Is it possible to eat raw in South Korea?
I have had teaching in South Korea in the back of my mind. Is it possible to eat raw and vegan while there or is it very difficult? Anybody know? I have heard it is unsafe to eat fruits and veggies there.

Two week water fast
I have decided to do a two week water fast starting tomorrow. I have done two seven day water fasts in the past two years with good results and want to try a longer fast. I am looking for direction and clarity on where to go next in my life. Does anyone have any experience doing a two week water fast? Did you have energy while on it? What were your results from the fast?

I am so much happier than I used to be...
One of the real reasons I went raw around three years ago was because I was unhappy and wanted to be a happier person. One thing that disappointed me at first was that I didn't feel happier although physically I loooked so much better. Anyways, quitting a job that I dreaded going to last October and getting certified in yoga have really helped me to become a happier person. I look forward to each day so much more! Also, I started taking improv acting classes and acting classes which helped me to… Continue

Ideal weight...
So, honestly my ideal weight is 116 - 120 lbs. Right now I am ranging from 126 - 128 lbs eating very high raw. It seems the only time I am at my ideal weight is when I am juice fasting or eating zero nuts and fats. I am not sure if I should accept that my average weight is 126 - 128 or if I should try and get down to my ideal weight by restricting my fat intake a great deal. I just feel that I like the way I look better when I am about ten lbs lighter. However, I do love to have my raw desserts… Continue

Marie-Lies Van Asten said… - Hey, Im sorry I missed your call...I was at the River and John was talking about Sprouts so my phone was on silence...I wished Id known you called cause I would have picked up. Anyway, Im glad to hear that you are having fun. All the food you tried sounds amazing! I wish they had a raw bakery down here...sounds like fun! I wasnt sure if I could call you back on that phone number...so I didnt. I miss you too and wished I could have come with you. I wanted to thank you for the things you introduced me to over the past two weeks...I had an awesome time hanging out and making raw food treats with you. Cya in a few months...I hope you learn a lot and enjoy your time there.

- I double checked the plane tickets and none of them leave from Atlanta to NYC for that price...there is nothing under $300...I must have imagined it (cause I really want to go) lol. Oh and Saturday night we can go to drum circle if we want after the picnic. We are not doing anything on Friday right? cause someone asked me to babysit. Anyway, have a great day:) I might meet up with Mark later on tonight and give him some cookies...he asked.
