While I prefer yoga to almost anything else, I have had very good luck doing the Curves Gym workout. I lost 25 pounds just doing the workout a few years ago, then stopped, and put the weight back on...

2 collard green leaves w/sourkraut (sp?), mustard & raw cashew cheez
1 avocado
1 plum
1 raw coleslaw salad
1 small serving datenut torte

Thanks for the feedback, guys. Perhaps "gorging" is too strong a word. I just thought I read in Alissa's material and other raw food materials that it is best to eat all fruit prior to noon???
...

So I am on day 5 of 100% raw! I have been really, really good, except a couple days where I ate some organic triscuit-like crackers and raw goat cheese that were sitting around the house. I was...

Thanks Spicyfull. I think I figured it out, though!

:D

Everything you guys said makes such sense. I bet there are times when I could maybe eat more rich nut dishes, and then times when I can't. Likely there are probably people who lose a ton of weight...

Thanks for your contribution Rawkinlocs!;) I have read a lot of your postings!!!

To answer your question about how much I ate of the nut stuff:

1.Last night-just a small handful of fettucini...

Thanks so much for all of your feedback, guys!:D

It's so true that one must listen to their own body in this situation. While nuts and rich nutty items might be the bees knees for some, they made...

Thanks for the feedback, Lucy. I drink a lot of water.:D

Also, is it possible that I could get my fats from avocados and coconuts or other fruits/veggies instead of nuts? I LOVE those fats. But...

It's my first day 100% raw!!!

I had fruit for breakfast, which was great. Then for lunch, I have two small pieces of date nut torte and mock salmon pate rolled up in lettuce. The pate and date nut...

Hello there!

I think it could be menopause. I am a therapist and I see several women going through menopause and I hear very similar symptoms to what you are saying. It sounds quite hormonal, and...

Hello All!

I am making my raw meals from Alissa's book for the first time tonight, and I am very excited. I would like to start a raw journal with before and after pics and daily entries. How do I...

Thanks, Shayna. I do have Alissa's book. But it lists 8 recipes for the week, and says eat fruit in the morning. So, I just want to know if I am supposed to eat a recipe for lunch and dinner, or is...

I'm so sorry to hear about your grandma, Shayna.:(

Thanks for all of your feedback, everyone. Because Alissa doesn't give a day-by-day of exactly what & how to eat, I guess I am just going to...

Um, how do you get those quotes and goals in pretty colored writing at the bottom of your post, guys??? I would like to list weight and goals and such. Let me know...:)

I wonder if because we're short, it is different? I have eaten diets that would cause any of my taller friends to lose massive amounts of weight, and noticed very little weight loss. What a quandary,...

Hi there! My name is Sarah, and I am a 34YO therapist and artist living in Los Angeles. I discovered the raw diet through another author's book about a year ago, but gave up on it because it was so...

Thanks for the info! I will try the honey & sugar mask...

Acne starting to clear up after 3rd week of 50-80% raw! I will try the steaming and bentonite clay as well. Thanks for the tip:)

I am looking forward to seeing if doing a totally raw diet will clear the acne. So far, I am about 50-80% raw daily and there has been no change at all in my adult acne (I'm 34-I've had acne for 10...
