Unfortunately I don't have the time to put my life on hold. I've always had to work, go to school, study, etc. This week however I've been on vacation, so I've only done about an hour or so of cardio...

I am doing an extended water fast at the moment and just finished The Fasting Path by Stephen Harrod Bruhner. It was very good, could have talked more about the physical part of a fast, but overall I...

Eating disorders are very seriously psychological problems, merely choosing to "chew and spit" a few times isn't going to cause one ;) If it does, she had these psychological problems all along.

You really just have to try it out in addition to your mostly raw lifestyle and see. Alcohol isn't the best thing for you, but some people are perfectly fine with having certain non-raw things in...

Because I want to. Simple.

I'd rather not "get used to" something that isn't natural for me.

I like drinking this much water, so that's what I do. Quit telling me how to live and worry about...

some spinach with pieces of an orange :)

I think it's okay to ask questions, even if they are considered "a waste of time" by others. I'm on the internet, believe me I have time to waste :D I'm not one of those "my time is so precious, I...

This.

I noticed some people saying they were "confessing" they still do these things. There is really no need for that. The beauty of life is that it is our own. We can do what we want with it....

Have some of you ever asked yourself, am I being too judgmental? Maybe you should ;)

I still do both. I don't see myself stopping any time soon :)

I got some mason jars from Ace Hardware and I just put the smoothies in there and make sure the lids are on tight. So I make a blender full and then take two of the mason jars with me to work and...

I used a regular blender for the past year up until a couple months ago when I got my vitamix. And I only got that because I decided I wanted to only have green smoothies for a while... and I needed...

Pineapple...hands down! :D

I have worked a 10-12 hour shift plus doing two work outs and still had a bunch of energy by the end of the day. It's definitely possible. Those green smoothies are amazing :) I find the more spinach...

I have done a number of fasts safely without relapsing. It can be done, but you just have to know yourself and the reasons why you want to do the fast, etc. I was able to stay grounded during my...

I have to agree that this is severe discrimination. Just because you choose to not eat the same foods your coworkers eat doesn't mean you aren't participating. I would pull the "you are violating my...

Plant-based diet is what I usually say :) When people hear raw usually they look at me weird because they think raw meat lol

I am starting day 4 of my fast tomorrow (Thursday) so I'll be right there with you!

I think you have to put it into the perspective that many people who have weight issues have an actual problem, an addiction like any other. After I lost my first 80 lbs it was very easy for me to...

It definitely depends on the person. But I've done quite a few water fasts and have always had loads of energy, especially after day 3 or 4 like others have said. I've always been able to workout for...

30 minutes of weights
1 hour and 30 minutes on the elliptical
30 minute run

:)

edit: just walked for TWO hours with my boyfriend.

i am soooo tired.

Thank you. I did have about half a cup this morning and feel fine, but I really don't think I want to push it. Will probably just end up throwing it out. It's not like I haven't wasted that much in...

This is sort of a general question about green smoothies... didn't want to start a whole new thread on them since this one is already here (don't mean to hijack your thread either OP :))

but i...

Self Inflicted Violence (cutting, burning, etc)

I haven't even been 100% raw for the past few months and can still see a significant difference when I run. I can run longer and faster and for a longer period of time. I am pretty sure its because...
