If you didn't blend up fresh greens yourself It's probably not good for you
hmmm.... my hair is really thin too... because of low ferritin levels. Have you had your iron levels checked? it needs to be at least 40 to keep the hair you have, and around 70 to regrow new hair. Mine is at 11 right now lol. It could also be hor...
I second Adam. Head hair is defininitely related to kidney/adrenal energy. The Fo-Ti herb would be good, as well as the black sesame seeds. Seaweed is also good (esp. arame).
My hair used to fall out because of this issue and taking Fo-Ti helped.

I'll suggest something on the above lines. But, there is a greater issue for you here. Its major change.. Mind, Body, Emotions.. & apparently way too much Tension, Stress, Anxiety... all at the same time.
I think I sent you my phone number right?...
You set yourself up for failure. (Told you so)
"I feel like I'm doing this all wrong and hurting myself more.I think I need to learn to make atleast 5 basic raw food recipes that I ENJOY eating and crave ."
That is BS. Receipes will not change it for you. You're thinking & going about it ALL ...
Gradually Ashwini. You cannot change OVERNIGHT. Your body, mind, habits, taste... everything has to evolve slowly and you have to have the SPARE TIME & SPARE ENERGY to go through the CHANGE.
I have friends who slowly migrated off Red Meat, then t...

Need to figure myself out.
Lately I've been going a little crazy about my looks and health . It's all freaking me out and It's kind of adding to my hairfall and things.I've been trying to bite off more than I can chew by trying to go 100% raw .What happens Is that I don't really enjoy It and I start obessing about food and my looks through out the day .I look really worried and stressed through out the day according to my friends .I have a great set of friends who don't get mad at me when I'm testy and crabby but It's jus… Continue

For lunch I had 2 bread-omlette sandwiches .In the evening I had a half glass of tea and For dinner I had my salad ,1 roti and a cooked vegge and 5 vege steamed dumplings (momos).

Day 3
Today may not be the best day for me in terms of eating but I've learnt quite a few things . I've learnt that I shouldnt force the raw food lifestyle on myself rather I should enjoy It. If I don't enjoy It I doubt It'll become a lifestyle.
I shouldnt obesse about my weight and looks.As long as I eat right and exercise I will be fine
My negative attitude towards life has more to do with my ill health than anything else
I should have more patience with myself
(Thanks LEIJA)

- I was eating low fat low salt raw. I lost 8 lbs in the first 5 days. Im sure it was mostly water but it felt good. No detox at that point. i derRoger Haeske's veggie stew recipes online and was hving the berry cherry chunkie smoothie for breakfast and the stews for lunch and sometimes for dinner and also snacking a lot. raisins, lettuce, nectarines. I always made a frozen banana ice cream at night for a treat too.

Nell said… - Take small steps. Get your breakfast routine in order first and stick to it for a week. Then move on to snacks. Then move on to lunch. And then do a mostly raw dinner. And finally a raw dinner.
I've gotten out of my routines and "raw" has fallen apart, so I'm starting over in the same way. Restablishing my routines slowly so they stick.
Good luck.

Leija Turunen said… - Yay! I'm glad my little Leija stream of consciousness Ashwini inspired blurb helped you! My job is done here! hehe. I know when I find myself focusing on the little things, that in the big scheme of things, don't matter, I consciously decide to direct my focus to something else. So the next time you're thinking about food, you might want to try doing a couple of things. What helps me is taking about 10-20 deep breathes. If I'm still obsessing over whatever it is I'm obsessing over after that, if I have the chance, I'll go for a walk, run, bike or do some yoga out in nature. Simply moving around and releasing endorphins is sure to clear your mind and leave you feeling more centered, happy and inspired. Also, one more thing- if I'm in a rutt one day, it's usually because I'm not doing what I want to do. As soon as I start doing something creative, like painting, I feel uplifted right away... or sometimes I simply need to hear a friendly voice so I'll call up a friend and chat for a bit and automatically feel better! Give those things a try and let me know if they help!

That is a good point Angus. I have found that a lot of fundamentalist religions accuse everyone else of worshiping the devil and it like a blind hysteria- like all these other people have a black bible in their house and secretely worship a statue...
That's brilliant Angus, thanks....this will keep me busy for a while :)

What other book can you recommend Angus?...staying with those kinda ideas, living in alignment with nature, natural hygiene, fruit diets, fasting (or anyone else :).
You know, I'm aware that we made some groundbreaking discoveries in recent years ...
I'm not going to comment on climate change. But i will comment on carbon trading. Because they can produce such a consciousness of fear out of global warming - they are able to manipulate markets much more severely - and they seem to get away with...
