"I responded to your identical blog post. I think you might want to check out the book "The Four Hour Body". Not for the diet, but somewhere in the book he has elite athletes keep track of what they buy at the grocery store. The vegan…"

indigo commented on Kenda's blog post Maintaining body composition while eating raw

"I'd suggest tracking your food. The big question will be one of whether or not you are getting enough calories. Then look at macronutrients. The WHO says women need about 55 grams of protein a day, but your trainer could say you need as much as…"

"The trick is to eat as seasonally as possible and keep an eye on your local farmer's market, the supermarket flyers, and membership stores. I buy the vast majority of my fruit at Costco, and greens and veggies at the farmer's market.…"

Clearing Space

Earlier this year my husband and I decided that we would make some improvements to our home. We've purchased and are having installed some maple flooring. We are also having the house painted inside, from top to bottom. It's going to look beautiful.We also decided to do something else. We have decided to do a major cleanup of our home. We both have been acquiring quite a bit of stuff for some time. About a week ago, I picked up some moving boxes and I am pretending to move. We are going…See More

How did you hear about Raw Food Rehab?: you tube

What percentage of your current diet would you estimate is raw foods? (this answer many change over time): right now - 100%

How are you hoping this community can best support you in your journey? (moral support, transition advice, recipes, inspiration, fitness tips, etc): Mostly, I really want to be exposed to people who 'get it'. I have an incredible amount of support from my husband, who has no interest in doing this himself. Outside of that, and what support I get online, none of my friends or family are particularly supportive.

RFR Oath: I acknowledge that everyone is at a different point along their health journey and I will respect the individual progress and needs of others as they make lifestyle choices and changes of their own. I promise to do my best to keep this community drama free. I understand that posting inappropriate material, personal attacks, unapproved solicitations or spamming of any kind can result in administrative action and/or removal from this community. I pledge to be respectful even if I do not agree with another member's opinion. Agreed?: completely

I decided to try some juicing today. This morning I made a green juice that had pineapple, apples, cucumber, aloe, lemon and lime. This afternoon I've made a carrot and celery based juice with red pepper and lemon juice. Reminding my gentle readers that I'm producing juice for two (my DIL is juicing as well), this is a lot of work! I have yet to reach the coveted two quart point, rather I seem to be…

Does Easing Into It Make It Easier?

Posted on August 14, 2011 at 9:15am 5 Comments 2 Likes

I'm so crazy to start my juice feast, I'm just going to start easing myself into it today. I'm thinking I'll do a couple of days of green smoothie/fruit/salad and then a day or two of juice/green smoothie/fruit. I'll get some experimenting done with the nut milk bags. I'll get to start experimenting with flavor profiles.

This Really Does Something For Me

Posted on August 11, 2011 at 9:01am 2 Comments 2 Likes

Vacation went pretty nicely (aside from figuring I'm allergic to oysters - eeewwww). I wasn't as highly raw as I'd have liked to have been, but I did eat fruit and a salad every day. When I got home, though, I felt terrible. My face was puffy and I was up five pounds on top of being up about ten pounds (I suspect meds I've been taking for bursitis, but who knows).

how you think and speak,what you do: what you eat, what you drink, when you move your body, when you sleep, how you will respond to any situation.
