I'll just say I'm 99% raw ; )

I don't cook food anymore, but I'm not opposed to adding a little turmeric to my blended salads, or dried herbs if I can't get any fresh. I find it's alot better for my mind to allow for that margin of error.

I will stay raw if I find it sustainable. If I don't feel good, then I'll probably experiment with adding some cooked foods back to my diet. All I want is health, don't care how I get it.

Ok, now I never do understand why people would count a tiny bit of dried herbs as "cooked" food. If I was eating that much raw, I'd say I was raw....100%

I'm just saying, I'm not gonna flip out if I eat something that has been heated beyond what is considered scientifically 'raw'. I don't like the 100% raw label anyways. My chlorella probably isn't raw, my probiotics probably have an ingredient in them that's not raw. No big deal to me, I'm in this for health not a 100% raw badge that I can put in my wallet and arrest cooked fooders with ; )

I am not good with percentages, but I'm not 100% raw. I'm. . .hmmm. . .80%, maybe? My meals go like this:

Rising = Juice from kale + whatever else is in the fridge
Breakfast = raw fresh fruit
Lunch = raw salads or just plain, raw, crunchy veggies like lettuce, celery, carrots, baby tomatoes (they aren't crunchy, ha!)
Dinner = Raw veggies + cooked veggies and every third day, I eat either raw tuna or meat made "carpaccio" style (raw, pounded thin, soaked in lemon, garlic and olive oil) Occasionally, I will replace the raw flesh with cooked fish or cooked eggs.

I still eat a dinner of cooked vegetables because I miss the warming aspect of the foods. My goal is to one day, be 100% raw vegetarian, but I'm not putting pressure on myself to jump to 100% too fast. My head couldn't handle it and I'd be eating pizza or burgers inside of a month. Ha ha ha.

Depends on the day! Sometimes I'll eat nothing but fruit all day and sometimes I'll eat teriyaki steak tips with mashed potatoes. I think as long as you don't eat processed foods and eat as much organic as possible you can live a healthy life! Going high raw is a great way to clean your body but staying 100% raw doesn't do it for me mentally. All the props in the world to people who live 100% as long as they don't look down on others who don't do it. RAW FOOD IS FUN!

At the moment I am at about 60-70% raw. I eat 100 % vegetarian, some cheese, some rye bred and some cooked vegetables. Green smoothie in the morning and raw foods with every other meal. my next goal is to go 100% vegan. Micha
