Thinking about quitting (hormones still out of wack)

I've been on the sample diet for 3.5 months now. My complexion is so terrible, it is way worse than it was before. I am thinking about quitting, but I love the diet part. It is very easy for me to eat like this, but my face is so red now, I have red spots everywhere. Before I had acne but at least i...

Traveling + brazil nut freshness

How long will Brazil nuts keep after you have shelled them? I'm flying next week to Toronto and will be out and about seeing the city, so Brazil nuts seem like a convenient option for the plane and during the day. I'd rather shell them beforehand I leave home, though. I'll only be gone for 5 days, t...

OJ and headache

than I am now, but I'm not doing it right. Right now I drink 1/2 L over the course of the day, with lots of whole fruits + oil. This is very inconvenient, of course. Problem is whenever I drink OJ for an extended amount of time, I end up with a headache. I make sure to drink really small sips, and d...

Hi Anjana, I've experienced some similar things to you. When I first started eating egg yolks, I mixed it with banana and had the most horrible rumbling/ bloated gassy feeling, it was very uncomfortable. Now I only mix yolk with orange juice, as it has the least amount of fiber in it, and I really d...

Thank you guys, this is exactly what I needed to hear. It's funny Candela, because I was thinking the exact same thing about maybe it's good I have to deal with all the social issues it brings up for me. Clear skin is not everything. I mean, a main reason I'm doing this diet is because of vanity, bu...

Please encourage me/ is this progress?

I'm 3.5 weeks into 100% Wai diet, and my face is horrible. It's so much worse than it was before, although I've always used topical products and now I'm using none. I still have white/yellow heads, though fewer than the first 2 weeks. Still getting cysts--several over and over in the same area. Skin...

Two Weeks- Observations Skin - Ack! The left side of my face is terribly broken out, all over. Never been this bad. Tons of little whiteheads, read patches and bumps, a few cysts. The right side isn't perfectly clear but is nowhere near as bad. Looking at my face up close, there is tons of gunk clo...

Thank you for the responses, they are very helpful. I will keep my meals small and frequent. This diet is so different, it does take some retraining of old eating patterns.

Candida?

So I like this diet, BUT, now my candida is now out of control. I have tried to find as much as I could from old posts, and basically they say that controlling candida relates to energy management/ preventing sugar spikes and lows. I have to keep my blood sugar level low and constant to avoid feedin...

Cause it's messy...

I like to keep the bottle top on but can't do that with a straw, and I don't want to keep taking the straw in and out of the bottle because its all sticky and juicy. :roll:

Hmm, maybe I just need more time get used to it.

It's sticky and sour tasting, covers my tongue and teeth. By afternoon time I can scrape the coating off my teeth. I think it's from the concentrated sugar in oj, and how the bacteria in your mouth feed off it--you know the taste that is left in your mouth after you eat a bunch of candy or a sweet p...

Drinking OJ= coated mouth

Is anyone else bothered by the coating you get all over your tongue and teeth from sipping oj all day? I feel like it makes my breath smell, and one of my favorite things about a raw diet is that you generally have a clean mouth feeling after eating, and no stinky breath. I've tried sipping through ...

satisfaction, energy, acne

After doing the sample diet for a week, here are my observations: I am generally physically satisfied. Was doing raw before but always had cravings, now walking through stores and smelling cooked food doesn't even phase me. I LIKE eating tons of fruit and fat, but in my head it still doesn't seem li...
