Hi from our 6th day of detox at the Spa here in Thailand as we crave food so badly it's not even funny....

We had to share this with all you Blogcats - having met 2 people that follow their purpose to eat raw food (she lost 160 lbs in weight)...

Full interview and comment love at:

That'd be terrific for me, except for the loss of potatoes and rice. I love my starch and cannot imagine trying to sneak either of those into my food raw. The potatoes would be alright, but the texture would wrong. The rice, well, that'll never fly. And no bread?! No can do. I eat a lot of fruits and veggies, but man cannot live on...err...carrots alone.

I think the raw lifestyle is very admirable, and doesn't seem too difficult with the help of experiences raw eaters. I know I'm not ready to take that plunge yet, because I love pasta too much and eat it nearly every day... BUT I have heard that once you eat raw for a while, when you eat non-raw food that you feel really gross, so that encourages you to continue eating raw. Good luck to you! You can totally do it

  Well its 'all in moderation' for us and despite detox we don't intend to go 100% raw.
  
  Smells just wouldn't be the same again!

Eating raw foods! Good luck but I still prefer mine cooked and generally use a bit of meat grease to give it a flavor that I can tolerate :-))

I say go for it if it works for the people trying it. Bit extreme for me, but I LOVE lots of fruits and veggies anyway.

There has been a trend in the last few years for Detoxing and eating raw foods, I have tried both success, however I still prefer most of my foods cooked or at least steamed or stir fried.
