That sounds like much too little, imo. You need more food or your body will go into "starvation mode" and start hanging onto every speck of fat it can. Very counter-productive for weight loss, imo....

I'm very new to raw, but I'll gladly share what I know...

1. Can I manage a raw food diet without having to cook? Or would I still need a stove/oven? I still use my stove. It's such a handy place...

The other night, I stuffed avocado halves with nut pate and ate it. So good.

Welcome back to raw and happy birthday next week. I'm sorry that you're dealing with the things you're dealing with. Sometimes it seems our bodies really have harsh ways of putting their foot down...

*nods and drools ferociously*


Somehow, I believe that...

Sweet love of raw taco happiness, I am SO making this!

Thanks!

Roll out? :eek:

Not "stand there with a spoon and eat every last bit of it"?



I detect problems with this recipe already (lol).

Oh my goodness... :eek:

One of my doctors once told me that it's because the sweetness in the honey makes saliva glands work which helps keep the throat moist. Not sure if he was pulling my leg or not, but that's what he...

Yay! Another addic-- erm, green smoothie fan. :D

I say you should eat normally, exercise as usual (maybe upping some cardio wouldn't be bad), don't try to lose muscle along with fat and let your body become what it wants to.

And I don't know...

That's what I've been doing lately, too - shop for the sales and figure out what to do with it later.

My husband is non-raw and barely vegetarian so I'll try to make a salad that we can both share...

Can you eat winter squash raw? I know I should have asked before I bought them, but I have a delicata, blue kuri and a butternut squash sitting on my counter and the only thing I know to do with...

I tracked when I first started out in raw so I could see if I was getting what I needed. And I am - I'm doing more than fine nutritionally. But do I track all the time? Not in the least. I'd...

It does, believe it or not. :eek:

If you'd be able to maintain good temp control and maybe if the propane use wasn't too bad.

I say try it and report back.

There's a slight loss of nutrients in freezing, but it's very slight.

Because they taste like cardboard and we all know that cardboard = healthy. :p

Recipes, please?

My husband knows why I'm doing it and he's very impressed with the results so far. Everyone else just thinks I'm strange - but they've thought that no matter what, so I'm not concerned. :D

I talked to a friend of mine who lives in NL and this is what I was told:

The health food stores might be able to have things like beet tops and swiss chard (check the alternative health stores,...

MMMMMM... I know what I'm having for lunch tomorrow.... :p <- that's me, licking my lips.

That's what I made when I made my first batch of kale chips - although not intentionally. I'm trying to figure out what I did so I can do that again. :eek:

If you want to get into things like raw bread, crackers, leathers and the like, a dehydrator is a must. If not then it's not needed at all. It all depends on your uncooking style and what works...

If a recipe calls for one sort of nuts, can I sub with another kind or will that completely ruin the recipe?

I'm going grocery shopping next week, but wanted to ask you all what you think I should get?

What are your favorite staples to keep on hand?
