Really Traceyraw? My Whole Foods has a whole menu of green smoothies and juices as well. Maybe write to their corporate offices to see if your Whole Foods is going rogue!! lol

try again with the green juice/smoothie without the non-raw stuff (bread, pb&j, etc.). Be ready with your meter. Test each hour after starting your drink. That way you will see exactly what is...

You are looking really good!!! Congrats!!!

Thanks for the code key, Raw Angel Mom. I never knew those. They are very helpful.

Some of the smaller chain stores like Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Mother's etc. are more accepting of visible tattoos and snacking. If one of those stores is in your area, or one like them, maybe you...

I too am a stress eater. Sometimes I crave what I once thought of as "comfort food" (mac and cheese, fried chicken, backed potatoes with everything, oatmeal) but I have adjusted to having new comfort...

I went to a raw restaurant nearby and ordered nachos. They used dehydrated buckwheat chip that were AMAZING. Maybe try those to see if they satisfy your craving. They don't taste like tostitos, but...

Thanks for all the celebration and ideas. Some people don't understand how happy I am...for a blender. It's ok. I knew you all would understand. Loved the pic Pilgrim. I am sooo stealing that. :)))

Sometimes they tell overweight people to go on very unhealthy diets like Atkins or Optifast, and if that doesn't work they move to surgery or medication. The medical community does not want to be...

You know, I think it would be great if food companies had to have honest labels. Instead of Nana Pudding it should be called "There isn't a trace of Banana in this pudding" or "This pudding will make...

I am typing this while drinking a delicious mix of spinach, kale, tomatoes, lemon, celery, carrots, garlic, cabbage, parsley, onion, red pepper, and serrano chili. Woohooo. I am so happy. I might be...

I am doing wonderfully, Mary Kay. Thanks for asking. I think that choosing to go raw was the best choice I have ever made. I am learning so much about my body. I haven't yet been able to eliminate...

Yea, I did get kind of off topic. lol I responded to her about smoothies because I am also diabetic, but I have no experience with juicing. I figured I would give her an option. Mary Kay, thanks for...

Setbacks happen!!! It's in the past. Learn what caused it so you can avoid in the future and move on. You have made an excellent choice in going raw. Let yourself make mistakes without giving up....

I'm interested to hear what you are saying about bananas as I had wondered if I would be able to have them because I thought they would be good to thicken a smoothie up. I'd be grateful if you could...

Hi there Iceshadow. I am also a diabetic. Before going raw I took 5 injections a day, 60 units of Levemir in the morning and again at night, 10-20 units of Novolog before every meal. My fasting blood...

I often turn to the forums for support as well. I am never disappointed. There are so many helpful, kind people with a wealth of knowledge and experience. I have only a little raw experience (7...

I think that you have a great attitude. If you are eating without regard to hunger or need, and you are feeling that this has become a road block on the way to your goals, then you are being...

Welcome :) I am 6 weeks in and 100% raw. I feel so much better. I find reading and posting help me stay on track. I wish you all the best. Congrats on making a great choice. :)

I am heading there tomorrow for lunch. I am so excited. Over the weekend I ate a Cafe Gratitude in Santa Cruz. It was so delicious I almost cried. I had "I am hearty". It was a pizza that made me...
