1. trying again
well, i'm back off the wagon but determined to try again.
i had almost 2 days of 801010 raw vegan and the second day started feeling light headed and weak but as long as i keep eating regularly i can do it - but it's a lot to do - every hour or two
i've begun a blog to help me stay motivated and connected - please, let's all support eachother!
wishing everyone continued raw food succ

day 8 and going strong but i know i can't be complacent - temptation is everywhere - but here's the benefits i notice so far

feel more strong, stable, happy, courageous

kili - keep it up - i really relate to your motivation and reasons, though my unhealthy relationship with food has taken a different form.
one day at a time is an axiom that works for anything - this too.
best wishes on your raw diet,

hi kili - thank you for the post! the support makes such a difference! congrats to you on day 3!! awesome! when i got some headache, i just took aspirin - i wanted no excuse to go off - but they pass and kudos to you if you're sticking it out or not.
so this is day 7. it feels like an amazing journey bc so much feels so different on the inside = only drugs did that in that past really - so i'm

i'm on day 6 - i fell off on day 6 or 5 (can't quite recall) on new year's as a resolution but i was already sick and not as informed, organized as i am now.
so i feel like i got past where i fell off before and so feel great about that.
energy is a little low - i don't know if it's because i'm eating a lot to avoid getting hungry - hardest trigger to resist i figure.
but overall, i think t

hey guys - just wanted to report that i made it day 4 and am feeling pretty strong - it has everything to do with commitment - when the cravings come or my boyfriend eats something that seems yummy but isn't for me right now, i just stick with it until the urge passes - i try distracting myself - stuff i learned in 12 step programs actually!
anyway, anyone who wants to jump in any time - feel fr

for some reason i want to post what i've eaten today like others do :
green smoothie, date and nut shake, fruit, jar of olives, raw cashews, raw pecans, plan to have some veggies adn more of same to get me to bedtime
i just remembered this weak light headed feeling will probably pass even if i don't eat and so i will try to stick it out even though i'm at work - luckily just waiting around

getting cold feet - been incoporating more and more raw yet feeling really tired today and afraid of the weak feeling i get when i don't eat filling foods. there are other things i'm sure - but any and all encouragement, tips, support would be SO welcome. i chose tomorrow because it has a significance i'd like to substitute for something positive, life affirming - wanted to call it 'VB Day' for v

hi pampam -
thanks so much for the reply and support. indeed, this is something we have to do on our own; however, i've noticed that group support makes things a lot easier. i agree with you that this board alone provides a lot of support.
that would be so awesome if you would go on the 30 day challenge - i'd probably hav e to post at least once a day in the first week - that would be awesome

hi there jodi - thanks so much for the reply and the support! i'd love to have a buddy to stay accountable with. it's really slippery - i can be going along fine and then a craving will overwhelm me - scary!

hi sundancer - good post - i could really relate to 2 things you wrote especially - the different, almost anxious energy and doing ok through lunch and then losing the diet. i do like the feeling i got - felt light and naturally a little high - and yes, i do think that unresolved emotional issues start coming up and that it makes sense to work on those as well - i read someone's advice to that ef

hi there - i'm in los angeles and really struggling with going and staying 100% raw vegan which is my goal - i'm shooting for april 24 as new date but i can see the importance of peer support which i lack as i'm the only one i know personally doing this!

hi there - can anyone help with this question? i'm struggling to get raw and stay raw and i know a support group would make a big difference. the meetups haven't happened yet and i am thinking of starting one = meeting once a week, going to raw restaurant and sharing tips and recipes; but if one like this already exists, i'd love to know about it.
thanks!
