Guest guest Report post Posted July 13, 2002 yes, to be raw, meens you only eat raw fruits and vegetables and nothing else. It's the healthiest diet you can possibly adapt. As long as you make sure to have the right balance of different fruits ad veggies everyday, you should have no problems with it.

Guest guest Report post Posted July 15, 2002 Hi Alexandra, Am hoping you have a quick veggie recipe (or so) to share here. This it a good time of year for sprout salad. I tend to go raw more in warm weather and realize that " sprouted " is yum. I ate Essene bread for a while but enjoy the regular sprouted grain more.

Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2003 Hello there - boredom? With Veggie foods? I've run into periods where, as a raw vegan it can get tough - but if you're a " cooking " type of person, the variety of foods is incredible. It takes some research, but there are really great cookbooks out there for those who do not eat animal flesh. Some of the Bocca products can add zing to a diet, ways of preparing veggies and fruits can provide real variety to a diet. Just like when you were eating hamburgers and frenchfries cooked in animal fat - if you ate steak every night you'd be bored in no time - well - the same holds true with vegetarian foods - add some variety and spices - make some really creative salads, toss some odd fruits into the mix, fool around with nuts and legumes for protien, have at it with dried fruits for texture - no reason to exist on pasta! Get excited about what you're preparing, get creative and enjoy! Cheers STeve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest guest Report post Posted March 11, 2003 Hi Queen! I'm new to the group, too, although a long-time vegetarian. I agree with the other responses - no need to get bored being veggie. I have found that spices are indeed the spice of life. My life hasn't been the same since I found cumin! I also like to mix things up by trying new combinations of otherwise " boring " foods. There's great resources on the web and almost every grocery store carries meat-alternatives now.

Guest guest Report post Posted October 26, 2003 Hi Sapphire Moon - welcome to the list. Jo - saphire_moon_2002 Sunday, October 26, 2003 4:53 AM New to the Group Hey Everyone, I am a new vegan. I shouldn't even say 100% vegan .. im attempting 100% but there r still some things out there that slip by my vegan radar. I havent been 98% vegan for too long. Just a few mnths and have already noticed a big difference in not only the way my body feels but other things as well...I do have a 4 1/2 yr old daughter who is doing quite well on the diet.. altho she does still ask occasionally about going to mcdonalds for a garden salad but nothing else cuz they "are made from animals".. she is beyond compassionate towards all animals and im happy that she is young enough where it is easier to instill this lifestyle and even if she doesnt stay vegan she will at least have better health in the future... I live in Canada.. in a little city.. but there is still some health food stores but sometimes books and so forth aren't available.. i was jus wondering if there any other canadians on this list?? well thats it for now ...i have already learned quite a bit from previous msgs...

Guest guest Report post Posted October 29, 2003 Hi, I'm from Toronto, Canada I have been on the list for a while but I don't have much of a chance to post, I have a 17 month old son and recently went back to work. I think its great that your daughter is excepting her new diet, your lucky I'm sure allot of parents would have a much harder time. My son is also vegan and it is very challenging at his age, he is very picky, we have good days and bad days but the older he gets we have more good than bad. How is your family excepting your new diet? I think one of the hardest things about becoming vegan is dealing with your family especially when you have children. well good luck, Tina saphire_moon_2002 <taz121798 wrote: Hey Everyone, I am a new vegan.

Guest guest Report post Posted October 29, 2003 Hi Tina It's difficult to find the time to join in much when you have a young family, but it's good to hear from you. I think you are doing the best for your son, by feeding him a vegan diet.
