Raw Angel Mom, unfortunately, I can't afford to go to Costa Rica :). But I did decide to do this retreat so I leave tomorrow morning and will be there for a week. I'm going to keep an open mind and...

Hi everyone,
I've been out of the loop of raw for a while, though I've been keeping to vegan food for the last few years. I'm staying right now with my parents in Israel and my mom is really into...

DD, like you, I've also tried multiple times and failed and have just gotten back on raw for the past 4 days. One thing that I'm finding really helps my sugar cravings is green smoothies. I know a...

Not sure if this is the right place to put this...

I've tried to go raw several times and have failed each time. I am now taking a different approach than I have in the past with integrating 3...

Thanks, everyone. I had no clue that there is anything like a mango splitter - what will the think of next!

Hi all,
I've been mango-crazy lately and I eat several a day. I'm wondering if there's a good way to chop them up that isn't as messy as I make it. I peel the mango with a knife, then lop off the...

Hi all,
Doing things a little differently this time around. Focusing on eating fruits and green smoothies throughout the day, then a big salad with some raw fat and protein at dinner and some dried...

I'm trying to get greens in every day, but I'm still trying to get used to the bitterness of some greens. I adore big salads with romaine lettuce but I mix romaine and other greens now (usually kale...

All these cat pictures make me want to own a cat again :(. I wish I had a picture of Sylvester, the cat we had about 10 years ago - he was a long-haired black cat and gorgeous (and don't think he...

Hi all,
I had a horrible Fri and Sat because of stress but I am back on track today. Lots of work to do (online instructors are always busy during the weekends...)

Today's Menu:
Green smoothie...

I'm in... I'm doin another raw challenge, but I'll be checking in here as well to get inspiration and motivation :D.

I am in a similar boat. I have an MA in English and although I'm blessed to be teaching part-time right now, I'm looking for more options because I have a chance to move into a wonderful apartment in...

Hi All,
Another question for you :D.

I just ordered a 5 lb bag of raw carob powder online. I usually just keep my carob powder sealed tight in a ziplock bag in my pantry (cool, dark place) but I...

Hi All,
I've been trying to get more greens in, so I've been making a salad of greens every day. I've been using spinach mainly, but I want to start using other varieties, especially collard greens,...

Hi Carly,
I've never done the Master Cleanse but from what I know about it, it's a sort of fast where you drink a certain amount of cleansing lemonade (made primarily of fresh lemons, maple syrup,...

It is ironic, isn't it, that "normal" food these days is considered everything that logically and rightly our bodies reject - fatty meats, dairy, processed food, junk foods. Yet, when we try to eat...

Awesome, Carly! I'm also starting tomorrow. I'm doing a 21 day plan that's outlined in the book "The Raw Revolution Diet". It's a bit more restrictive (unlimited raw veggies, fruits, sprouted legume,...

Hi all,
I just returned from a trip to the Bay Area and I got a chance to finally see what gourmet raw food is like! My brother lives a few blocks away from Cafe Gratitude and he agreed to take me...

Had an extremely rough day! Had my first intense cravings since starting this challenge. The morning and afternoon began well, but towards the afternoon I started to really crave cooked food - not...

Hi, all! Well, I didn't do well yesterday evening but today I have a new approach. Someone posted on these boards a link to a talk with Paul Nison on the web and I sat watching that yesterday and it...

Glad everyone is posting their menus - it really helps.

Today I seem to feel like more savory than sweet, so although I've had a lot of fruit up until now (a lot for me...), I'm heading more...

Well, yesterday did not go well :(. I woke up with a migraine and basically spent all day trying to fight it off with pills and sleep (the headache wasn't because of detox, by the way - I've been...

Great to see so many people - I could sure use the motivation!

I'm in for April and so excited about it! I want to make it work this time.

Menu for today:
Melon (haven't had fresh melon in a...

I'm just curious as to what the experience of others has been in terms of weekly grocery bills going raw. I'm about to start the April 30 day challenge, so I went shopping yesterday and really...

I was scanning the March challenge posts and was a little alarmed to see so few posts! But it looks like there are some survivors which is great.

I'm totally in for April - I've been preparing...
