Where do you get your produce? Who gives you bulk discounts? Where do you go when you run out of ripe bananas?

Bart, Great idea on the NYC group!
Hey all NYC area people: I get all my food from this organic delivery service
doortodoororganics.com, ask for Danny, he runs this area (east usa location).
I buy everything in bulk for the following reasons:
1. If buy in bulk, you automatically eat so so many more mono meals, which is really what advanced 811 is all about - and THE goal as far as I'm concerned.
2. You save money
3. You don't have to go to the supermarket and be tempted with all kinds of stuff that you just shouldn't have to look at anymore...
4. Buying organic is where it's at! support the industry!
5. this delivery service literally drops the stuff at your door, so you save so much time.
6. If you're struggling with 811, you will stick with it better, b/c with all this massive amount of produce to eat (before it goes bad) you just eat it all up and don't consider buying other stuff that won't be good for you!
So go for it, order by the CASE only - get into mono eating, finally get your head in the game - go 811 hard core and become elite!
FYI I have 3 refrigirators! LOL, if yo have the space, you can buy good low cost refrigerators for less than $200.! (there are 5 people in my family and they also eat mostly 811, so maybe you'll only need 2 fridges if you aren't feeding so many people!)

I did not like Door to Door's mangoes. I got much better ones in CC Phila at the fruit carts or the Indian store. The bananas and oranges are wonderful, as are the cherries, strawberries, and blueberries. :)

I've bought their mangoes several times, and each time, I got a different brand and different quality. It's a bit of hit and miss. I got good ones last week: "aztlan" company, "kent" type.

I just signed up with door to door... How do you order cases from them? I signed up for the fruit box but I don't think it's enough... If I order cases,is it cheaper?
Thanks!

I don't go through the website. I email danny at danny@doortodoororganics.com, tell him that you're interested in ordering by the case (Thank You to Michael, who was so awesome to turn me onto this service).

Talk to the raw house people, they have posts on here and maybe a group if you search.
Lol! Great story, great ending!
I can't think of which MC Hammer song that's from???
ya thats why we decided florida, more economical, plus we have family there
Lynda, don't deprive yourself by limiting yourself to no more than 3 dates a day. I used to eat no more than 2 a day because I was worried about all that sugar and calories but I one day last year I ate 120 medjool dates in one day. (3 smoothies wit…
i pushed back dinner too long tonight and then somebody on facebook talked about his falafels and had pics.. I went running for my oranges at that point...
After 6 months of 811, I ate vegan cooked food again for 2-3 months. Definitely lost my 6-pack and got some moobs. There's still some excess fat below my pectoral muscles, which is quite agitating. ha. I know it will leave in time.
And I've heard than for women, strengthening your pecs gives you more firmness and lift in your actual breasts, kind of like how bodybuilders strengthen their brachialis to make the biceps brachii "pop."
I wonder if some of it has to do with HGH levels via exercise, and that maybe affecting estrogen/testosterone balance? Just an unresearched hypothesis.
Same here, at least 100 khadrawys if I'm mono-ing on dates. Today I had 12 oranges for breakfast, and then probably 30-40 dates (which are small than medjool). (no dinner - somehow wasn't hungry even after a huge training day yesterday)
Epic win.
nice. lol.
Thanks! I just read the book, that's what reminded me (great book).
I will be anxiously awaiting your 811 trial log. Good luck.

We have all heard the saying that change is inevitable. And while the changes we are making in our lives are ultimately so we can become our best selves, they aren't always easy.
It means waking up every morning and knowing that you are going to acc…
