Hello! I am very new to belly dance...in a way. I started doing veena and neena workouts in high school, and later put the belly dancing down for a spell, but the bug never left me! I've always loved it. I recently made a friend that has practiced...

I took a break and now I'm back~

So I totally fell off the raw bandwagon after 42 very successful days of living raw...it's the health crisis, it always gets me. I've been slowly making my way back to being the 100% raw girl I know I can be, but the detoxing thing is really taking its toll on me. It wasn't like this at first when I began my raw and vegan journey. I guess I just need to toughen up...but has anyone else experience awful detox symptoms (headaches, etc) and how do you deal with your health crisis??

Rice Pudding by Accident: Day 5

So it's day five and things are going well:-) I decided to watch Victoria Boutenko's raw cooking dvd after work and I wanted to try and make the cake she did because it looked so fun and pretty. Everything was going well until it came time to make the frosting. She used almonds, honey and some lemon juice. I wanted a coconut flavor so I thought, well instead of lemon juice, why not use coconut water instead. I mixed the coconut water with a few leftover cashews, a ton of walnuts and some agav

Hey, it was good to meet you at the potluck this weekend. I meant to say goodbye to you but I guess you skipped out early.

That's awesome, I know exactly where you live. For about 2 years I moved out to Quaker Town, then not long after that ordeal I was compelled to come back home to Canada.

What's your story and what have you learned in life?

Hey Frankie
Nice to meet you...and sounds like I might get to meet you for real soon - you're coming to Scotland.....why, when, where etc etc.....??

Hi Frankie!
Don't worry, raw won't let you escape... it tends to catch people who tried it once again and again.... raw energy and vibrance one just can't "leave" - resistance is futile ;D
Cooool, Edinburgh! Are you going to this relatively new raw place? Red sugar it is called, if I remember correctly?! If so, pleeeaase, take pics and tell me everything :)
I in my turn can't believe I'm gonna leave England in less than 2 weeks after a whole year! Feels kinda strange... Although I'm really looking forward to home - all the fresh (free!) fruit and veggies from our garden, sun, the woods to run in, nature! Imaging bellydancing next to my little river, inmidst "green"...
Right now, after I survived the hardest exam time of my life, I'm trying to close my England file with good memories rather than exams and lab and dissertations... Just recovering at my "home base" Liverpool from my spontaneous hiking trail in Peak District national park last week, and I'll go to Bristol for the weekend - there's a huge vegan fayre also featuring lots of raw stuff (stalls, talks, demos,...). And afterwards I'll carry on directly further to the south to Cornwall for my next hiking adventure (part of the southwest coastal path), dunno where exactly yet :) It's just a pity that I'm always alone with my trips... my flatmates/friends here already complain if they have to walk a few metres to the supermarket *lol*
I'm really loving life at the moment, and embracing every little sunshine that makes it through the UK fog and cloud wall :)
Hope you're doing awesome too! When exactly are you going to Scotland?

Hello fellow vegan!

Pleasure to make your aquaintance!

I see you're from the burbs!

Where abouts, I was living in Bucks County for a decade or so.

How long did 50lbs last you? A week? I would recommend that a person get some greens to go along with their bananas.. did you forage for any greens that week?

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...
