Today has been one week. I lost 4 lbs from 171.5 to 167.5. I had a few slip-ups but I'm learning and growing. I feel a lot better. I'm craving fruit and just gnawing on raw veggies doesn't seem appetizing to me right now. <shrug>? I have found marinated raw mushrooms to be amazing and raw squash/zucchini to be good as spaghetti. I'm kinda scared of salads because they made me sick w

He had anorxia and bulimia for years and nearly died weighing in the high 60's. He decided to eat raw, and it's more "safe" for ana/mias, but then the eating disorder changed to orthorexia where he is consumed with only eating the purest food. He washes his hands until they crack and bleed. He has problems with his father abandoning him and he wrote a piece on child molestation. He can'

Fruitgirl Yep there was sodium in the sauce. David I never thought of eating one food for an entire day. I guess that would be the best 'elimaination' diet to see what bothers me.

He's so sad. I've never heard such intense OCD behavior. I really think he's reaching out the only way he knows how. I pray for him. I don't know if he CAN get better... maybe with psyche drugs. :-(

You all are just the best. I love it here. Today was a good day. I had a few moments when I was nervous about eating a piece of fresh baked bread, and had to remind myself it was ok, I don't have to 100% raw immediately. I was more relaxed and had some nectarines, bananas, pears, raw yellow squash w/ jarred spag sauce. (YUM) I'm going to try to make my own marinara. I also had herbed raw mu

Actually the diet for this disease is VERY low fiber HIGH simple carbs, as they are easier to digest. People that have this can get bezoars. This is undigested fiber that forms a ball like a cat hair ball. They have to be surgically removed. Some people are on feeding tubes because the can't ingest anything at all, some have pacemakers installed in their stomachs, and worse case some have their s

Thanks to all of you. Coco I can really relate to what you wrote. I have secondary adrenal insufficiency (similar to Addison's) I really want off the cortisone, but can only hope that will happen. I had a good day today and will try mono eating. I did make a pine nut sauce last night over mushrooms. I guess I need to keep the fat down. I usually stick to 1/2 avocado and a little nut butter

Long term ED's can cause gastroparesis, a paralyzation of the gut. I have this. Blended foods would be best such as smoothies because they are already broken down before they enter the gut. This isn;t medical advice, I just see so many symptoms that you have, just wanted you to know about it. Gastroparesis literally means paralyzed stomach. It is a devastating condition that is fairly commo

Anyone have tips on good books to read for a raw newbie?

I know raw can be as simple as choose a fruit and eat it, and I'm not looking for a bunch of complicated recipes or anything, I just like reading and want to lea

I have this: Gastroparesis literally means paralyzed stomach. It is a devastating condition that is fairly common among the diabetic population, although it can be caused by a number of other factors as well. Gastroparesis results in delayed emptying of food and liquid from the stomach. Once food is ingested, it often sits in the stomach for hours or even days because the stomach does not con
