Boiled candy

How bad is boiled candy? I'm thinking of munching on boiled candy when I am desperate: run out of juice, energy low, on the road ... relative to say a sandwich or a similar snack, boiled lollies can't be too bad? No protein so no cooked protein. I find I am sensitive to cooked protein and additives ...

Then in a blender, toss the soaked nuts, 2 cups water. Blend thoroughly. Then put the mixture in a cheese cloth bag and strain. This is superquic...

Toss into a blender. Garnish with coriander. It took me five minutes to make. I had all the ingredients exc...

I lost a lot of weight on Wai's diet and this was while I was eating munch food - I went down to 48 kilos (I'm 150cm tall). I was constantly hungry though for cooked foods and I know it wasn't real hunger because fruit didn't appeal to me at those times. Maybe it's because I was still eating munch f...

Here is a meal I had this afternoon. I slapped together some hummus I had made yesterday, olives and flaxseed cracker bread. The hummus is OK, don't really like it that much; the crackers were good. At least it filled me up. I wasn't left craving more and more food. http://i182.photobucket.com/album...

Raw vegan adapted

I am starting a raw vegan diet for a few reasons: * more variety: not only raw fruits, nuts and seeds but also raw veggies, beans, legumes and grains; many cookbooks with raw vegan recipes, none really with Wai's diet * I can prepare meals that resemble and taste similar to the cooked version - help...

I know the exact feeling about looking much younger than your age. I was asked for my ID when entering clubs and casinos when I was 31. When I was 39 and applied for a job and told them my age, the boss said he thought I was 16! People say I'm lucky to look so young for my age but like Michael, peop...

It depends what you mean by difficult. For me, the cravings and boredom are difficult. I know my health won't be optimal on this diet but it's as close to Wai's diet that I can get for the time being. It's better than what I was eating before and I know from past experience that if I eat cooked munc...

I forgot to add I will not be neglecting the fruit component. So it's a raw vegan diet + fruit + raw animal foods. I guess it's similar to Wai's diet but the munch food component is way over what Wai allows.

Find less need for sleep - why?

When I was following wai's diet a few years ago, after a week or two, I found I needed very little sleep. I would go to bed at midnight, sometimes 1am and then wake up spontaneously at 6am. Normally I need 9-10 hours sleep and I am not a morning person by any means. Reading some testimonies on the n...

I guess I'll have to bring out the blender and start juicing again (tangerines not oranges). I won't add o.o and see if I like it better. I don't really fancy this: from memory, it was really messy with the pulp and oil separating out after the juice had been sitting for a while (I know I should be ...
