    My friend, Mrsalf97, has been raw for 2 weeks. She doesn't have internet right now and wanted me to ask a question.

    When will she start feeling positive results?

    I know that results vary from person to person, however, before going 100% she was very high raw.

    TIA

  2. Young Coconuts?

    About 2 weeks ago I bought 4 young coconuts. In all 4 the water was pink! I threw them out because a Google search lead me to believe that they were bad.

    I bought 5 more yesterday hoping they were good. The first one opened had pink water. This is becoming a trend.

    Does the pink water mean that the coconut is bad? If so, I'm not going to buy anymore of these delicious treats.

    I haven't been 100%, I'd say 98% yesterday and today. I've lost 3 lbs already! I know if I start exercising it'll come off more. I'm not looking to drop too much too fast, though. I know that's not the way to go and just keep a steady pace. But why did I allow that tiny bit of cooked food in my body just now? I'm already tired! I can feel crankiness seeping in. *sigh* No more. I just can't feel like this any longer. It's not fair to me or my family.

    I'm down 2.6 pounds! I was certain I had gained some weight because of all the avocados and salt yesterday. I didn't eat a lot of salt, but had more than I usually do. WOOT!

    I need to take a before picture and post monthly pics.

    Last night before bed, I made a pitcher of green smoothie. My DH usually takes a big glass of it to drink on his drive to work. He forgot his today! Looks like I'll be drinking the whole pitcher by myself. Thankfully it tastes great! ...

    Today is the beginning of Day 2 of being RAW. Yesterday I ate 1 apricot, 1/2 of an apple, big glass of green smoothie, a few bites of guacamole with carrots, a few bites of cantaloupe, tried a tiny piece of papaya which tasted horrible! Maybe it wasn't ripe? and a few bites of mixed greens salad with cucumbers, 4 grape tomatoes & guacamole.

    Today I've had 5 HUGE strawberries, some green smoothie, 3 stalks of celery dipped in guacamole, 1 Creole tomato sliced and topped with ...
