I'm doing alright. Had a rough week. I started craving the most freakish cooked foods. So I overdosed on not the best raw foods. Don't think that was the best solution.
You are very welcome! I'm glad that I could help :) I know how important it is to have someone to relate to.. so anytime you want to talk feel free! :) and yeah I can imagine the price to move out in NY must be horrible.. I'm actually from NJ and thought of moving back up there to be around my brother and sister but it's just way too expensive.. what part of fl are you visiting?
Hey Mary, I know what you're saying about missing nutrients in the diet. I do the same thing sometimes. For the most part I think it's from the mind absorbing so much from what we read or hear about vitamins and minerals and what we "need", and how we can supplement it. Yes, at times there may be a need for a certain nutrient for an individual but for the most part I find I get all nutrients from loving thoughts and actions, the foods I eat, sunlight, and air. Loving thoughts and actions are very high on my list because I can be very hard on myself at times when I feel like I am not "measuring up" which is just silliness. I can become disconnected and start searching for something outside of myself to fix it, and after exhausting myself with running in circles, I always remember it's within. It's always within. What you share is very helpful to me. I can totally relate to it! I think you're doing really great with everything and am always glad to help in any way that I can. Peace :-)
Mary, your are kind and amazing. It meant so much to me to read what you wrote me. I want you to know if you ever need anything or just to talk, whether it be advice on fitness, life or those hard days that seem like you want to give up, I've been there, and I'm always available. The body responds to hard work and passion. Competing isn't just about food. It's more mental then anything. Especially towards the day of the show when you have to sweat all the water out and cut food and water drastically. If it's what you want I support you 100% Posted one of my old pictures for you ;)
Your welcome... I had the same conflict about whether to go ahead and buy the vitamix (buy the best, as they say) or buy a cheaper blender and I decided to go with this because I really didn't know if I would stick to being Raw. And I saw my "perfectionist" tendency during this conflict as well; wanting to do it "right".I feel $450 is just too much for a blender- especially if you live on a limited budget.
hey! don't feel bad i've barely been raw lately! haha i need to start eating better! yea i'm soo excited about moving! it will be at the end of august. we'll def have to go to a raw restaurant!
I knew you would enjoy that. How are far are you out of Manhattan? If your ever in Hell's Kitchen, go to Westerly Market 54th street and 8th Avenue. Go to the back you will find an organic juice bar, and they have the best Raw Food Section in the city, Raw cheesecake, cookies, brownies, granola, and prepared Raw food(lasagna, pasta, mock tuna/salmon salad, etc...) Ask for David, good friend of mine, he'll fix you up!!! Be well darling

I think August is going to be better for a lot of people. There are raw people in this area but its not that easy to find them. Its not like in the city. I hope you can make it!
If you can't make this one I plan to start doing them monthly in September when people's schedules clear up and vacations are done. Depending on who is available I may do one in August.
Master or Super TONIC (usually made with garlic, ginger, horseradish, onion, hot peppers, acv etc) is right up there. This dude here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wQbGDmaKZcstart at 1:50) is making tonic. It doesn't have to get this complex to ...
