Filed under: Food
For those of you who don’t read actively over at Happy Foody, I wanted to make sure you knew about our One Week Raw Challenge…with prizes! I have also just begun to offer “Raw Life Coaching” for those foodies wanting to take it up to the next level…there are so many exciting things happening over there. Be sure to check it out!

Sorry, I could never do that. I need my veggies to be cooked–stir-fries, home-made soup–and I love grains too much (not sprouted grains)!
But good luck to those who accept your challenge.

Sara, Des Moines Register columnist Rekha Basu just published a piece about the raw foods movement!

I check your site periodically, but hadn’t been here in a while. Hubby and I just got finished watching several youtube videos on people who are on a raw food diet and although we aren’t going RAW we have decided to make a bigger effort to change our diet to look less like the S.A.D. way of eating. I think hubby said he wanted to start a 2 month challenge. We just went through our pantry today and got a lot of stuff bagged up to give to a friend who recently lost her job and still eats SAD. We are a long way from getting our diet to where it should be but little changes. I hope that during this next two months we will gain a new appreciation for fresh raw produce!!!
Anyway all that to say. . . have you ever made any youtube videos? I would love to see you on youtube!

Just wanted to say I am loving your blog! I was linked to it from an AP mama in an online forum I belong to. We share many of the same interests (I am a photographer as well) and I have enjoyed reading things from your perspective.
Thanks for sharing your faith so openly, and God bless you as you walk this journey!
Blessings,
Summer Knobloch

I adore this blog, by the way. You’re definitely (who my husband would call) one of my imaginary friends.
So, do you recommend going RAW while breast-feeding?

Amber…thanks for the kind words!
I’d love to meet you in person. Are you on our tour route? About breastfeeing…check out this link: http://www.rawfoodtalk.com/archive/index.php/t-11524.html
or google “raw food breastfeeding” and you’ll see quite a few. There is no reason to not go raw while you are breastfeeding…it’s optimal nutrition for you and the baby. I would probably take a high quality whole foods supplement to make sure you’re getting enough of what you need and continue to drink lots of water.

Check out my friend’s raw food site. http://sarah811.blogspot.com/ She has been completely raw for over a year and has blogged about it the whole time. They are church planters in the DFW area.

I was excited to see this post. I just started eating raw two weeks ago. Found some great raw food recipes online. Feeling better already – really!

My problem with raw was somehow getting my family onboard. I guess I will have to be satisfied that we are at least vegetarian. (On another note, a raw diet did seem to give me too much sugar, and it seemed to alter my system in unhealthy ways. So now I’m about 1/2 raw.)
