Earthangel you should write a book with all your encouraging quotes. They are quite stunning
karennd, Please let me know how this lower fruit/higher fat approach works. I find that I really don't like alot of sweet fruit. 1-2 pieces for me is fine and I find myself eating more unripe fruit because i like it that way. For example a peach must be hard and a banana should have no brown spots.

There was a Bon Jovi song "In and out of Love" (i think) well that is how I feel In and out of raw. But I have a new goal. I am telling myself that I will be raw for 6 days a week and have one day that if I have a cooked meal it is ok. Now I am doing this because the mind is a strange thing. If I know I can have cooked I will not want it. If I say 100% raw, I start seeing cooked dan

I know exactly what you mean. I have that same thing, but with more aches (got a few years on you too). But I noticed that there was much more cracking since going raw. Maybe all those years of abuse (food and athletic) working their way out. But I have heard that omega 3 fatty acids are good for your joints ie. walnuts, flax, certain seaweeds.

Raw marinara with flax crakers
hummus with crudite
raw granola in bowls for munching
everybody likes a smoothy so thick you think it is a milkshake
date/nut/coconut treats
raw brownies or cookies
raw almond butter on toasted sprouted bread (for nonraw) with banana

It has been a while since my last post. I have been noticing some strange stuff. I have been so emotional about animals lately. I can barely drive my car since I am afraid of running something over. the chipmunks and baby birds seem to be darting everywhere. Plus on my way home from work at 9:00pm after a rain, there had to be hundreds of toads on the road. EVERYWHERE. I tried like crazy to

As everything in my poor garden is drying up due to no rain I notice that the elderberries are plentiful. Can you eat these raw and what do you do with them? I have only heard of elderberry jelly and i think it has a pound of sugar in it. Anyone know?

Ihad a great weekend camping. The stress relief I needed. But had too many things I should not have. I have to say that I am noticing things that I had read but thought were just crazy. For example, alot of cooked foods do not taste good anymore. I had some vegan Ice Cream and a soy hamburger with all the fixings(I know but I was hungry and my husband is an ice cream addict) and It tasted t

Thanks earthangel for all your encouragment. I felt like I was losing all motivation these past days. I don't know why, but I felt like this is hard, and is it worth it, and I might never eat sunday pancakes again. But funny thing is I came home tonight and made a raw dinner after eating raw all day. And I was satisfied. I thought for sure I would get home and make pasta. Maybe I am having al

All I can say about Saturday was, oh boy. Let's just say it started ok but ended with being at a mexican Resturant. I find that it is much easier to eat raw during the work week when I am structured with packing my food, but a day off and I am off the wagon. But maybe this was a good thing cause I was having bad headaches and skin problems which I think was detox. Now back to raw and feeling

I have been commenting for years how a healthy lifstyle is more expensive. I live in western PA where we get 3 months of lower cost fruits and veg, then everything gets shipped in and with the price of fuel the costs are even higher(carbon wise also). My hand cart of good stuff is the same price as the push cart in front of me at the checkout filled with processed breakfast,lunch and dinner. B

I did very well yesterday,but it was my 12th day of working in 13 days and have had to put up with some real crap there, and i had a little fight with the hubby so I though I would have some wine. Well two glasses went down ok then I got a monster headache and upset stomach. Who knew something I used to enjoy would attack me like that. I was sick most of the night so I took an advil (I hated t

hello everyone. I have been reading along before I joined and you all make it look so easy. I have been vegetarian since I was 4 when I found out the cows on our farm I would play with were the next nights meal. Then in my 20's (I am a personal trainer) I did figure competitons and beleived that I needed PROTEIN. So I ate lettuce and chicken 5 times a day and exercises 3 hrs. When I stopped wh
