We'...Thanks everyone for sharing my excitement! We're almost done and I CANNOT wait to give birth! ;-)<br /><br />Jill,<br />Sorry to hear that you're having such a difficult time transitioning to raw. My approach is to be very gentle with ourselves, starting from where we are at and taking it one step at a time. In my experience, if you go faster than your mind/body is ready, then you will experience cravings. I like to look at it from the perspective of adding more raw foods in your diet rather than stopping to eat cooked foods. It took us something like 5 or 6 years to transition to a fully raw diet. Plus, to eat 100% raw isn't for everyone, nor is it necessary either in order to reap health benefits. In fact, Don and I have backed off to a high raw diet of about 80% in the last couple of years. Whatever feels right for you is key!<br /><br />But back to your comment... As you pointed out, raw food is so not about deprivation! I would suggest adding more variety to your diet like crackers, kale chips, granola bars... Fun and tasty snacks that will keep your body and mind interested; just plain fruit and salad can get very boring! If you don't already have one, I would strongly recommend investing in a dehydrator so that it opens up new possibilities in terms of textures, temperatures and flavors.<br /><br />Hope this helps!<br /><br />Blessings on your journey,<br />CarmellaMarie Madeleine Carmellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03963055581416339860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-173124950637983780.post-20936360437884439782010-11-03T22:25:45.301-04:002010-11-03T22:25:45.301-04:00I need help!

I do a green drink in the morning, a salad for lunch, apples for snacks, then at dinner I just fall apart. I try to curb my carb-attacks by eating nuts, but then I eat too many of those, too! Advice, please! I admire you so much, and I'm in love with all of the fun, creative recipes you share. You prove that being raw doesn't mean deprivation!
