Hey Patty...Are you finding many raw places in Nashville? Our close friend lives there and we will be visiting again this year so hope they do have some.
Glad you liked the blog. I climb with a lot of Vegeterians too, but none of them are raw foodies by any means. Sme of them actually not even healthy vegetarians. South Korea sounds awesome! I be there is some good climbing there too.
For your coffee habit you should try Teccino Herbal Coffee. http://www.teeccino.com/ I need to start drinking it again myself, lately I have jumped back into the coffee cart. This stuff is pretty good, and non-acidic.
Hey that is so sweet thankyou! I was defnitely hooked for a good few years, I used to 'need' one every morning because it would 'wake' (more like kick my adrenals into stress zone) my sleep-deprived body up so I could train cients at 6am. I learnt more about the negative affects of coffee (which helps build resolve) and just decided one day (before I was raw) that I wasn't having another cup of coffee & that was it and I did the same with alcohol and it was really quite easy, sure I got withdrawal symptoms but it was only a few days and I channelled the nervous energy I felt into exercise. Cold turkey is best girlfriend, drink lots of water in place of the coffee, keep your 'coffee' hand busy with a replacement action :-)
Hey babe this should help - here's some info about coffee..
The beans in coffee are cooked, making them non-raw. The fatal dose of caffeine is 10 grams, the amount in approximately 70 cups of coffee. Many people take one tenth of the lethal dose every day. Moreover, caffeine decreases the amount of pepsin in your body, pepsin that is needed for protein digestion. Caffeine is also known to deplete the body of water, calcium, potassium, manganese, and the vitamin B complex. It is ironic that many coffee drinkers on the Standard American Diet (SAD) criticize the raw diet because they believe they would not receive enough protein every day, while their daily intake of coffee blocks the absorption of the very protein they claim they need.
Hey Patty thanks for the PM, i can't pm you back because its not working for me but you can email me on ptlea@hotmail.com and im happy to chat !

Hi Patty Ann I see that you are into the Kombucha tea. It is new to me and I think I LOVE it and yes I spend alot of money on it so I ordered a kit.
I am still trying to figure out if it is "all good". Sometimes it seems to good to be true. But it makes me feel good and has been used for centuries so it must be good right?
What do you love about it and what benefits do you get.
Thanks Kim
PS your picture is too cute.
Don't get me started on Green Lantern. My friend Rich has that subject covered. He's a Green Lantern freak. I'd welcome any thoughts, however, you might have on Aquaman or Ewoks.
If you're trying to go beyond your coffee addiction, I'd suggest green smoothies or green juice in the morning. The first thing you have before you eat anything or drink your coffee.
Do this for a few weeks (16 ounces in the morning) and start to notice how the addiction for that coffee high goes away.
Haha! Probably Charles! I actually bought this dress at the spirit fest because it was on sale and made from 100% organic hemp. The rest of the clothes I brought were pretty grubby. :)
I avoid dinner dates, because that's never a good way to know someone on a first date. And besides, you never know whether they accepted to go to dinner because they liked you or because they didn't want to cook and they wanted to be treated out t...

You can always ask a produce dept. employee at Whole Foods to cut one open so you can try it before you waste your money. It's store policy to let people sample things:)
but just becouse we were tampered with does not mean that we came from microscopic ethers. We had form, body and a brain, simple tampering was neccessary to tame wild beasts that we were then in order to domesticate us..........and to make faithfu...
