i have only been raw since may. but that "weird" feeling went away for me last month. i do not think it is the time line aspect. for me, anyway.
for me, i just had the light bulb go on over my head sort of thing. its all in the mind. i just try not to bring too much attention to it, but if its unavoidable, i certainly do not try to justify myself. this is my choice and i do not have

i completely know what you mean. trust me, that weird feeling goes away.
you become more and more comfortable as time goes on.
and, sometimes people actually look up to you for it. there are not many people in this world brave enough to take this risk, and some, intelligent people admire this. this is where you will discover a new phase of raw. the phase where people admire you and ask yo

i felt socially isolated at first for this very same reason. i did not want the temptation. nor did i want to explain that i had eatten ahead of time because i am raw.
but now, i pretty much accept all invitations. i am no longer tempted and i have no problem telling people i am raw. the most common question is, "dont you miss this food? or How do you do it?"

Sorry, i dont know how to find the documentary i watched on discovery channel. but these websites looked interesting. not sure how accurate any of it is though. hope this helps you make a more informed decision. the last link looked like it had the most info about hormones and weight in general.
good luck!

i will definitely try to find some info for you tomorrow, but of course, you probably know that you do not need any supplements or external hormone injections to lose weight. just exercise, raw vegan living, rest, water, and of course time and patience and endurance and motivation, anywhere you can find it!

tashi, i understand how you would be afraid to get pregnant again after going through that. but even the pill is not 100%. have you considered a diaphram or the coil? or even condoms? if you feel you must use a form of bc, you could do one of those without drugs.
but please know that i am only giving suggestions. you must decide what is right for you. it is very personal for all of us, and if

oh, yes. i saw this. they tested it on rats. i remember seeing it on discovery channel. the rats were given the same diet and not allowed to exercise. but the rats who were given this hormone did not gain weight, while the others became obese.
i think they also tested another hormone that is released in people who are not obese and those who are. i can not remember the name of the specific hor

just a suggesstion, maybe you could bring slices of apple or pear in ziplock bags to work to snack on. this helped me alot. but i know its different with you because of your t1d.
perhaps you could find something else besides nuts that will not disturbe your bs.
i really admire you, karen. i know it was hard for me to adapt to this lifestyle. i can not imagine how hard it would be if i had

i have never heard of such a thing. i would like very much if someone on this forum knows about this if they could post it.
erik, why were you worried about this? have you heard of this happening to someone before?
i personally would be more concerned about this happening to meat eatters, not raw vegans.
by the way, your english is great!
