Day 6 for me and I'm still hanging in there.

It is so nice to see the fat melting away at about 1 1/2 to 2 lbs a day! I have experienced another blessing along with this fast and that is that...

Thanks so much, Rawmom! That's nice to know from someone who has had experience at this. I feel fine, just a little hungry and dizzy sometimes. I have a lot to be doing other than lying down! I'm...

Hi everybody!

I have a question. I read that it is best to rest completely while water fasting so the body has a chance to rid itself of toxins and repair. My question is... it that really...

Hi!

I started a water only fast on Sunday. This is day two for me. I am hoping to do this fast to "completion" although I know that it will be a one day at a time thing. I am happy to find this...

Thank you so much for sharing these thoughts! I will try them.

Wow Mr Raw! Your pictures are amazing! Thanks so much for posting. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and I have really enjoyed seeing a peak into your sprouting setup.

I think I will...

Hmmmm.... it's interesting what you folks have been saying about losing weight and counting calories. I so much want to loose these extra pounds I am carrying around. I have been counting calories...

Hi everyone!

Days one and two went well. Last night I wanted something white, puffy, salty, crunchy, and cooked (you know what I mean!) :drool:... but instead I spritzed a little water on some...

Hello everyone!

I am sipping a delicious banana, pineapple smoothie for breakfast this morning. Yum!

Best wishes to everyone this month as we work toward making better choices in our eating...

We are south of Jackson. Close to the Mississippi boarder.

Great idea to check for farmer's markets! I just found one in the town we are going to! Thanks!
It's only a 5 hour trip by car and then...

I'm in!

We have been slowly easing into the raw food lifestyle. One or two days a week we have eaten something cooked. It is amazing how heavy and bloated we feel after eating cooked food!

We...

I kept my new batch of wheatgrass in the oven for 3 days. No mold that I could see this time. Unfortunately the flies found it there though.

I have only been using water and spraying it with a...

I put my new tray of wheat sprouts in the oven! It's a nice dark place for them to start. So far (16 hrs.) no mold. That's nice. I usually have mold by now if they are covered.

I think I will...

Thanks for the reply DebB.

I am not using soil. Just rinsing with water.

My husband and I came up with a plan to make a hanging cover for the wheatgrass. That should keep any little critters...

Okay. Here is what is happening.

I grew some wheatgrass in the house in my new Tribest Wheatgrass Grower. It was fun and worked great. The only problem I had was fruit flies. They really seem to...

Welcome! I am fairly new here too and doing this challenge. My first week was really difficult and I was off more than on. But now I really am NOT interested in cooked food! This is amazing! The...

Thanks Streetsurfer. I'll try that.

I didn't for these. We have them in a plastic bucket with a lid. That is really why I am so amazed that they are still sprouting! I've just started sprouting and I think I will store the new seeds...

I have a beautiful batch of mung bean sprouts ready this morning! I heard that they grow best under pressure so I tried it in a steamer. I put the soaked seeds in the steamer, placed a small plate on...

I am sooo happy to have found this thread! YES! I CARE! I am just beginning to sprout and this is such a valuable resource to me. :throwhearts:

I have purchased my organic seeds and sprouted some...

This is an encouraging thread. Thank you all for posting. I'm not alone out here!

B. Sprouted oats, sprouted sunflower seeds, banana, blueberries
L. Marinated salad (mung and alfalfa sprouts, carrot, corn, olive oil, salt, sweetener, lemon juice and some herbs). That tastes like...

While I was waiting for the month to start I got busy and sprouted lots of seeds and some mung beans. Today I started some peas, lentils, and adzuki.

Breakfast was our first experience with...

So nice to hear of your successes! Congratulations on your weight loss!

Unfortunately, I have REALLY gone off, so I had to drop out of this challenge. But with the things I am learning about raw,...

Thank you everyone for your posts! Wow! I have so much to learn....

I appreciate that no one has gotten "heated" in the discussions on this thread. I realize there are a lot of differing ideas,...
