Hihorosie~ You can do what you set out to do!! I, too, have joined Raw Fu. My goal right now isn't to be 100% but rather to find five raw recipes I love. Small steps.

Woohoo! So awesome that you are joining the Par-Tay! I cannot wait to get started. I'm working on a pre-challenge kick start for the 5 days leading up to it, I'm going to try some new juice and smoothie recipes and get some meal planning going too. I'm also adding exercise to the challenge, to do some form of physical activity for at least 30 minutes for the 100 days. Will feel great and I can't wait!!

p.s. tx for being on my side :)

Yes! onion bread! i used braggs instead of the nama shoyu and i only use a quarter cup. Also I add half an apple ;)
Oh and the coconuts... If I can open 4, you can definetly open 1! Although if I could get my bf to do it for me I think I would suddenly "not be strong enough to cut into them" ;)

well, congrats, sweet Heidi. I wish you all the best. I am just starting a physical exercise program and have been juicing lots of stuff. I don't have my hubby's full support of raw yet, so we will be doing a percent raw instead if and when we can gradually wean off the other stuff Last night we probably ate 80% raw. That is pretty good, but it is really easy right now while the garden is producing so well. . .

best of luck

high 5 to hiho!

Hey there!

Congrats! I'm scared too! I'm starting my day 1 tomorrow. I feel I need to kick it into high gear now so I don't freak come August 1st.

Good luck! See you on the boards

You'll do great because you've had plenty of practice! Plus? Sam is doing it so that makes it all that much easier.

I guess I'd better stock up on the fruits and veggies (and not baked potatoes... I'm still laughing about that snafu!)

PS- wine isn't cooked... maybe I could do this raw food thing. KIDDING!

Happy Friday! Thought I'd let someone else take the reins today and share with you an interesting topic. How Raw Diets Can Make a Difference Transitioning to a raw food diet is often thought of as only a personal choice, as a journey that one individually decides to embark on for whatever reason, whether it be ethical or health-related or some other reason entirely. But the Examiner in Sacramento suggests an interesting idea involving raw food diets that could potentially make a difference in the greater community. The social problem that the Examiner discusses is the city's increased problems with homelessness among seniors. The article reports that Sacramento has seen a sharp rise in the elderly being displaced, resulting from what many speculate the aging of the Baby Boomer generation. The article goes on to posit a refreshing new idea that would offer homeless seniors both a source of sustaining and sustainable nutrition and that would also give them something rewarding ...

Goodies

So it had been quite awhile since Yardsnacker and I had our cupboards full of our favorite raw treats and supplements so this past Saturday we finally stocked up at our local raw store, Raw Vegan Source (they mentioned they were in the process of updating their website so not sure it's really up to snuff just yet but for those interested they do ship nationally). Just thought I'd share some of the things we bought. Some of the things we picked up were definitely splurges or rather, new for us. Such as this candy bar. It was pretty good. I thought the chocolate itself could use more sweetening but the filling was delicious! If you're not familiar with raw caramel it's not ooey-gooey like you'd typically find in conventional candy. This has a drier texture - just no t gooey - but was perfectly sweet and satisfying li ke caramel. To me anyway, which is all that counted at the time. :) On the way home we snarfed this raw hummus with Italian-seasoned flax cr ackers. I...

Raw Fu Challenge Update - First 10 Days

The first 10 days of the 100 day Raw Fu challenge has been a success for me. I managed to lose five whole pounds. Yippee! And I was relatively all raw except I did have a couple spoonfuls of organic peanut butter and if you have read Yardsnacker 's recent post he rats on me, er, I mean he merely mentions that I had some cooked food brought down by a neighbor (he included a pic of my leftovers). If you haven't read it, go ahead and then come back here and read the rest of my post. Hurry. Okay, so our neighbor knows we eat "healthy" but doesn't know the full extent of it so when he offered us this meal he wasn't sure if Sam would eat it because it had some fish cake in it (I wasn't sure I'd eat it either - fish cake sounds wrong). He and his family are so nice and generous that I had to accept the meal (they're always giving Sam stuff, I'm a lucky recipient by default - guess they like him better then me. boo hoo!). It was a rice cake dish (th...
