Give it to me Raw

Right now, as I feel very tired, linguistically tangled, and rushed with the urgency of a mother overworried (well, i appreciate the concern i guess but ahhhh!!!) about my various likely nutritional deficiencies, I have a question!!

I won't bother to edit this post even though the writer in me is like OMG.
Ok:

Stable blood sugar:
My mission is to conquer fruit CRAVINGS (different than my body's real need for the vital energies of the fruit) and find a way to transition to a living foods diet without eating too much cooked whole grains... I find that in balance they are great and I feel much better with them... but too much brings me back to a very low energy state...
And i need energy to tackle other health challenges such as a parasitical invasion and sluggish bipolar liver!

Help!

Get on the low glycemic fruits like cucumber, grapefruit, tomato, to balance the sweet ones! And make sure you get your greens.

i use avocado and greens in a smoothie ...avocado is one of the best fruits for balancing blood sugar and gives you that nice satisfied feelin (:

I am transitioning to a living foods diet at the moment.
So it feels like

More and more dark leafy greens like kale, spinach, chard
Herby greens like arugula and parsley
Lettuce

Slightly less oils, I use a lot of olive oil and coconut oil

Whole grains once every 2 days, or once a day (cooked brown rice, sprouted Ezekiel bread... but I would prefer finding ways to eat more live whole grains)

Fruits throughout the day: apples, oranges, berries, melon...

Sprouted or raw crackers

Beets, cucumber, radish, carrots, squash...
And onions! And garlic!

I don't want to eat meat or fish right now, though I might still eat milk products if it felt right. I don't like to label myself, but I would say that I'm not eating any animals at the moment, and very little dairy (it would be organic, unpasteurized), if any.

I really want this to become more fun... I feel so serious about eating, even though I know that these changes are right for me... it's just hard to make them in an environment where nobody else is.

I've finally decided to seriously take the plunge into raw veganism. In August I was 100% raw vegan for 19 days but I went back to my sloppy vegetarian cooked diet. At least I've been vegetarian for over a year now. I'll never eat meat again, that...

many people who have been there have talked about it. I would rather be on the plane of bliss where everything I desire manifests/ How do you know as well? You dont?

Fuck, I love Shirley Manson & Courtney Love. It's like we have gone backwards in the music world, there are no powerful female role models in music. Just women slutting it up in their underwear or getting all cute, with an inability to sing about...
