The August 30-Days 100% Raw Challenge 2008 Archives

[Rawkinlocs]

We're coming up on August!

If you're ready to commit to 30 days of raw eatin' for the month of August, just check in right here!


Then, when August arrives, a brand new 30-Day Challenge will commence!

Please be sure to read the rules for the challenge if you are new to the forum and/or the 30-day raw challenge. Just a quick reminder, the purpose and main goal is to eat ALL RAW for 30 days. Sometimes you may slip, sometimes you may consciously decide to incorporate a little bit of cooked food...all your personal choice BUT...we do NOT discuss cooked food, even slip ups here in the challenge threads. That is best for your journal/blog if you have one.

I'm IN! It's been a rough summer so far and it's time to refocus. I've been ramping up my raw intake over the past two weeks. I've been lurking around the July 30 day challenge (I even made the "Ritz Crackers" you all have been talking about) . So ... YES, YES, YES I'm in!

Blessings,
Heather

I'll be here=)

I'd just like to say that if you join up, don't drop out if you mess up. If you do have a slip up, it's ok, just come right back to us. True, you aren't allowed to tell us about it, just tell us what you are going to do from there on out=)

There couldn't be a better month for going raw. The farmer's markets are so bountiful, this is a great month to feast on healthy food!=)

I'll be participating in the 30 day challenge. I've been raw for about a week now but I am looking forward to the challenge of making it stick!

I am in! Been doing high raw for the last week in preparation! Looking forward to it all!
I will be turning 40 the end of September and I want to live the next 40 without the symptoms I have had for the last 40....

So here I go!.....

I started my own challenge on the 28 of July :) in order to generate more energy to survive boxing workouts. And at 31 I knew it would be hard to go from sedentary to such a strenuous workout. I am blogging the whole experience.

Good luck to everyone

Hello!

This will be my first 30 day challenge ever, and I need all the support I can get! I have attempted to go raw many times in the past, only to pull out over and over again after a week or two. There are so many reasons why I want to do this, mainly to just finish something that I started that has great importance to me. I do have Alissa's awesome book and her DVD's...but I think I'm going to keep this as simple as possible with salads and fruit, nuts...etc.

I'm looking forward to posting with you all month:)

See you all on Friday!

I know this is my second post here ( I love to lurk..), but I'm IN! I definitely need the motivation!

I started yesterday, but it makes no difference... ;)

I did so well earlier this year and felt amazing!! I'm ready to get back on the wagon and reap the benefits of RAW!! May we all stay motivated!!
