You should add green smoothies to your diet. You'll get a lot more greens in your diet. I've lost 30 lbs since I added green smoothies. I'm going to do a 30 100% raw diet in January... I just don't crave the cooked food anymore.
omg its my little buddy Watermelon.....
i have lost 6 kilos in 6 weeks from going from high fruit low fat to high greens lower fruit and moderate fat,its great to lose excess...i train alot as you know....but i believe once things balance out and...
Haha, that's what I'm shooting for. Why do you suppose that is, is it a matter of remineralization, giving up emotional eating patterns, hormone rebalancing?
are you feeling better on these diets though? If you do, don't stress, it will happen. I heard lots of people not losing weight on raw for a while and then suddenly it all started to come off.
I'd like to have slightly textured / matte messed up look. Typically when I get out of the shower and just brush my hair around with my fingers i get it right. But once it dries up it all becomes one.
How can I best maintain that look with a "non...
yep... its the magnesium, you absorb it through your skin
You might find doing a fruit and green smoothie-concentrated diet helpful in the beginning, since they're easiest to digest. When your digestion starts to normalize you can go back to including more raw veggies and salads, nuts, ect.

Chava said… - congradulations on the baby and thanks for joining raw toddlers and babies. i also had my 3rd baby August 30 too! Plus i have a 2.5 & 1.5 year olds. My biggest challenge is getting them to try more salads and chopped veggies, since they are so used to softer smoother foods. :)

Jennifer said… - Hi! You look beautiful! Congrats on your second baby! I was anorexic for many many years but after having children, and allowing myself to love myself I'm happy to say that I do not suffer any longer. the only thing that remains is some body dismorphia and I'm not sure if that ever goes away. But I know what I think that I see isn't probably really there and check in with my hubby from time to time. It's good to someone to keep me in check, you know?
LOTS OF LOVE! If you need any tips for staying raw during your pregnacy please feel free to contact me!

Detoxing?
Yesterday was not one of my best days in this pregnancy. I felt tired, depressed, emotional, irritable, headachy, and restless. I usually have cravings for some cooked food at somepoint everday but yesterday they were the strongest. I survived but was a little worried. Is it detox? pregnancy? both? should I be worried?I see the doctor tomorrow, and the therapist. i've gained almost 5 pounds since the puring stopped, and so i'm pleased. I hope the doctor has good news for me about my bloodwork fr… Continue

Bad News
all of my bloodtests have come back negative. I'm severly anemic, I have very low blood platelets, and I have gestational diabetes, and the worst part is that its all my falt. My doctor said this is all due to the fact that I had an extreame eating disorder and never got proper care in time. She said that she highly reccomends that I get what my body needs quickly because i'm high risk and could go into labor any time in the next 10 weeks and if I do there is a good chance that I will have compl… Continue

the effect cooked food has on me after only a little over 2 weeks raw
last night I made a super nutritious veggie and kale soup with lentil beans for my family, and actually had a bowl of it with a piece of sprouted grain bread and earth balance. My first un purged cooked meal in over two weeks. I woke up a couple of hours ago, around 4am with a horrible back ache and soreness all over that was so bad that I thought I could be in labor. on top of that my constipation that I thought was gone forever suddenly came back. I'm starting to feel a little better now after… Continue

There was a show on Aajonus, he eats rotting meat, and worms. I mean, he eats ROTTING meat.
ANybody know where that video went?
this is a raw food board, not cooked food pizza support!!!! LOL
pizza is so gross. Make raw pizza go to raw vegan restaurant and order a big one.
nasty, I know try less and less
Whats wrong with uglies? fatties need love too
In south beach I have seen that kind of stuff all over. in fact three couples were in the ocean making love to their boyfirneds when I was trying to have sex with mine. No privacy!
yeah, certain people you don't want to see fuck >
Aajonus doesn't look so healthy and doesn't make much sense here. The doctors seem really ignorant too.

I mix it with lime and eat it like that... I also like some mixed in my green lemonade (juiced kale, cucumber, apple, lemon).
And you still have a penny left!
Mmmm...I will join you.
Yes!
The breath, thank you,
without further ado, time for 31-minute kundalini pranayam on the lawn in the sun.
Thanks so much for this, wow!
Yogs
wow that is impressive.
Part 1: I have used Liquid Zeolites for detoxing lead from doing stained glass art for a few years and MSM for ease of movement in the joints. Both worked great.
Part 2: I have used-
Aged garlic extracts/ immune tonic and system cleanser
Anti-Par...
If someone wants to control everybody and I am allowing everyone to be free you mean?
I am sure there will be willing followers for whatever. Some people like to follow orders.
This has always been one of my healthier alternatives. However, usually our pizzas were done on French bread. Not the best healthy food mind you, but much better than restaurant pizzas!
AAHAHHAHA
AHAAHA well the book went to number one
