Comments for Raw Weight Loss http://rawweightloss.wordpress.com I'm going raw. Two pregnancies, and many, many pounds that simply won't come off no matter the diet. Raw, simply feels right. I'll be journaling my adventure here.

Except that I eat raw, I haven't lost anymore weight after the first 30 lbs. I startedout at 230 lbs and now I am 200 and I cannot seem to budge. Being raw has resolved many of my issues: I feel better, my insommnia is gone, my depression is gone, my IBS is gone. I know the missing link is exercise...I have trouble motivating myself so there I am. Anyway I will make myself exercise and see if that helps with melting the pounds off. Also I can relate to comments about the glow, people keep telling me I look different that there is something different about me. My name is Dea and I wanted you to know that I can really relate to your story. Hang in there, I know its especially hard to stay raw when u r cooking for a family. My husband and my step kids are not raw but have now transitioned to a mostly vegan diet..except for the 10 yr old who is stubborn and won't let go of....hotdogs :) Anyway gotta run now, feel free to drop me a line anytime if you need support, blessings Dea Hi,

Did you join the challenge??? I had to drop out for this month, (destails on my blog, & posted at RFT about it) but am trying to do smoothies only right now, then go to juicing, the water fasting, alternating as I'm led (& as finances dictate! lol!) I'm glad you & your hubby are aware of how the junk food's making you feel & are ready to get back to doing what you know it takes to feel better & get healthier by the day! This is the time, when organic produce is abundant & more affordable, & the sun is shining! I'm praying for your victory, & strength to resist the temptations we face daily, & that you will be a source of encouragement & support for each other! One day at a time! ~Anastazia~ You’re welcome!

I just joined a 30 day 100% raw challenge at Raw Food Talk, are you a member there? If so, what's the name you go by there? (It's so hard to remember everyone's nicknames, as opposed to real names..) Even after 2 days, I'm noticing the difference...wish I did as much on 80% raw, but it's only when I'm 100% that I really feel my body striving towards restored health quickly! Have a wonderful July! ~Anastazia~ So how are you doing, are you raw again? I just joined a 30 day 100% raw challenge at Raw Food Talk, are you a member there? If so, what’s the name you go by there?

There is a lot of salt in most cooked food. I’m still hiding from temptations. Its working for me right now although I wish I didn’t have to worry about temptations. Perhaps in time… Take care.

You might try eating or juicing celery or tomatoes, which both have a good amount of natural sodium. As you become more and more detoxed, the craving should go away. If you can manage to avoid salt for a couple of weeks, you'll probably lose the craving altogether... Good luck! The hotdogs sound like you might be craving salt - which is likely a detox symptom.
