I dont know what forum to post my question in, and dont wanna get banned because Ive learned so much already, but I need to speak to someone who is a raw foodist, but not a vegan one. Instead of my thread getting closed could I get some time for feedback soI might be able to find fomeone to tal to?

maybe try looking up paleo diet forums? i believe they discuss non vegan raw stuff

I actually just got a couple of PMs that are helpfull. Thanks Brian and Tamukh?

Good suggestion Jodi. And very nice of Bryan and Tamukha to contact you, Cappadocius.

You can go to www.rawpaleoforum.com, or www.cavemanforum.com.

Lots of lovely carnivores over there, I'm sure!

is there anyone here who has tried the paleo diet that can pm me?

Why don't you just go to those sites and check them out, no need to ask them to PM you, it's what they are all talking about. that's where you'll find lots of people with lots of experience to ask your questions of.

continuing to ask about non-vegan topics HERE Will get you banned. it's as simple as that.

Uh oh. I just realized that I've been breaking the rules here Sorry everyone.

I most likely will not go vegan and will always eat a little cheese or a little raw fish occasionally. So, off to another site/forum I go! I'm self banning me.

Thanks for the advice and discussions everyone. Good luck with your food and health!

Farewell,

Bill

Bryan has never said you have to be vegan to be on this board; you just must be respectful of the vegan-ness of the board and only discuss animal-friendly topics. It's real easy and omnivores are a part of this board all the time, I'm sure, as long as they follow the rules.

I tried the paleo diet. I could not do it, after about two weeks my body was nervous, edgy, and my skin broke out and my chronic pain came back.

Cappa,

Good luck in your search : )

Bill,

If you are primarily raw veg, you may find it more welcoming here; the paleo sites tend to be, shall we say, derisive of vegetarians.

As long as people here limit their questions/discussion contributions to language that isn't animal product-oriented, participation here is fine.

I dont wish to upset you, so maybe re read your question, then ask yourself why you are choosing to ask this question on a raw vegan board?
Its simply about what you are choosing to talk about...but hey, you must, by now be aware of that!

Hi Everyone! I'm back. I looked at some other forums... they ranged from something that appeared to be more like a dating site, to ones with Paleo Diet enthusiasts who were trying to find sources of unspeakable forms of raw foods (the kind you can't talk about in this forum). Yuk.

So, I'll ask my vegan questions here and try to keep myself in line.

One comment though about an interesting event a few days ago. A friend had a buy 1/get 1 coupon for a massive meat product at a massive meat product chain restaurant. I'd been 100% raw for 3 or 4 days, so I figured what the heck (going along with my "most of the time" commitment). I ate it. About 30 minutes later, I vomited. I was sick feeling the rest of the night. I literally felt it move from my stomach into my intestines hours later.

**NOT** doing that again!!!

Welcome back Bill; it seems your body is trying to tell you something the paleo sites would rather you not know : )

hehe yup welcome back
