Hi Kate, I see "tomorrow" was a couple weeks ago! Sorry. You asked how my "detox" went... Well, my detox went great-- i was doing a juice fast at the Tree of Life in Arizona. It was amazing!! I was there about 18 days. When I got home, I gradually "re-toxed"> hmmmm, so I'm on a roller coaster now. I THINK i'm gradually getting closer and closer to going all raw, but its hard. Not sure what else you asked. I'm so glad you found this website, and hope its going well for you!
How is the raw going by now?

Hey Kate :) Thanks for the comment- I am doing well and very jealous of you in the hot weather! ;) We are just getting into winter here in NZ and it is a COLD one ! ( although we don't get snow in most parts of NZ)
Yum, that recipe sounds delicious- I will have to try it! I actually just made some cashew nut raw ice cream ow and am waiting for it to freeze to see how it went.. fingers crossed :)
I haven't been trying out many new recipes lately but something I have found to be delicious is a fruit smoothie:
For one person (large serving!) :

Juice 1 apple and 1 orange
Put the juice in your blender then add as much pinapple as you want ( I usually put about a third -half a pineapple ), with a banana and maybe some raspberries or whatever fruit you really enjoy that is water-based/ easy to blend smooth :)

Blend it all up and then voila! I hope you and your family enjoy it! Especially with the hot weather :) I used to have this for breakfast with spirulina blended in and sprinkled with LSA (ground up linseeds, sunflowers seeds and Almonds- good protein and yummy )

Hope you are doing awesomely well! And would love to hear about where you are at with your raw food journey :)

At the moment I have come to the place where I no longer desire as much food physically (in fact, I seem to be craving juices mostly..), but psychologicallyand emotionally, my mind does... It is really easy to see the discrepancies between my actual physical needs and my emotional/psychological wants... and my job now is to work through this stage by trying to listen to my body as religiously as I possibly can :) It's a journey that's for sure!

Look forward to hearing from you!

Jo =)

Hi Kate!
Nice to meet you, & welcome. This is a great lifestyle process. Enjoy it, the more excited you are about your changes the better. My mom & are are doing this together too, so that's a cool coincedence you're doing it with your daughter. Makes it easier & much more fun to do it together. I too would like to loose around 50 lbs. Good luck to you, & feel free to chat...

Wow Kate- it sounds like you have been experiencing an incredible journey! Thanks for the awesome comment and I would love to get to know you too! :) Swapping recipes sounds fantastic- how did your raw ice cream go? What flavour was it?

It sounds like you are totally on the right track here, with your body obviously releasing toxins so quickly :) I also found the new energy fantastic! One f the best things for me personally about eating (mostly) raw is that I don't have that heavy and slightly lethargic feeling in my stomach after eating food/a meal. It's GREAT!

Love to hear from you and see how your journey is going! Keep up the raw! =D

My advice is to take it slowly. Give yourself time to transition to this new diet and don't be hard on yourself if you slip up. It took me 5 years of transitioning, eating between 80-99% raw before I went 100% raw just over a year ago.
