Hey everyone! I haven't been around the forums much but I've been all raw since the first :). My meals have mostly been smoothies, salads and fruit. I've got some raw nori sheets so I've done a...

Mikes, I like your energy! It sounds like you are taking great care of yourself :)

I'm in! Actually starting a 365 day raw challenge on the first - friends suggested I blog about it so that should be interesting! I've been in and out of this community for the past few years,...

Hey PunkRotten,
What kind of gadgets are you working with? I'm guessing you have a blender and a juicer - what about a dehydrator or spiralizer or anything else? You certainly don't need those...

RE: The Vert jamming up, we just juice things sort of mixed up - instead of doing all of the celery at the same time, for example. We also cut them up into small pieces to make the fibers shorter.

Yum, thanks for sharing!

Hey guys! I haven't been on here much but I wanted to share about my Thanksgiving - I made Alissa's raw stuffing, kale chips and sunny pate to share with family - everyone loved it! My dad thought...

I excercise while fasting- both Bikram yoga, which is a killer, and treadmill stuff. I usually feel great, sometimes weak but usually feel great. Only one way to find out if it works for you!

Nuts and avocados. Any raw food eaten in greater portion will help you gain weight - but you can focus on high calorie foods as well.

Another way to gain weight is to do some strength training...

Revvell, the reason I am going to her is that I have a chronic knee inflammation issue that has not subsided since going raw - though it did on a previous juice fast. So I'm looking for some...

Hey everyone,
I met with a nutritionist the other day and she asked me if I try to get "complete proteins". I will admit that I got fairly defensive right off the bat, as she jumped into a protein...

Sorry you're having such a rough time EscapeArtist! Remember to have some compassion for yourself. You are doing the best you can, and, you will be able to do better.

I just ordered Alissa's...

I was just looking at getting some nori sheets tomorrow! You just sealed the deal for me!

Good morning (or afternoon or evening!) I just had a banana and some delicious strawberries for breakfast. I've been craving them for a few days and made it to the store this morning.

I have...

I really agree with escapeartist. The moment I read your post I thought "compassion for yourself!" If you beat yourself up about it nothing changes except your mood - we often think that beating...

Hello everyone! I treated myself to a raw meal last night prepared at a restaurant (Chaco Canyon in West Seattle) and it was delicious. Raw enchiladas. Earlier in the day I had a bunch of fruit...

Yep - I'm planning on bringing some things to share with people but also just some things for myself to eat. I think I'll bring sunny pate with jicima for everyone to share, and just be a pig and...

It's Alissa's recipe, if you google it it's the first thing that comes up for me. Or, of course, check her book :)

I like rawvegansource.com. I'm lucky because they are local, but you can order online and they are very trustworthy.

I'm glad you've gotten some support on here. Sounds like you've really gotten some answers from yourself too.

How is everyone doing on the challenge? So far so good for me - I'm already waking...

I also drink as much juice as I want when juice fasting. I found it works better for me when I have a variety of juices to choose from. And as the previous poster stated, I drank less as time...

Increased energy, improved mood, increased mental clarity. General increased feeling of well being.

Those are the top of my list!

Day 2! How are you all doing? I had a banana, apple and pear for breakfast. Delicious! Looking forward to a big salad for lunch today with some more fruit and maybe some flax crackers.

Hope...

You've got all the right stuff! Choose a green, a frozen berry, banana and coconut oil if you've got it! Yum!

Hello everyone! I've had two green juices today for brekkies, just had a salad with mixed greens and avocado with some flax crackers also for lunch. I have jicima with me to munch on later in the...
