Hey all,
So things are going well with me. I am still eating about 70 per cent raw and doing well. I would like to get my raw intake up again.
I eat a lot of salad and have just restarted the green smoothie regime. I am making less gourmet stuff and just eating simple meals.
I have lost about 30 pounds now, but I am focusing more on making small changes I can stick with than huge chan

This is the easiest and my favourite way to use it.
Take about a cup of the pulp, squeeze some lemon juice and a little bit of Braggs on it. Add some chopped green onions and stuff cucumbers with it. I make it in the evening and bring it work for lunch.
I posted this on my blog you can check out the photos and full recipe

Hey all, I have been having some hits and missed in my transistion to raw. Somedays I am at 100 per cent with out even trying. Other days I all crave is foods that aren't good for me.
I have been experiementing with recipes and new foods. Dragon fruit was a hit and durian was a miss. But I am trying to keep things fresh.
I have started a blog with some recipes. Some of my old favorites and

I needed something to keep me on track and excited about being raw vegan. I am the only person I know doing this. So I started blog posting photos and recipes I've been making.
I also did this because everyone I know who isn't raw is probably sick of me asking them to try my food.
Anyways, here's my blog if you want to check it out happyrawmom.wordpress.com

I drink green smoothies everyday. About 1-2 litres. I have been doing this for about five months and have completely cut the fruit out of them.
At first I was put in pineapple, banana or apple.
Experiment with different greens and herb until you find out what you like best. One of my favourite things is to put mint in it.
Lately I have been drinking blended pea shoots. I can't get enougt

Aside from detox symptoms, I am feeling good. I know raw food it the answer to everything for me. I should start the journal thing, well diary 'cause I am a gal.

Thanks again.

Thanks Rawlion, it' always nice to get advice from you. You've been there and are where I would love to be. I've been 100 per cent the past few days. Feeling pretty ick. I was just about to cave and eat something cooked to break this feeling, but I'll drink a green juice instead.

I am 30 and a full time single mother. My choice to go raw has made me want to transform my entire life. I am now caring about myself. Instead of thinking of the person I want to be, I am working on just being that person now.
I have been single for a while and going raw has taught me to value myself in more ways than just what I eat.
I am waiting to find the perfect match for me. Going ra

I have been eating about 80 to 100 per cent raw for the past two or three months. Been working on going raw for about a year or so.
I can tell when i get that "yuck" feeling in my body to know it's detox. It usually occurs when I am eating 100 percent.
I have a lot of weight to lose and I am wonding if I will experience this until all the weight is gone?

Here is an article I was sent my a friend. It says cooked food makes out brains bigger than other apes and more things?
I wasn't sure if it was sent to me to say what I am doing is wrong or what? But I know raw foods are going to turn my life around, hey they already have.
Tell me what you think about this.

I was talking to a lady a few weeks ago about raw food. She was a stranger, but opened up and told me her naturopath doctor diagnosed her with leaky gut syndrome. He was told to follow an alkaline diet to improve and it has worked for her.

I am still a newbie myself, but green smoothies are really helpful.
I started drinking them with greens and fruit, but now I just blend the greens. I don't have one of the super powerful blenders, so I have to add a bit of water.
Latley I have just been drinking blended pea shoots. Fresh mint and spinach is also really good.
I read Victoria Boutenko's book on green smoothies and got hoo

Well I have been a having a bit of a tough go lately. I am trying so hard to stay raw, but I am having some slip ups and some intense cravings for cooked foods. The cravings are so hard lately. I am wondering if this is a part of detox.
I am trying not to be too hard on myself, but I know raw is the way to go. Please tell me this gets easier?

Hey all, I am feel pretty good. I got on the scale the other day and I lost 19 pounds. I have been doing a lot of powerlifting so I find my body is building more muscle. I am pretty stokes on raw food.
I get some pretty strong cravings for cooked things, but I am holding off and keeping my eye on the prize.

Hey everyone, my dinner went over with flying colours. Friends of mine said they are going to make kale chips instead of popcorn now. All the food was eaten and everyone just loved it. Made me feel so good.
I make sushi with cauliflower rice, stuffed cucumbers, romaine tacos with cashew sour cream. Sour cream and onion kale chips, flax crackers, blueberry pie and ice cream.

I read in one of victoria boutenko's books to host a raw potluck. I don't know any raw fooders in person, so I have invited a few open minded friends to come over and I am going to make some dinner for everyone.
victoria boutenko said to do this to get support from the community while on the raw path.
If you were having non-raw fooders for dinner, what raw dishes would you make?

So things are looking up for me. I got a tax return and loaded up the house with healthy food. It's what I needed to get back into the swing of things. I am getting close to 100 per cent. I think it wont' be long until I am ready to make the leap.
It's been almost a year since I stumbled upon raw food. I really feel it is what is going to save me.
