    I've gotten back to raw and I remember you from before when I started my journey. Sounds like a great start to 2011 in NC!

    I have to tell myself the same thing. I'm not going to TRY. I am going to DO it. This is all new for me, but if I feel halfway as good as all these people on the forum and in the book, it will be worth it to me. I am sick of feeling cruddy...not living, I guess.
    Since I am totally new to this, what is chia seed pudding? Or do you mix the blueberries and chia seeds and tea and stevia to make a pudding?

    Have a wonderful day today!

    Hello!

    I love avo's with lemon, salt and cumin. Seems like I can't get enough cumin, I love that stuff. You eat your avo's the same way as me. I love to spice them up.
    Your smoothie does sound yummy. It is a pain to pit all those cherries but they make good smoothies. I added cocao powder to my cherry smoothie once and it was so good! Like the chocolate cherry bomb smoothie.

    ooh - I have blueberries, cherries and bananas at home right now...I'm going to try your smoothie! I've never put cherries in before. I don't have spinach at the moment, but I do have some romaine.

    Sorry to hear about your uncle! Take care :)

    I hope that your dinner goes well! I think if you have a smoothie before dinner, it will help you to stay focused and not eat the food that's there. I read an article about Randy Jackson today and how he has managed to keep off 100 pounds. It said that he doesn't eat at family gatherings. He's not RAW, but I thought that was a good thinng to do. On another note, I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle! I pray that he will get better and your family will continue to endure and support each other during this difficult time!

    yum - fresh cranberry/apple or grape juice sounds divine! I hate the crap at the store that they try to pass for juice.

    hmm...I don't have a juicer, but I wonder if I could blend it and then strain it. I'm not sure what I would do with all the pulp though...maybe it would be sort of like applesauce. Has anyone tried doing that? Any tips?

    Glad to hear your thyroid is doing better - great news!

    yummy your meals look tempting, i should try something different too. How is the banana ice cream done? do you just top it with pecans and drizzle with maple syrup?

    yes! Yes! I have a bag of chia seeds in the cabinet, but I have no idea what to do with them! LOL!
