"I'm so glad you asked about this because I was wondering about it as well. Before going raw (about 50 days ago), I always knew when I would start because of cramping, boobs hurting, chocolate craving.... Lol. I would always need a lot of…"

"i'm a newb as well... and i have a citrus press, omega 8006 (great for frozen fruit sorbets, or whatever you want to call them), blentec, grapefruit spoon, citrus peeler, spiralizer, julliene peeler, food processor... quite a bit of stuff, but…"

Kerrigan replied to Shelah Mahan's discussion Newbie here, what kitchen appliances are a must have?

"Your stomach is simply accustomed to eating cooked food which is more calorie-dense so you need to eat less bites than you would when consuming an equal amount (in calories) of fruit. What Douglas Graham recommended in 80-10-10 is to eat one more…"

"Ooh my I just saw the Wildside video of Matt Monarch's posted a couple years ago by Winlord. This deserves an "OMG"! I had been going back and forth between the vitamix and blendtec for months but after seeing this today, i think i am…"

"What made you go with the Blendtec over the Vitamix? I have read comparisons but people seem to really like them both."

"For most women eating1,000 calories at a meal is completely unnecessary, unless you are eating only twice a day. I tend to eat 3-4 times a day."

Shelah Mahan replied to Shelah Mahan's discussion Newbie here, what kitchen appliances are a must have?

"I think I'll have to build up to that - eating 800 calories in one setting. I'm not used to eating food that isn't calorie-dense, so just a little would fill me up, or so I thought. So when I eat the same amount of food, but switch to…"

Shelah Mahan replied to Shelah Mahan's discussion Newbie here, what kitchen appliances are a must have?

"Yeah, I'm definitely not used to eating a lot of food, real food anyway. I could eat 1,000 calories of fried chicken and be fine, but 1,000 calories of fruit? That's different to get used to. I think Im so used to eating like that, that…"

Mary TG replied to Shelah Mahan's discussion Newbie here, what kitchen appliances are a must have?

"Before getting to this way of eating, most people (that have choices about diet) have never really felt true hunger because of the calorie-dense and crap-laden foods they eat that take so long to digest. A rumbly in your tummy is not…"

"juicing technically isnt part of the 80/10/10 diet because juice isnt a whole food but many people juice anyway:)"

Durianwriter replied to Shelah Mahan's discussion Newbie here, what kitchen appliances are a must have?

"You're understanding of hunger will change over time. For most of us before raw, we sense hunger in our stomachs. Post-raw, you will rarely have any sensation in your stomach when hungry, but more like a pleasant desire to put something in your…"

"Yeah I think I'm gonna get a blender first, maybe at some point get a juicer. A blender seems most important. I love making food fast too! I used to hate cooking- all the steps, all the recipes... But since becoming a raw vegan, I find it…"

"Yeah Im thinking of getting a spirilizer after I get a blender, I want to try raw "spaghetti" that I keep hearing about. I haven't heard of a grapefruit spoon, sounds helpful. When people talk about eating a lot of fruit, are you…"
