Hi everyone!
I'm off to Kenosha to do some care taking with my Aunts today. :)

We're bracing for a hot and muggy week in Chi Town. Soooo I'm happy to be having light fare on the menu:

Saxmaam I've been at the raw food WOL for about a year and a half or so. This is the first time I've been able to stick with it and feel comfortable about it. I feel a lot like what hillarylouise...

I almost forgot - Love the Tutti Fruitti colors Oceanee! Very cool! http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l417/nshepardson/dan-men.gif

I agree saxmaam who said - "I'll jump in and say that the challenge and the daily posting have been totally helpful in keeping me on the raw plan this month."

The support from this board helped...

Thanks everyone for reenforcing the whole sleep thing. As a kid I always wanted to stay up late! I guess it's the fear of missing out on something . . . . I'd rather "miss" a few pounds! :D

Sooo...

Emma-Liza said yesterday - oceanee--I agree about the sense of abundance in this way of eating. And the beauty of everything, my plates of food are so intensely colorful, I want to show them to...

It has been so hot and humid in our neighborhood! http://i330.photobucket.com/albums/l417/nshepardson/sweating.gif it's a blessing to be raw, feeling so much lighter and less...

Hey fellow rawbies!


What kind of two week fast are you doing Zuri? My DH is doing really well on his low-fat diet. He's really into simple things and is trying a lot of the raw dishes I've...

saxmaam - I'm not doing raw for the first time, been trying for about a year and half now. This time is different for me. It doesn't seem difficult, it's fun, exciting to watch the changes, and...

Very nice Thick, to be able to pick your own veggies locally. We have a farm not too far from where we live, I'm planning to save up for next year so we can do the same thing!

I used to be really...

Congratulations to you hillarylouise! I have about 8 more pounds to go . . .

Absolutely you can eat raw corn, right off the cob! I was reluctant at first too, but it is so Yummy this way. Anyway, off the top of my head, this is what I put in my salad:

4 ears of corn -...

Hi everyone!

It feels so good to have all this energy when it is hot & muggy outside. There was a time when I would be slogging through the "soupy mess" with a huge sinus headache to boot. Not...

Hi all,

We had the best weather for the 4th of July ever In Chicago. I spent a lot of time outdoors, riding my bike, walking, watching my friends in the parade. The rest of the time I was...

Still trying to figure out how to do this quote thing right. :confused:

I get what you're saying Lightspirited1. It kind of clicked in this time for me too. Instead of grabbing a bag of chips,...

Count me in!

This has been a really good prelude to the July challenge for me. Coming to this forum everyday, being accountable for what I eat has helped me a lot.

Plan on having:
green smoothie

Took about a quarter of my watermelon, added a couple stalks of celery and a lime, peeled - popped it in the vitamix - 30 seconds later, the best breakfast drink ever. (copied this one from David...
