Date: July 23, 2007 03:16PM Congratualations! The wonderful folks on this board (including myself) will be VERY supportive and have a lot of great advice / experience for you.
Tips: 1) Start small and set small goals for a lifetime. 2) Always stay full - and never hungry. 3) Be HONEST with the level that you ARE very comfortable at and set very small goals (with timetables) to stretch from there). 4) Keep it simple, and don't feel you need to do anything complicated. 5) Always eat before you leave the house - and bring a snack. -Just some basic tips. -David Z.

Date: July 24, 2007 01:08AM You could dice the MANGO, add some finely chopped CILANTRO, (some fresh lemon or lime juice would be nice), a touch of sea salt, and eat it rolled up in COLLARD leaves.
You could make a nut pate' from your ALMONDS and CASHEWS and stuff it into CUCUMBER boats or eat it as a dip w/ sliced cukes, RED BELL PEPPER or roll it up in your GREEN LETTUCE leaves. This would probably be yummy with a fresh MANGO sauce. You could make a fiesta slaw by shredding your CABBAGE and adding chopped TOMATOE, finely chopped CILANTRO, GREEN BELL PEPPER & RED BELL PEPPER, & GARLIC ...and all this without even going to the store again! happy feasting! khale Re: Going Raw Starting today (((HELP)))

Date: July 24, 2007 05:00AM very good thanks for the info
I made a nice salad i chopped the cabbage, lettuce, and collards up with the cucumber tomatoes and peppers i did go back to the store for an avocado chopped it up too and made my own dressing i let some chopped red onion sit in orange and lemon juice along with some herbs and spices I let it sit a few hours it was so good i ate 2 small bowls. No lie i felt a buzz afterwards, I really felt high, I already love it. Tomorow I'll do the mango thing wrapped in collard leaves. thanks so much Re: Going Raw Starting today (((HELP)))
