I didn't have what I thought I would today. I instead made a smoothie with about 10oz cabbage (weighing my greens makes me realize how little I was using prior to doing the weighing! I cannot believe how much 1lb of weighed out greens actually is! I have to use an enormous serving platter for my salads now! , 1 3/4lbs bananas, and a scoop of chia seeds! YUM!

I am with Brian (raw1228) - I started working out and played a lot of sports in school. As I got older (hs) I started restricted my foods (first signs of eating disorder) while I was still working out like crazy and involved with sports. I instinctively knew that I didn't want to eat meat, however, was not given the choice of what to eat in my house growing up ("you will eat what the rest

For some crazy reason I am into weighing my food (like strwberries) and plugging it into fitday to see all of the incredible vitamins I am getting. I love seeing the pie chart and obviously am very visual...obsessive....compulsive....over-the-top....maybe...yes.

184. Re: Ease my mind?
The worm wasn't in my smoothie - it was crawling around the sink when I was drinking the smoothie. But, I started thinking crazily - "oh god, there probably was one in my greens, how well did I wash them, did I get all the worms off...." etc. It was just a moment, although, I am not sure I can go back to that cabbage!!! I think it will be fine actually as long as I wash the leaves tho

This sounds wonderful to me - regardless of what the organ does or did outside of the body, the part that resonates is that he had a complete turn around after changing his diet and drinking a good amount of wheatgrass!!

This is where I am at LaV....hoping it all changes and the dams break.
I am so comforted by what you wrote, and feel happy that you are no longer in pain. Totally amazing story. Out of curiousity, was it back pain? Regardless, a very powerful transaction of energy for sure.

191. Ease my mind?
This is going to sound really crazy...in fact, it IS.
But, this am, I washed my cabbage, made my smoothie, and then found a worm (which is usually no big deal, I am always a huge bug lover, just not in my food) that was clear mostly excpet for the greens it had been consuming - I could see in it. It was pretty gross and I starting thinking about consuming it accidentally and how it looked like

Phantom,
I am so glad you posted this! I applaud you for sitting through your feelings, and I guess the reason I am so glad you posted is because I feel that it is coming for me! I await it with some fear and anxiety, but to know that you are now on the other side looking back with wider eyes and a calmer mind relaxes me a bit. I have numbed my feelings with food for years, and more years on

Hey Claire!
I will be back on here tomorrow, going at it full force again. How are things on your end? I had stopped tracking my food too, going to try one of the other places people have mentioned on one of the other threads - fitday.com or something else. I have been using nutridiary and not really that thrilled with it.
Oh - you use fitday! Do you like it?

195. Re: What happened?!
The discussion about food/emotions/feelings really hits home for me. I have a (now) four year old who was pretty reserved and not overly outgoing as a toddler. When he was two-three, we would go to birthday parties and he would be the ONLY one not eating the crap they were serving. It got to the point where I felt like it was damaging to him socially and eventually I allowed him to partake in

198. The Waring Pro
Does anyone have it? The "professional" citrus juicer? I just got one and not sure I am even going to open it - I had a GC to Bed, Bath and Beyond and so I used it to get this juicer. I am always juicing orange juice for the kids with my other juicer (cheap target/walmart juicer), but thought this might produce better quality juice. Any comments?

A-HA! I have been thinking about that David. I think about that all the time actually.

204. What happened?!
Okay, so I have been doing a pretty loose form of 80-10-10 (eating a blended head of lettuce/greens and a bunch of bananas for breakfast, about 2lbs of some fruit for lunch, and then a salad of sorts for dinner.) for about a week. I went strictly raw for about 5 days and really felt nothing! I didn't have any difference in the way that I felt overall than I would if I were eating SAD. I just f

Today was so great!! I ended up eating about 2lbs of pineapple throughout the am, at lunch I had the smoothie with 8oz greens, almost 2lbs of bananas. It was so filling, and very satisfying. I loved it. At dinner I was hungry for food, but not ravished. I made a huge salad and chowed. I was a bit low still on my numbers, but holy cow, it is scary to think about what I was getting before (or.

I felt incredible yesterday, can you believe (I have ths SAME mindset you have about the "forbidden" fruit!) that we can eat all of this fruit and feel so good!? I was completely 100% amazed yesterday. (I was not 100% either, but darn close!) Dinner for me was rough.
