[raweatingmom]

Hi,
I started this way of eating yesterday. However there are 2 items that are cooked that I would like to include in my new diet, I want to include a small amount of brown rice, and pinto beans. Do you think that this will throw things off?
Thank you in advance to all who help me.

Congratulations on Starting the best way of eating for your body!!! That's GREAT!!!

You CAN eat anything that you want to, but this is a Raw Vegan Board in support of Alissa's book and DVD, so you won't find anyone here that will tell you to include that in your diet...

If you don't have Alissa's book, Living on Live Food, you should get it because she tells you in the book what is considered Raw and Living Foods. You'll really LOVE the book, trust me!!! ;)

Thank you. I am excited. I am trying to figure out what to eat. I love veggies and fruits. I have cut out all processed foods, and meats.

You're off to a FABULOUS start!!! Pop over to the thread in my Signature line and look at some food from Alissa's 1st book...

Here's the current thread of Alissa's 2nd book:

Really, getting the books help to take the guess work out of what to make for dinner! :)

While transitioning, do what works well for you. Some go raw overnight and stay that way, while others ease in slow. Key is listen to your body and to add in as many raw foods as possible and keep doing that...before you know it you are high or all raw!

I personally have had awesome success this way.

Yay! for you!!!
