I'm getting so many great ideas - thank you!! today i was raw til about 5 pm and then started picking at the kids pasta and sauce - feel really full and tired now. the past 2 nights i have intended to eat salad for dinner with avacado and nuts and for some reason both nights i ate regular cooked dinner. the idea of salad was not appealing when it was time to eat. i think tomorrow i will eat s

Thanks guys for all the above responses - it did help. I guess I have been feeling like I have to be all raw from the start and that is probably not very realistic. Does your body go through any side effects when you eat cooked food after being raw for a while? Besides bloating, tiredness etc? I am shedding weight pretty quickly during the weeks i stay mostly raw, so that is good motivation f

Thnx to all for your input - this thread was the first i heard of fruitarian - thax for clarifying for me:-)

So does hurting the plant also have something to do with being fruitarian? I can see how your body would guide you to be fruitarian. I'm curious about the not hurting the plant idea - more info please. . .

just curious - why do people choose to become fruitarians? Greens are so incredibly nutritious and valuable - what is it that keeps you from eating them? don't get me wrong - i love fruit too - but if i didn't have fresh kale in my smothie every morning, i can tell you my energy level would be much lower. Truly just curious - not challenging:-)

Thansk Melissa!
I will take your advice and bring some of my own when necessary. I think it will be an adjustment, but I am willing and ready to make the necessary changes. If it means I eat a lot more salad and sneak my ouwn food onto my plate, then I will do it. I am not the kind of person who can just pass on dinner b/c everything is cooked. If I smell food and everyone around me is eatin

it is rather personal -18 is my fav #, but the frumpy part would embarrass my hubby if he knew I told everyone. let's just say it's a code word and it started when we were first dating and it stuck. still makes us smile.
i am definitely not frumpy - well maybe sometimes - but i try :-)
thanks for all your helpful advice - I am hooked on this site and will continue to use it as i begin my ra

I think I am trying to eat things that I know eventually I will no

I want to make crackers to help with my transition to raw foods - the local raw foods store sells them but not cheap. Any way can I use my oven on low heat?
Thanks!

Karen, how long have you been raw? I like the idea about filling up on salad. I can do that. I eat a ton of fruits and veggies everyday, and I love smoothies. When it comes to my kids, i have a one yr old and a four yr old. Neither one is real big on meat. Should I raise them vegetarian or allow meat once in awhile. I believe it is healthier for them to avoid meat and animal products, but

Thanks Aquadecoco - very helpful advice on both of my entries. I need to be more patient - not my strong point. Is there a way I can make dehydrated crackers in the oven? I do not own a dehydrator yet. Thanks!

I am committed to changing to a raw diet - I would like to eventually be 100% raw - but how do you do this when you go to family dinners alot and get invited to friends houses for dinner - do you show up with your own food and say no thanks to the meal they spent hours preparing for you? I also have 2 small kids and a hungry, meat eating hubby - he is very supportive, but still wants cooked foo

Hi All,
I'm new to this website and to the raw lifestyle. I started about 2 weeks ago and also experienced quick weight loss like Darren. I dropped about 7 pounds in the first 10 days. Yesterday went to a family party with lots of good italian food (homemade by grandma who is here from italy) and pastries - I ate a few servings of everything - couldn;'t stop myself. Today, the scale says I g
