2. New juicer
So I have been trying to join the raw lifestyle, but it has been rather hard. So I have decided to start with juicing since I LOVE JUICE. I don't really need solid food I just enjoy drinking juice a lot, and I would like to start the detox process as quickly as possible. But, I'm not sure what kind of juicer to get. I would like a juicer that does everything relatively well, but mostly hard fruit

I also have IBS or a type of IBS called crohn's disease. I'm not 100% raw either, but I can tell you that when I eat only fruit and veggies and nuts, thats the only time that I feel good. I have noticed that caffeine makes everything soo much worse for me, and have so stopped drinking it.
I am still on medication for it, but only on one of them now instead of the many that i was on before. Y

this may be a not so smart question..but mono eating fruits...does that just mean eat the same fruit all day? and then just move onto another fruit the next day?

So I have recently developed a large, painful, hard, red bumb on my buttocks. It has happened before, but not quite so badly. I also have Crohn's disease and I'm not sure if that is related to it. I haven't been eating so well over the past few days so I feel like that may be the cause of it. I was just wondering if anyone has any ideas of what I could do to get rid of it and stop the pain. It be

Hey,
Last week was horrible, I was sick, my Crohn's began to act up, I was dizzy, nauseous, lightheaded, and in pain alll week. I went to health center, had tons of tests done only to find out that i was fine, apparently. I think it just has something to do with what I am eating...or not eating. Maybe I don't have enough protein in my diet, or it could be that I haven't been following my plan

Hey Hey,
So nothing new has really happened, I'm still eating like I have been since I got here...but I feel like I'm getting a cold. I don't want to take medicine for it because I don't like medicine. I don't know what I should do to stop this cold from getting worse. I don't really have the time to deal with a cold. I will stress too much and it will just become worse than it already is.

9. Tofu
Hi! So I was surfing around either here or some other raw food site quite a few months ago, and I read that Tofu and soy are actually not very good for us, or specifically women in general. I am trying to research this more just to see if it really is. And if it is so bad then why do so many people rely on it for their nutrition. I do not like tofu...this is just a point of curiosity for me. Any

Hey! so its been a while I suppose.
Well my summer went by very fast and for the most part it was pretty amazing! Towards the end I was very stressed out and went to the junk food vegetarian side of everything. I felt horrible the whole time and that prolly made everything worse.
Now I'm in college, and it feels amazing! This place feels more like a home than my actual home. I love it her

Thank you so much Lizard! I really truely appreciate what you have told me. Reading that and rereading it has helped alot. It's great to know that someone knows how I'm feeling, even though they aren't really the best circumstances in the world.

Thanks Lizard! I think I will try that and see how it goes. I have a feeling this may work really well for me. They teach meditation at karate, but we never really go that in depth into it. This book I read called Eat, Pray, Love was about this woman's year long adventure to find herself and to seek a higher power ('god'-like image). This woman actually went through this experience and she went v

hey, I just want to tell you that I have been there and I know what you are going through. I definitely think that sleep and plenty of water will do the best for you, with some fruits that you tolerate the most. This seems to work for me anyway, but like others have said, we all have different reactions to different things.
I wish you luck! you will make it through!

Hey!
Thanks Lizard! I'm glad to hear that this has worked out for you! It gives me motivation to keep going with this. Sometimes it can be really hard today to not eat those 'comfort foods' when you get the urge. But each time I don't give in and eat some fruit, I feel wayyyyy better than if I were to have that ice cream or mac and cheese.

Hi! well, so far so good, no ranch dressing and today instead of a salad for lunch I brought a pear. I don't seem to be that hungry lately, which is kind of normal for me as I rarely actually feel hungry.
This morning I ate a banana, I LOVE bananas, they are one of my favorite fruits, besides pears. Basically they are all I eat, these two fruits, but I love them! I also eat strawberries and b

Hi! OK, so I'm starting out on this raw lifestyle. I've been trying for about a month and a half, but I seem to be getting stuck and going back to cooked foods. I just thought that if I kept records and set goals somewhere that is concrete and not just in my head I would more easily reach my goals. I like keeping records of how I'm doing and hopefully this will keep me motivated. Thank you all fo

David Klein has a book out for the self-healing of Colitis and Crohn's Diesase. Neither of these were on your list of diseases but Crohn's is an autoimmune disease. Here is a link to his website for more information.
