baba yaga replied to Marii U.'s discussion Feeling so down and depressed
"I am also wondering if you might be fighting some other infection unrelated to starting HCRV.  Or maybe it's a food allergy or even a mild bout of food poisoning (just guesses, I am by no means a doctor).  In my non-expert opinion,…"

baba yaga replied to Noel's discussion 811 to recover from emotional eating and excess weight
"Welcome! I've done a lot of "emotional eating" in the past, too.  811, especially HCRV 811, works better to control food addiction than anything else I've tried. I've just recently come back to it after sliding back…"

baba yaga replied to micha's discussion Risk: Loosing teeth with HCRV
"I don't think  1 1/2 months on HCRV is a long enough time to blame it for losing teeth.  I don't think a cavity can develop that quickly.  I would instead look toward improving your dental hygiene.  Go to the dentist…"

baba yaga replied to cecilie malene's discussion Should I just go to the dentist?
"I agree, go to the dentist! I respect your efforts to be as natural as possible, but we also ought to address the realities of our times and our environment.  You're still doing a world of good for yourself by eating well, even if you go…"

Profile Information

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.
Artist/musician/jewelry designer living in New York City. Been vegan for a while, but have always struggled with proper nutrition, even when I know what I ought to be eating. I tried HCRV (and was a member of this site) a couple years ago, to wonderful effect. Somewhere along the line I slipped back into old habits, and in case anyone needs reminding: Standard American Diet= SAD : (

This time around, I am more motivated than ever to stick to this. Nothing tastes better and more nourishing than fresh fruits and veggies.
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.
female
Please tell us about your dietary inclinations:
I really want to be HCRV 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!!
Are you Connected?
yes i am
My favourite books/movies/authors/pastimes are....
Books: anything F. Scott Fitzgerald; Madame Bovary; The Portrait of Dorian Gray; books on Eastern philosophy.

Movies: classics, foreign, arthouse, experimental.

Pastimes: making art, seeing art, making jewelry, seeing jewelry, playing and listening to music, studying and practicing Buddhism and meditation, and my projects for the summer: learning to drive, becoming fluent in French, and getting better at Photoshop and Illustrator.
Please list your website/blog/facebook/myspace etc

Durianrider & Freelee started this site to bring together high carb, raw vegan lifestylists' across the Globe! 30bad is a high standard and high performance team! We're here to help you make our team! Let us know what HCRV assistance do you need?
It is just nice to be part of a community, and to get positive reinforcement. I am here to connect with others who are enjoying this lifestyle, not to debate with those who want to shoot it down.

I would also love to find a cyber-buddy who I can "check in with" on a daily basis for at least the first month or so of the lifestyle, just to keep me on the straight and narrow until my old bad habits loosen their grip on me a little.
30bad is a HCRV (high carb, raw vegan) internet community which promotes a high carb raw lifestyle free of any animal products. Our forum does not tolerate encouragement of anything contrary to HCRV. Nor do we allow endorsement of non-vegan items or practises which involve the imprisonment, exploitation, abuse or murder of sentient beings. We also require our members to post with proper netiquette. Therefore, please indicate your intention:
I will comply because I like totally agree with all this
