Goin' a little fruity...

Date: April 27, 2007 03:11AM I've officially done 30 days of raw (having gone from purely carnivorous cooked omni, mostly for health reasons) and feels so good that I've decided to step it up a bit. Starting tomorrow, I want to veer more towards a fruit based diet and try to wean myself from nuts, nutbutters and olive oil.
I was prompted to do this by a bout of Hellacious gas that's lasted 2 days. Cauliflower and nori doesn't agree with me anymore at all. Fruits seem to soothe my churning tum quite a bit and I've noticed feeling much better trying to eat mostly fruit today. My HUGE appetite is so much smaller than when I started. I am so ready for this now. I find that the dehydrated things really hold little appeal and the husband has commented on the same thing. I watch my kids naturally gravitate towards the fruit bowls and think we should follow their lead. Mia Re: Goin' a little fruity...

I always feel much better when I'm not eating so much fat. There's nothing like the clean 'juicy' feeling of eating fruity! I'm starting a 5-7 day fat free stint, so I'll be joining you! Love x Re: Goin' a little fruity...

Date: April 27, 2007 03:06PM A HUGE appetite is a good thing on a fruit based diet!  Eat as much as you want!
Fruit makes me feel so happy and pure. You'll have so much fun. Good luck!Sarah [goingbananasblog.com]  Re: Goin' a little fruity...

Date: April 27, 2007 03:15PM I find fresh dates help A LOT. However, I am sooo tired this morning, like I am starting another detox or something. Mia Re: Goin' a little fruity...

Date: April 28, 2007 03:23AM localharvest.org is where I ordered the dates...
OMG THE FRESH MEDJOOLS ARE HUGE and they taste EXACTLY like caramels, but BETTER!!! I am going to order these things in every week. They are NOTHING like the grocery store dried out ones...soft and chewy and sooo delish! I used to eat them fresh as a kid, but the varieties weren't as yummy as these. These are the absolute BEST. They provide such good energy when I am working hard, too. Mia Re: Goin' a little fruity...

Date: April 28, 2007 08:21PM medjools- oh my. i could never fantasize about another candy again...
miaculpa- i remember going through that phase. i cut out greens and cruciferous because they just didn't work anymore. i had to do high watery fruits, bananas kinda lost their taste, as did avocados. but when i wanted savory, tomatoes and cucumbers were such a nice clean feeling food! now i'm back into greens, but i think i just cycle, seasonally and physically. peace- Re: Goin' a little fruity...

Date: April 29, 2007 02:53PM I am just following my body toward more and more fruit. I have never wanted fruit so much in my life. I am so excited. It really is the easiest way to eat. Re: Goin' a little fruity...
