Thanks, Mona! I was born in a little town called Sebastopol, by Santa Rosa, and moved to Napa when I was 14. Most of my family still lives in that area.
I'm struggling with eating what I should and not eating what I shouldn't. I've been pretty good about starting my day with a big, fat smoothie, but it has been going somewhat downhill from there. I'm very bloated and gassy after my big, bad st

Great -- I'm flying across the country this weekend and do several times a year. I didn't think about the radiation I am exposed to in general on the plane. I know that we generally get exposed to more radiation now than ever, but Hmmm. As far as eating, I bring fruits and veggies (avos are good and filling), and eat a salad at a restaurant on a layover if I need to.

That's awesome, Jodi! Are you eating anything else or is that it (!)?

I also want to thank Bryan for a difficult job here as well, and I agree that maybe a co-moderator would be helpful. I agree in retrospect that removing offending posters for varying amounts of time, depending on the severity of the infraction, is probably a better idea than removing a whole forum and no longer being able to discuss very important issues that can seriously affect our whole lives.

I'm doing better -- had a wonderful raw corn chowder (with frozen corn from last summer's garden) for lunch today and fruit/smoothies every day. Not 100% raw, but the cooked is much healthier and I am eating more % raw (only cooked at dinner time). So I think I am going in a good direction, although I still strive for 100% raw.

So you can use profanity if it is spelled like this: "@*#% it", right?

Wow, stay off the site for a day and a half and jeez...
I want to be able, as a farmer who grows organic fruit and veggies, to discuss the latest crazy legislation trying to go through the system (as it affects us as raw foodists and healthy, conscious beings) and to engage in healthy debate, as long as it is not insulting or degrading. I do not wish to engage in sophomoric banter, and I feel

I just grew houseplants in my car. But yeah, try sprouts too.

Keep trying, and go to the library -- they have lots of gardening resources. I had a "porch farm" once -- tomatoes, basil and other herbs and flowers growing in barrels and planters on my porch because I didn't have a yard at the time. Even when I was living in my car I had plants growing! A true gypsy!

I think that will change. Everyone should grow food if they can. I've been ripping out lawns for over twenty years.

I don't know what methods are used to test soil. My hubby does, but he's at work (we're organic farmers and that's his department). I'll ask him later and respond. Also, water quality depends on where you are farming. Southern California's water is a lot more contaminated than say Northern California near the Sierras. Where I am in Massachusetts, it rains year round, so we aren't planning on irri

Wow, Elakti -- fifteen pounds in ten days!! Good for you!!! I'm right behind you! I did eat a little cooked yesterday and today, but it was very healthy and I am mainly focusing this week on not binging, not eating wheat or fried foods, and eating 90% raw, which I have done the past couple of days. After this week, I'm going to try to go all raw. By then I should be back in the "smoothie eve

It's okay Sachmo -- no one will clock you with a banana! I did that with french fries last week (I'm transitioning back again after a bad holiday spell) -- I bought a bag of organic ones and fried 'em up and ate a bunch to say goodbye. It kind of made me not miss them so much because we said our proper goodbyes!!! ;} Hubby thinks I'm a whack job now! I say clean out your fridge and say goodbye wh

Thanks for the input, guys! I did eat a banana and some raw macadamia nuts as well yesterday; I just forgot to write it in the diary.
I like fruit but have trouble eating very much of it because - well, I'm not sure why. Probably because it's cold and I am in New England but FROM California. I can spice up a soup but not fruit.
Today I had a lemon agave drink, coffee (Little one didn't s

Yesterday was pretty good (not 100% though). I had my lemon agave cayenne drink and cup o joe, then a fat smoothie with kale, flax and sesame seeds, and lots of oranges (6). For lunch I had a soup with miso, 1/2 avocado, garlic, spice, bean sprout blend, a grated carrot, mushrooms and chopped broccoli. I ate five raw chocolates that I had made the other day for a snack/dessert. I did eat two cook

Yes; I drink it almost daily and have given it to my daughter since she was a year old. It's the only thing besides water she will drink. I also "brew" it. It doesn't have alcohol, though. It is rich in probiotics. Wine is usually raw, but get organic wine.

209. I think it's time...
I've been posting on other people's diaries (and all over this forum) for about a year now (maybe more), and I figure that now's a good time to start my own. First, I'm gonna tell a little of my background, then reflect a little on my raw trip.
I am a 47 year old mother of four: three in their twenties and one almost four. I have been a vegetarian for about half of my adult life, and first lea

Hey Elakti (and everyone)!
(responding to your post on the 7th) I hear you!! I commend you for your strength that you may not even see in yourself! It is really tough sometimes. I think now is the time for me to start a diary here, because you all seem to be helped (and are helping each other) by having one, and I am feeling very inspired! So I'm going to do one right now!
Hi Soraya!!!
