Thank you so much! This is VERY Helpful!!!

Depends on what you use. If you are adding fruits to the green juice, try juicing the green bits first and then taking out the pulp before you add fruit, that way you can get some cookie type pulp and some savoury stuff. Usually anything made with...

Hello, I have been juicing a lot of greens and would really love to throw the pulp (along with added spices) into the dehydrator. Does anyone have any good suggestions/ recipes for dehydrated juice pulp stuff? thank you!!! Astarte

back again

Well, it has been a long couple of weeks. I am finally feeling healthy again. After being raw for 3 months, I went off the diet for a while while I was sick with a sinus infection. I was still making healthy choices, like veggies and grains. then I had a break from school and really went off raw. I even stepped into the SAD lifestyle while visiting my parents. I have often reverted into unconscious eating patterns at my parents house, and it was easy to do it again for the 3 days I was there. I… Continue

It has been a while!

Well, i have been sick off and on now for like a month. I believe some of it is detoxing and some of it is from my daughter who is 2...say no more. I am feeling really happy about my diet though.While I am still almost all raw, I have added a little cooked quinoa and steamed veggies while going through all this sick time. It feels right. I am not doing toast with jam and eggs like I normally want if I get sick. I realize that I only want to eat food that is pure and not processed. This is the fi… Continue

I feel unsatisfied!

It is so strange. I am eating raw, yet I can't put my finger on what my body wants. I have been craving food, and it seems like no matter what I eat I am still so hungry. I think I might want sweets...no, thats not it. Fats? Nope, not it either. It is unsettling. I guess the best thing to do is just sit with it and ride it out. Perhaps I have come up against an edge that I was able to numb down with cooked foods. Hhhhmmmm. I think I will go drink some water.

still raw!

well, I am still raw. It has been a rough week with colds and stomach bugs, but we are all better. I am so busy with school right now and my inspiration level has been very up and down as well as my energy. I have been reading the Rainbow live-food Cuisine book by Gabriel Cousens, and he says sometimes it can take a long time for your body to really adjust to this new way of eating. He is also inspiring me to eat a lot less sugar. I am considering doing his phase 1 plan of no/low sugar for a lea… Continue

I'm not suppose to get a cold?!!!!

Heeey, I am raw. I am not suppose to get sick! My cold is actually so much better today. I actually kept joking with my husband saying, "Oh i am not sick, I am just detoxing." Hey, maybe I was? Well, my daughter and I played for kind of a long time in the rain last week, and we both promptly got colds. It was fun though. She wore her new boots. But since then, I have stayed totally raw until my cold made an encore appearence this weekend. I had a little tofu and also a warm bowl from cafe gratit… Continue

Hi Astarte,

Lol thanks! You have the best taste ;)! I know, I adore her, that show was the best thing ever - they were meant to do a spin off entitled 'Ripper' with Giles and ghost stories - did you hear about that? I think the comics replaced that though =(!

What season are you on? I am watching season 3 currently on TV, I think thats my favourite, Faith was the best character ever!

Wow - energy healing? That sounds amazing, what is that?

I adore that quote by the way!

Much love <3

Hi Astarte,
Thanks for your comment :) It's so exciting to read about your raw journey! I can feel it through your writing that you are having an amazing experience...and I have to agree with others who have said that it only gets better! I am inspired by what you wrote about sharing your experience with others in your class. It's so cool to get the word out about how awesome being so ALIVE really is. I would love to see a pic of your daughter- sounds like we share a good bit of our astrological charts! All I can say about that is that my life has been quite an emotional ride...and I wouldn't trade it :)

My grandmother turned me on to this one. What about that little rock poppy segment in the middle that doesnt quite fit in with the rest of it? Its beautiful though, 80's ruled the world of great sappy songs.

Writing is very healing for me. It brings out my soul and allows it to shine. Writing is beneficial in many ways. I will write more about this later. =)

We know the holiday season can be busy, with lots of parties and gatherings. Most of these events serve up sugary, artificial, and/or unhealthy foods making it especially hard to stay with a raw or vegan diet. So, come and celebrate the holidays ...

wonderful. Trader Joe's has good prices too. And they are only a few blocks away from me so this is great.

I certainly believe you. I have just only seen them steamed or boiled at TJs so this is especially exciting to me that they have nice bags of raw ones to buy. it was me being incredulous in a good way.

Try this Doreen. I found out about it when I worked at Jubbs longevity. There is absolutely no aftertaste and a bottle lasts forever. I've been using it for years. Lucky Vitamin has amazing prices on many things too. http://www.luckyvitamin.com/i...
