Hi

Hello gone raw friends…anyone in NJ? I am new at raw foods and headed towards 100% raw…i am so excited after reading some books and trying this way of being out..i still wake up and think about bacon and eggs some days, other days i make a terrific green drink…i wonder if anyone has any meal plans set up already? thank you for the site, i am enjoying and appreciating all your messages!

    hey there. i tried replying to the other forum topic you started but it disappeared on me.

    anyway,

    1) when i typed “meal plan” in the forums section i got a whole bunch of thread where people listed what they ate.

    2) this is a great one that has helped me a lot: http://www.lytnyc.com/fyi_xml/ComboSheet.pdf it has suggestions for transitional stages, SIMPLE food combining, etc…

    3) natalia rose’s books are very educational in terms of meal plans and the logic behind them (just close your eyes for the non-vegan parts ;) )

    4) my daily ritual goes like this:

    a few glasses of water with lemon
    morning juice
    {wait 30 minutes, or more, until i’m hungry}
    green smoothie (i make mine almost black with greens, but i’ve worked up to that)

    fruit until noon if still hungry

    LUNCH
    green smoothie (either banana & sub-acid fruit based, or tomato-celery-cuke based—more of a soup)
    OR sometimes a chopped salad of greens, celery, tomato etc…

    DINNER
    HUGE green salad with raw dressing and 1/2 avocado if desired
    with,
    (raw) marinated greens, or veggie ribbons and sauce, or raw-sagna, or raw-violi, or other dishes on this site…
    OR
    (not raw) steamed veggies, or cooked starch like quinoa

    hope that helps. good luck!

  • Thank you so much , yes it helps! i erased my last topic because it sounded like a complaint kind of when i read it…i also love that you responded because this is so new and i am feeling alone in the kitchen…i think i am detoxing today and i am having a tough time just getting off my couch, i just want to sit with a blanket on and have somebody else prepare my raw food for me, so thats why i want to see how you all do this everyday and still take care of the rest of your family/life! this helps, thanks a bunch!
