Just off 30 day Master Cleanse, looking to go back to raw

[miaculpa]

Hi there!

I just finished a 30 day MC and am on a 7 day juice fast to ramp up to raw eating. I was nearly 100 percent raw last year for 100 days, but fell off the wagon in July and gained a ton of weight back by eating omni hog-wild.

This looks like a great board!

HEY YOU!!! How is your raw going??

I've on the start of day 3 on the juicing, but have snuck in some dehydrated kale with only a minimum of windiness... however, I am detoxing HARD just from the juice. It feels good to chew on the dry kale leaves, tho'.

Yay! I am in it to win it witcha on the 100 percent raw! I am going back to high raw, even though I am still cooking for the eaters... their diets will improve as a result of me going raw, for sure. It did last time I was raw.

big HUGS!

Hey there MIA, my raw is going well. And I'm still dropping pounds. I believe I have finally shed my cooked body and the raw one is emerging. Feels great. My kale chips were horrid, lol! I ended up throwing them away, I believe I put too much oil on them before I dehydrated them. I can't take too much oil anymore. I'm so glad you're doing 100%...we've come a long way. Woo-hoo. Best wishes to you.

You're still dropping??! I gained 3 lbs!

What are you eating thus far... do tell!

I love my chips. The Goddess chip recipe is awesome (on the recipe page of this forum) but I am not eating them as much because I need to stay away from sesame while my face is broken out. I made some other ones that are so-so. I will be putting more in the dehydrator, maybe tomorrow. I want to try a massaged kale salad today.

You did the Master Cleanse for thirty days? That is amazing! I did it for ten days and thought that was tough. I have done juice feasts for twelve days and felt I could go longer but the green juices with flax/hemp/coconut oil supplements is MUCH easier than the Master Cleanse!!!

[miaculpa]

oh no, it took over 12 days for it to be easy for me. I've done them 10 days each 4 previous times and it was soooo hard.

Now, going back to eating is harder for me.

I'm having a lot of veggie gazpacho's...loving tomato, avocado, red pepper right now. And green juices. Some flax crackers with the mock salmon also that have kept me, ahem-cough, eliminating every 2-3 hours. LOL. I was up all night last night poo'ing. haha. Maybe that's why I'm not holding onto weight, I'm releasing it all in the toilet. Seriously though I'm drinking tons of water and juicing/blending my food.

[miaculpa]

Oh awesome... going is soooo important. I've been running to the toilet, but not as much as I should. I've rehearsals all week, so I have not been going as regularly. I've gained 3-4 lbs so far. I need to get my butt moving. I have also been using sea salt in things, which I believe is contributing to my weight rebound.

I suppose it will all even out in the end. I need to start blending more stuff. I haven't been home enough, cept to sleep, to give the ole vitamix any sort of workout.

Today I've vowed to up my water consumption. I'm on my second liter of the day...

[marylou]

Great job! I'm just starting the diet and good lord... I feel GREAT!

[miaculpa]

terrific, marylou!

I am on a 2 day mini fast (using MC) for today and tomorrow.

I always feel my best when I am high raw.

[Radiantly Raw]

Great to meet you!! :D Sounds like you are well on your way! The raw food lifestyle is about so much more than weight loss!! I hope you feel so wonderful you won't want to go back to the other way of life.;) Best wishes!!
