Well its my last day raw.. day 30. *phew!*

Its been a really interesting experiment for me and ended up leading me on a unexpected path.

In total I lost about 13 pounds and my skin looks very...

Aw thanks! I just might do that! Then again I have Alissa's book and so many recipes I've found online I try something new nearly every day. :D

I will say he seemed okay with what I made for lunch...

Okay I should let this thread die BUT.. I'm just so proud to say THIS IS MY SEVENTH DAY RAW! *dance* :D

I was going to continue to sort of keep track of everything I was eating but after a few...

Aww.. I'm sorry about your daughter. Gosh I don't know what I'd do without my bananas! Not only do I use them in my green smoothies but the help ease my aching tummy if I have heartburn/etc. :(

As...

Okay I doubt any is interested in this BUT.. lol

I finished the day yesterday by having an avocado for dinner and a green smoothie. For this smoothie I used watermelon and spinach and it was...

Aw thanks... I just.. arg.. I have this knack for saying THE WRONG THING. *slaps forehead* I'll just be more careful about what I say in the future.. :o

I'm very sorry I mentioned it. :(

Thanks so much for the tips! I think, just for me and the hubby, I won't bother with the skins BUT for company.. definitely worth the effort. Especially since I want so much for one of my friends to...

I'm on my third day raw and I feel good.
I have to be honest I'm surprised at how well I feel in comparison to stories of people having tummy issues when first starting raw. I read stories about...

That's why it would mostly just be for special occasions like having company over.. that kind of thing. Trust me.. I'm far far too lazy to make that a daily chore. lol :rolleyes:

Also I'm not...

Ohhhh!! That's why! I only soaked them overnight. I tried rubbing them in a rough towel but that wasn't working. I would have scraped the skins off with my fingernails but dang.. 1 whole cup of...

I made some almond ricotta this afternoon for lunch. I soaked the almonds over night and then struggled to get my wimpy blender to break them down. It turned out very mild and nice.. it could have...

lol Well hopefully.. I won't have to.. ;)

*fingers crossed*

lol Well I haven't managed to do it yet with the recent batch I bought but I've done it enough times I thought it would be good to have some kind of fix for when and if it happens again. I just love...

rofl!

Okay okay...

Under ripe avocado.. so you thought it was ready but its not. Surely I'm not the only one who does this? lol I've been known to be overly eager about finally getting to indulge in my favorite food...

YES! I was thinking the same thing! Of course when I suggested it *chuckle* my Mother instantly reminded me of her dentures and how uncooked veggies would be too difficult to chew. (Geez.. used to be...

Thanks so much! :D

Well surprisingly my husband has grown interested and decided to try some of the food. This morning I had a green smoothie and for lunch I made he and I both some...

Thanks so much!!! :D

Its so nice there's this forum to talk about raw and ask questions and what not and I've found people to be so genuinely kind and helpful. :o

Some time ago I had popped onto the forum to ask about how to go raw on a budget. With my husband and I having an EXTREMELY limited budget at that time it just wasn't possible. (I know I know.. I can...

How do you know when your sprouts are done.. sprouting?

I've got a few lentils I've been sprouting and I'm not sure if their "done" yet. Now my Mother was a sprouter but this is my first time. (To...

rolfmao! :D

I can't find nor could I afford jicama or anything of those fancy veggie things (that I'd love to be able to try one day by the way) but I've found sweet potatoes to be great for making raw healthy...

I've been trying to eat easier to digest foods like fruits first and harder to digest foods like vegetables second. I'm afraid I'm not always that successful though.

Excellent! I'll make a list to hang in the spice cabinet... :D

Thanks!
