Hi Jodi---
I have lots of 4's and 8's too. My name adds up to 8, my addresses and phone numbers, etc etc...so many 4's and 8's. I keep wanting to be a 7, but...not yet. I knew when khale made the challenge 7weeks it was because of the niceties of this number...transformation, break throughs, higher consciousness, all those good things.
I can hardly remember what I learned years ago about

Hi there
my 2 cents:
I think a short (short, not 10 days) fast can be good for some people. I did this myself just recently (4 days) as I was just coming off some vile eating habits and my gastric disturbance was great (the burning sensation of phoney hunger, gurglings, etc) and my taste buds were so perverted, etc.
I had just resumed raw for a few days and decided that a short fast

Hibiscus love southern Calif! They are all over San Diego. They are very susceptible to white fly infestation, but on the leaves, not the flowers.
There is a large yellow hibiscus in the yard, I may taste a petal
Someone has mentioned hydrangea...I just tasted that and it was so bitter.
I have calendula flowers all over, and those are pretty tasty. I have a friend who once ate ever

Yeah, that sucked all right...all of them, bunch of nincompoops. They need to go raw and get away from that allopathic medicine! And I am ready to stop watching it, LOL!!!! Seriously. Modern medieval hoax medicine and whacko people (but I LOVE Sandra Oh's face, what an artpiece!) (BTW, I am addicted to TV, I am ashamed to say.)
This morning I had a couple of bananas and a honey mango.

Yes, Monark, this is fun. I am so happy to be back on the raw path. Thanks for your comments. I'm rooting for you, too.
I continued...with another banana.
I'm satisfied now and Grey's Anatomy is over and I am mad at it, LOL, and I am going to go to sleep and I hope to sleep 10 hours. Stupid doctors, heh heh.
I need to detox from tv.

Welcome Veggielove! Glad you are here....I can relate so well to your intro.
Best wishes to you...there is a 7 week challenge thread on the discussion thread if you want to check into that, too. It is more support and motivation.
Yes, I think so many of us can relate to issues of weight, emotional eating, overeating, and the rest of the gamut that is created by toxic cooked substances.

610. Re: weight loss
Hi.
I was just talking about this in my journal. I am newly raw again (RE-freshing!!) and losing weight fast. (I need to, about 40 or so lbs overweight)
The first time I went raw I was obese. I went 100% raw and lost weight extremely fast---not trying to lose that fast, but it was just happening. I ate fairly simply (no recipes)---fruit, salads, avocados (sometimes 2 daily), tahini dres

Hi Tashapup,
I agree with above posts...start trying more fruits...it is summer and there are so many. Since ultra sensitive now, try eating different fruits, only one at a time until you are satisfied and see how you feel.
Try salads...would you care for a salad with lettuce and cucumbers or tomatoes or bell pepper (red, yellow or orange) or celery? The lettuce and celery are neutral a

Meowwwww! Hi there!!!!!!
You sound great! Yeah, the 7 week thread is so warm and friendly I like it too.
Try dates instead of the lava bar. I buy dates and also these date logs rolled in coconut and always have them in my purse. They are perfect for those times when you might have a yen for something like a lava bar. I am SURE if you eat one or two of those, you will lose the taste f

Tiffany! HI!
Try my Goji dessert, it is AWESOME! Glad you got them...a little surprising at first, eh? But, they really grow on you once you get over the surprising taste.
And your dates! I love dates, I use them for my sweet sweet cravings...and only need one or two , three at most. And when you make homemade salad dressing, often a date or two added to blender helps balance out the t

Hi Noff!
I love fruit and I love lettuce! I don't know about the fixed 80-10-10 thing. Right now I am just eating. Fruit and greens. I LOVE salads. Often I crave greens. Romaine, butter lettuce, red leaf, green leaf, kale. Not so much the bitter greens...except for watercress, and it is such a pretty little plant.
Not so much into the roots.
Anyway, I sure am enjoying what I'm

Hi there Monark!
Good for you! Sounds like a great day, and you got to take the food that no one wanted and it was perfect for you! I love love red, yellow, orange bell peppers...did you know that green ones are unripe bell peppers?!?
I want to get a spiralizer. I love zucchinagetti too, and it would be so much fun to make it with that gadget.
I always think I will forget my food, too

Very good day today. When I woke up there was a lot of detox going on again, and it continued for a couple hours and then I felt much better. The detox mode is the early morning hours (starting sometime after midnight I think, and continuing into morning) and my body is sooooo into it lately, now that I am on a raw diet and not consuming 1000's of cooked sugary chocolatey calories at night.

628. Re: goji berry help!
Cute fish!
I get goji berries in People's Co-op. They are little reddish dried berries, not very sweet. I googled, as I was curious to see what they look like fresh, etc. I am still wondering---anyone?---
do they grow anywhere here in states?
They grow, Tiffany, in Tibet. Very high in vit C, antioxidants. Taste a little like cranberrie. Can be very dry (is that too old, too dry?
