The headaches are …
The headaches are brutal, but sooooo well worth it. I am happy coffee is out of my life!!
I got headaches …
I got headaches from stopping drinking coffee too.
wonderful!! Embrace …
wonderful!! Embrace the detox, you will get to the other side!!
Thank you for …
Thank you for discussing this with us. Even tho I have been mostly raw for 4 months, I am doing a lot of juicing right now which is really kicking in the detox and weight loss.
giggle!!
How about …
giggle!!
How about surfing the net and finding real super yum raw recipes that you enjoy so much while your family eats cooked– therefore you don’t feel deprived as you are radiantly glowing!!!!
My husband, …
My husband, unfortunately, is fairly anti-veggie. Meat and potatoes are his staples. I have no clue how his cholestorol can be better than mine! lol
The skin problems …
The skin problems is just detox, you release toxins through the skin– it irritates it and you get break outs. Give it some time, and it will balance out. Break outs in the beginning are completely normal. Try not to mix fat with fruit (ie. nut/seeds w/ fruit).
Yay!!!
Yay!!!
Awesome, Thank You …
Awesome, Thank You so much!!!
Do what your heart …
Do what your heart desires!! Personally, I think the best is to do things in balance, sometimes one extreme pushes you to the other extreme. Nothing wrong with adding more and more raw foods and finding recipes that your entire family enjoys
Yes its terrible. …
Yes its terrible. Look into getting food from local farmers– super fresh and cheaper as well
You might actually …
You might actually need the extra fat. I’ve been adding extra hemp seeds and other seeds in my diet lately and it has been helping A LOT. The fats are important for our neurological system. I too can’t fall asleep if I’m too hungry, or stay asleep long if I’m hungry– more hungry, less sleep. Its a sign to eat a little extra for dinner, or have a heavier lunch.
Yes, go at the pace …
Yes, go at the pace that is most comfortable for you. It is normal to have emotional ups and downs, but no need to torture yourself!! Best always to listen to your body!
After 18 days on …
After 18 days on Raw food, I am going back to meat, I lost weight and will stay with the “greens” but it made my skin worst.
I think because of too many fruits.
I am starting now a yeast free diet .
just found you… …
just found you…have 55 back vlogs to watch
While I don’t plan …
While I don’t plan to go raw myself I like your videos, they give alot of insperation. Thank you for uploading them!
sometimes i can …
sometimes i can sleep and wake up after 6 hours and not be tired, which is totally fine. other times i can’t fall asleep and i lay in the bed frustrated and usually just get up and do something so i dont feel like im wasting time laying there doing nothing. the lighter i eat, the worse it gets, and thats when i unfortunately gravitate towards the nuts to try to knock myself out.
Check out the movie …
Check out the movie “Food Inc” for more on this idea.
I want to go 100% …
I want to go 100% but my husband and daughter insist on cooked so it’s very hard to watch them enjoy the yummy cooked things I once enjoyed. Usually I end up falling back into into it. It’s a cycle I cant seem to break. i wanted to do a master cleanse and at the end when I introduce foods back, I would eat raw. What do you think?
you know what …
you know what really stinks?
Well I mean not this vid! I’ve been following for maybe a week and I’m slowly incorporating more raw into my diet, but it’s hard to get organic in california where I am…it’s so expensive!
I found out yesterday that apparently all food before sometime in like the 1940′s was completely organic. THEN, they introduced insecticides and preservatives. Weird isn’t it?
what do you mean? …
what do you mean? do you get insomnia?
can’t sleep on raw. …
can’t sleep on raw. maybe its just me
thanks for this. i …
that i didnt think was normal…i really broke down emotionally as well. but after research and asking around i realized it’s very normal and “okay”!
thanks for this. i had a hard time when i first tried raw overnight, lots of headaches and depression
now i’m transitioning very very slowly and feel much better
