commit my life to animals…which is why I don’t eat them :o)
    in Feel like crap Comment by vegan
  • I am sure that I don’t feel well because of not knowing recipes and so I just eat what is easy and what I know now, like pate´s and stuff. Winona, I am afraid if I go back to eating cooked food, I will struggle to get back. Cooked food is so addicti…
    in Feel like crap Comment by vegan
  • Thank you everyone! I really appreciate the support. I have been feeling discouraged because the way I feel. My stomach has been upset probably from eating too many nuts and I just feel gross. I did not go raw to feel bad! heyenglish, I wish I could…
    in Feel like crap Comment by vegan
  • OK, I just posted something in Introductions saying I feel like giving up because I feel like crap. But it has only been 2 weeks raw so if an increased libido is waiting for me, I think I will stick this out ;o)
