Thank you for the comment, it has been hard. In fact, I stopped eating raw for awhile and felt totally miserable.

Finally I got things sorted out. I lost 3 :) Yay! Were you affected by hurricane Ike?
Cool, thanks for the site! I will check it out....I know there is a meetup in Austin as well.Yes, its really cool knowing there are other raw foodies here in good 'ole Texas!

In NYC, petite models are pretty hard to book, because there are so few! I know one, Miss Asian America and she's constantly busy doing commercials!
Shorties are goodies lol
That is so true, its very funny and Miss J wears the most random things every week. This last season Tyra "revolutionized" the industry by putting short girls on the show LOL
Yes, your liver can regenerate and adapt. I juice feasted for 3 months to clear some health ailments that I had my entire life. Anyway, in the recommended regimen they recommend taking some fat every day like 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, and 1 tab...
I did it to get rid of allergies. Of course I was not raw when i did this, I did a treatment for chicken, i basically had extreme sensitivities to a bunch of different foods and was always craving chicken as a result. After I could eat it without ...
Unfortunately, my dogs were microchipped before I got them. I haven't decided what to do about it yet. Really don't want them to have surgery to take them out.
