I watch a lot of TV. For a normal person, it's probably too much, but for an aspiring TV writer, it's probably not enough. I watch Top Chef, Project Runway, Heroes, Gossip Girl, Greek, Biggest Loser, Glee, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, and Bon...

Hi Kate, I tried the vegan thing and it worked for many months, however I was tired of the headaches too and trying to adjust to certain foods, so I understand what you are going through. As of a month or so ago, I made the commitment to go comple...

I would assume as much, but after I pre-registered it kept advertising "There are still Pioneer positions available..." so I wasn't sure.

how do you become a Pioneer?

There's no way your body would reject fish that quickly! It takes years of eating super clean food to have that kind of reaction, you weren't detoxing. It was probably the restaurant or your mind. Regardless....go vegan!

two weeks

So I've been vegan for close to two weeks now and I'm trying to figure out what's going on with me.

I thought I would feel better going vegan and maybe it's just detox, but I'm constantly plagued with headaches, and I drink plenty of water.

I'm also having a terrible time trying to sleep at night. I usually hit the sack around 1 or 2 am (I am a college student afterall) and I get up around 8:30 usually, but for the past 5 days or so I haven't been able to fall asleep until around 6 or 7 am and… Continue

Detox or punishment?

So I've been vegan for about a week now and vegetarian for a little while longer, but last night I went out with my friends and stupidly had some fish at dinner.

Well that resulted in my not falling asleep until about 7:30am and spending most of my night in the bathroom. I'm only wondering if it was just normal detox or if my body was just badly reacting to the animal product?

Either way I don't plan on having any animal products again--that was not fun.

four days vegan, strong and happy

So, this is officially the longest I have ever been able to maintain a vegan or raw vegan lifestyle. Granted I'm not raw right now, but I am vegan.

I got through the three-day hump and I have never gotten through it before. I honestly think part of it was because I didn't even think about it until this afternoon and by then I had already passed through it. Last night was particularly difficult for me, but it didn't even register in my mind what was going on.

I still haven't actually told anyon… Continue

first day vegan

So I didn't really tell anyone this, but I became a vegan today. I've been eating vegetarian on and off for a few months, but since I am now trying to really harness my budget and cook all of my meals at home I decided to go vegan.

As much as I would love to go raw right now, I know that I'm not ready for it, and that's okay. First I need to get myself off my addictions to animal products and processed foods and I know that someday I will get there and be raw.

But for now I need to do what I c… Continue

good luck becoming vegan! I became a vegan in April when I was still in college in mass and it was interesting but people around me were surprisingly supportive and respected my decision. Make sure not to eat more bread/processed carbs in place of meat though, it's just as unhealthy!

Ok that is a good answer thank you! I kinda figured most RAW ladies probably don't wear make up, etc. don't need to you have the RAW GLOW and natural beauty already! BUT I do know a lot of ladies that still wear it or like to...but thanks for your info I really appreciate it! :o)

HI KissMeKate just wondering what your opinion of new all natural plant based mascara, make up, lipstick I am selling/carrying on my online store, I have some photos and info on my GITMR Page. But just wanted to ask what you think of it? Good price? Too high priced? Good product? Bad product? Please let me know thanks and really appreciate it! :o) I want to empower women to use all natural make up and cosmetics so they won't get cancer or sick...they can also earn extra side income if they tell their friends about it too...a raw food lady told me about it...

Hi Kate

Thank you for befriending me. You are favoring yourself by buying Vita-mix. Marvelous! I need to buy one, but am short of funds right now.

You strike me as an artistic soul.

Love and Peace..
