thanks bryan. i wonder why it says 35 calories on the carton if its really 142 calories??? (one serving=one carton)
maybe it was the fat. makes sense i guess. but is such a reaction normal? i mean i basically look like i gained 10 pounds overnight from the reaction i am having. the bloating is seriously bad. how long do you think this will last for? and is water retention part of such a

8. Re: gum
thanks sapphire. i will watch the video shortly. i figured sugar free gum before dried fruit or some other food cause i certainly dont need the added calories of more food. I eat too much as it is! and still feel i need to lose 10 pounds...which probably will turn into gaining 10 lbs with the attempt to become a non smoker. did you gain weight when you quit?

12. fruitarian diet
hello all you fruitarians out there. I am new to the raw diet and I am finding that I eat SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much fruit. part of me thinks this is good and part of me thinks this is bad and it could be why i am not losing weight. I was hoping all you experienced raw foodists and fruitarians might be able to give me some examples of a day of eating for you...whats your menu like?
thanks

13. Re: Acne!
hello. did the natural doctor say why you chould stay away from sweet fruits? does it have something to do with the low blood pressure? does it include regular sweet fruits (berries, peaches, plums etc?)
I am new to raw...only about 3 weeks. and I have seen an increase in acne and I never had acne before. I found i am getting little pimples on my chest...it sucks!

hello. ive done it for 10 days a couple times. It very difficult in my opinion. you can work out and work. but i would just decrease the amount of energy you expend during your exercise routines. you do feel rather energetic after the first few days.
good luck

SUNCLOUD. thanks for that advice. I have a feeling my calcium levels are low due to hormonal health problems I currently have....I was told my calcium levels would be affected and bone mass, etc. so that makes sense. gonna go buy some unhulled seeds after work today. I had no idea they were high in calcium!

hello all. so I am a heavy smoker...have been for 1/2 my life and have tried many times to quit with no success. I am wondering if there are any other rawfoodists in the same boat, or who perhaps quit while adjusting to the raw diet and might have some tips.
the smoking is really taking its toll on me.

hello everyone. so I am wondering, I have been raw for almost 2 weeks now (i know its not that long), and I dont feel all that superb.
