Guest guest Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 __ MarMatraz radiantstepone 3/1/2010 10:00:36 P.M. Eastern Standard Time Subj: Any one do Raw or vegan? Hello, I was wondering if anyone was into raw or vegan foods. I unfortunately, and surprisingly, hate to be in the kitchen. (I think it has to do with some deep rooted emotional issues from childhood) Now I have 3 children to feed, so it is a necessity. I used to (in my 20's and 30's) just eat whatever vegetarian foods filled me up on the run. But now with 3 little ones and a new self awareness of my own diet, I need to revamp my thinking. Part of that shift finds me thinking if I am off sugar, I might as well go all the way (and go raw, vegan). And spend a little more time in the kitchen, preparing really exciting new foods. Anyone on that path? Am I getting too ahead of myself? I know, start with breakfast. I am a typical sugar addict, I need to do it all NOW! LOL! Thanks! Maria In a message dated 2/28/2010 5:24:25 P.M.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Mel, Yes, naturally and gradually. That is my goal, that is really what I'd like to progress to, have my final step be eating mostly or completely raw and vegan. I know it will take quite some time, as I have been eating very far from raw/vegan. I will try and not force it. Thanks! Maria In a message dated 3/2/2010 9:28:54 A.M.

I wouldn't set yourself the *task*though of going vegan, say - things will change a lot for you as you do the food, and as you keep showing up with willingness to see what unfolds. My suggestion is not to force anything.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Hi Maria, well I'm not vegan or doing raw food. Seems like to go that way on top of RR would be a whole lot at once!

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Yes, I think too much. It will be a long term goal. I am struggling with eating breakfast right now.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Maria, I know the feeling. I had a hard time with breakfast when I started. I didn't eat in the mornings, pushing my breakfast off until I'd been up 4 hours or so. Oh how I bargained too LOL. I would just have soy milk at first trying to rationalize since there was fiber I was getting my brown . Then I moved to scrambled eggs and strawberries, where the berries were the " brown " . But in reality I was moving forward and eventually got the whole breakfast down with enough protein, a brown and within an hour. My body was grateful for that.
