New and tired of food making me sick!!!

[Cristin]

Hello All,

Here I am once again wanting to make permanent changes as food is making me sick:( I just had a weekend where I ate food that may be normal to others, but to me, I ended up in bed depressed and feeling like I was in a food coma. I have suffered from Candida and it seems to be rearing it's ugly head again...as I almost feel drunk after eating.

I had a period of 30 days raw about 6 months ago and I had never felt better....so why did i not stay on the bandwagon? I fell off as I was eating too many gourmet raw foods and my tummy did not like that. I know now to start off more simple.

I am at a point of desperation here as I have to make a change for my health...I have to do 100% raw in order to not be swayed by cooked foods that will end up making me sick:(

So I am just looking for some support as I start this journey again...

Welcome, Cristin. :)

One thing to remember is that there's not a bandwagon - you are in this for yourself and nobody else...although we are here to support you and offer helping hands when needed. There are a few recipes that I really enjoy, but for the most part I tend to eat fairly simply, and you may do better just eating salads or veggies with maybe some zucchini hummus or spinach dip, or things like that.

Good luck. :)

Welcome back! I am new here myself and am currently doing a 10 day Master Cleanse which will end on August 29th, and I will be doing two days of orange juice and then starting the 30 day raw challenge on September 1st! I hope to see you around and the best of luck on going raw again. You can do it! It's all a state of mind and just know it's for your own benefit and health :)

I know how you feel Cristin. My body was telling me to cut the crap out and start eating right as well, which is why I'm going to go back to raw food.

Welcome back :)

I wish you everything you need to Stay RAW.............Welcome to MY World.

Thank you for all the warm welcomes:)

I know that this is the only way for me and I just have to remember how sick I get on cooked food and how I fall into a "food coma" so quickly. I am on day 3 and already feeling so much better!

Hi Cristin!

Don't be too hard on yourself. Many people have been through a similar experience, and it is never too late to start over.

Why not jump on the 30-day challenge?

So glad you joined us!
