No! I'd like to lose 10-15 lbs and the only thing that allows me to lose weight is running 5+ miles a day and eating very little. I did a 30 day juice feast last year and lost 4 lbs--and I didn't eat ANYTHING for 30 days! Just one of those things...
What with the census under the control of the White House and ACORN hired to do the legwork, can we expect anything less that utter corruption? Civil liberties are vanishing. America's a great country--can we restore it to our founders' intent?
My best tip is to make sure you get your greens. If I have a green smoothie or a huge salad, early in the day, I don't get the cravings. Otherwise I'm grazing all day when I'm not really hungry, sometimes eating non-raw junk and then feeling TERRI...
Hi Kurt--
I know this may be a bit off topic, but I'm wondering what your goal is in all this. Bodybuilders have proven that a whole foods vegan diet can be used to gain mass--if that's your objective, why not simply supplement your diet with veg...

It's mostly raw. He doesn't have the macronutient breakdowns, but I'm sure you could figure them out.

Not lonely! Does anyone know if there's a way to search the site to find people who actually live in your area. I just moved to Alabama with my husband who's in the army and can't find much of a raw community here--not to mention a good health foo...
Hey there super-beautiful-hero! I thought your GI2MR profile could use some love. I learned today that, although tofu can be raw, eating nothing but tofu-based pudding and dehydrated crackers at the Palmer potluck will give you enough gas to power your car all the way home.
Thanks for the tip! It's only a couple days till the tax return and I'll be golden...meantime squeezing out my own juice is kind of fun....I was shocked how much I made the first time!
I had a juicer when I was a teenager... I was really into carrot juice and bodybuilding...this method I found on the juice feasting site is actually really quick and easy cleanup--just dump the dry pulp in the compost!
I saw you wrote on the master cleanse thread- I have a question (hope you don't mind) but whats the difference between a master cleanse and a juice feast and how long are they?
I'm a wife to my darling Mike, a private voice teacher, a libertarian and a spiritual seeker. I enjoy running with my dog Princess, reading survival books and fooling around with my husband.

I've met some hit chix on GITMR. Not satisfying in the least. Just the opposite. Most communication is self-defeating, accomplishes nothing. I would love it if people would leave me alone when I'm out and about. Anybody else?
Mariam, watching this raises questions: for instance, is this guy just an actor?
Seems like it. "Am I glad I went"? Well, in the sense that I knew I had to see him eventually.....I guess I got it over with (and used up my airline credit). Is he a...
"Did I meet any hot chix?" I love it~! Ha! Ha! Ha!
I've met too many of those in my life, already, many more than enough. I think I've had enough. But thanks!
also, a dr. friend told me that some of the waxy stuff can drip into your ear and do permanent damage. it does feel great, but i don't do it any longer. i've actually fallen asleep while having it done. =/
Thank you Wrenn that is what I thought too and your comments are very helpful! I think it would also be cool at $.99 for 5 TOTALLY new raw recipes and then it can be a series of them at $.99 each...thanks for your comment!
