751. Re: 100% vs high raw
I found when I had a slip up about 6 months into transitioning, when I was hitting around 90% having cooked food completly messed me up, physically and emotionally I was a wreck.
So being 100% is important for me and critical for my health (former crohns sufferer)
Guess you have to find what works for you
For some people allowing some cooked at the weekends works fine, for others its a

Thanks for the help
basically stick to instinct and see how I go.
I just cant get over that threshold without making myself sick, so I will stick to whats comfortable for me for now and keep an eye on the weight.
Thanks again

The juice fast continues
Today
300ml Coconut Water
Green juice- mango, kale, chard, orange
Some pineapple juice
1 Litre water
A total of 1 litre juice
Not a lot calorifically but I figure I have to forget that and do what feels right right now. which is this.
Sounds like everyone is experiencing major breakthrough, emotionally and physically- its rough but its worthwhile

Apple juice equal : 300ml

Right after doing a fair bit of reading I am embarking on a juice feast.
I have read a lot about different peoples views on calories etc. This isnt a huge concearn to me but I am trying to stick to 80 10 10 amounts. Loosly.
I have been crunching my juice intake for the past few days just to get an idea
It seems to be coming in at between 400-600 cal tops

Just raw eating
mono eating, fruits and vegetables
without nuts, without fancy gourmet etc. Will be enough yes. Detox will be rough but worthwhile.

Thank you guys, makes me feel a bit better!!
Today has been a bit better so I feel back on track. Thing with me is any sort of slip up tends to cause a chaos or an ED trigger. Which has been problamatic the past two days. Feel like I am out the other side now though.
Being back to a routine after being away a few days I think will help a treat!
Thanks you all for the support

I find now I hardly ever need any, wheras before I couldnt go any period of time without it.
Lush do a range of solid deodarants if you feel you need something.
Or theres the crystal
Personally prefer not to, use essential oils if I feel the need to smell of something!!

Thank you for the response,
would having juicy fruits slow down the cleanse?
I really cant balance what is worse, to have the juicy fruits or to transport juice with possibly a three hour wait until being consumed- nutrients lost etc.?

Just wanted to say best of luck to you, raw eating can deffinately help but the core issue has to be dealt with first. For sure.
I have dealt with anorexia for nearly 20 years now and its a daily struggle, but I finally feel some free-dom and release from it through therapy and adopting a 100% raw lifestyle.
Can be hard not to just replace one way of disordered thinking with another. Its al

778. Re: transition
Agreed with what David said
I have been healed from crohns through raw. Mono eating has been the key for myself. But we are all different.
Worthwhile reading some literature on ibs, colitis and raw/ theres plenty of it
Hope you find the right practitioner for you

I use water the majority of the time, I use a olive oil soap occasionally and homemade lemon soap if I have an important show or something, but I find I dont really need it anymore, dont smell like I used to when I was vegetarian!!
Far as hair, I rinse it .. but genrally wash once a week sometimes once every two. A good rinse and coconut oil, magic!!
