When you crave cooked starches does that mean you need more fruit carbs?

MEDICAL ADVICE NEEDED- ANTIBIOTICS

Howdy All, I've been getting severe headaches daily for about 2 weeks straight now, only appears to be on the left side of my head. I have an enlarged lymph node behind my left ear. Went to the doctor today and I left just as uninformed as before I went =/ She told me that it was probably a sinus infection causing the fluid to not drain from my ear properly and proceeded to prescribe me a whole bunch of antibiotics and nasal sprays and lotions and potions. I most certainly don't want to go down…See More

Need Help..Cross Country Training

Hello All :) I've been out of the exercise scene for faaaaaaar too long now (about 5months) and I really want to get back on track. I've decided to join a running club in the new year particularly for cross country but the thing is I've never been much of a runner (although I love it when I get into it). My dillema is that the area I live in is not very safe so I can't get much training out on the 'ol open road. Luckily the club offers 2 days a week of track training and club runs on Sundays so…See More

I'm a hazard to myself

I've been keeping this all to myself for a while and really feel like a need to share it with someone, and what better place to do it than my favourite place in the world. In the past I've had a huge problem with food and relying on it for comfort. The tranisiton from SAD to vegan was overnight and easy for me, I never looked back. I had a bit of a rocky start to HCRV but after I read 811, I got it right and had completely smooth sailing for about 3 months. Felt the best I have ever in my life.…See More

DESPERATELY need help..

So over the past week or so I have been binging on cooked food, mainly bread, pasta, and veggie soups.. I have never felt this ill in my life.. my joints are aching, my kidneys hurt so much I can barely stand up straight, and I cant keep anything, including fruit down. I seem to be going in a vicious cycle.. I feel ill and as a result dont eat enough fruit which then leads to the desperate binging on cooked carbs.. I realize this all started as a result of not eating enough fruit but I feel…See More

Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to 30BaD. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member). We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.: I found DR's videos on youtube while exploring raw veganism out of interest. I've always loved fruit and when I found a way of eating that was based on fruit that I could actually thrive on, I was all in! The simplicity of the lifestyle and the benefit it has for not only my health but the lives of all other creatures on earth is something I'm very passionate about =]

What is your gender? PLEASE NOTE: To enhance the community experience, profile pics of yourself are *REQUIRED* to gain membership. Membership will be declined otherwise.: womyn

Please tell us about your dietary inclinations:: I really want to be LFRV and just need some guidance

Reading "The 80-10-10 Diet" by Dr Doug Graham is vital for succeeding on this lifestyle. Please acquire this book as soon as possible.: I will read the book again!!

My favourite books/movies/authors/pastimes are....: Favourite books= 80/10/10, Enders Game
Movies = Star Wars, Gorillas in the Mist, Comedies! (far too many favourites to list them all)
My guitar is my best friend and i love anything to do with music. I also love being active, whatever it is as long as I'm moving my body. I'm always up for an adventure and try seek out one whenever i can! Other pastimes include stuffing my face with as much fruit as i can find =D

Try every two days, eliminating from right to left, this is how I transitioned, fruit tastes much sweeter and attractive now!

Good Luck!

You should hang out with us other jozi-fruits, there are about 6 of us that talk to each other and get together.

On your question about low-cost bananas: Have you been to the jhb fresh produce market? I get most of my fruit there. It's by far the most economical and often the best quality compared to any supermarkets, fruit&veg and even woolies. 18kg boxes of bananas go for as little as R50, and my current favourite, persimmons, I get boxes of 120 persimmons also for R50 :) That way I can basically live off fruit for R200-300 a week!

My email is bjornleistner@gmail.com - shout if you want to meet up with us other fruitbats, we would all love it! The more of us there are, the stronger our message becomes
