I was gaining weight instead of losing weight and I felt quite uncomfortable and lacking energy. I feel at my best on a diet with more variety in it and it's really obvious that what works for one, doesn't necessarily have to work for another person... And I also think Celestine is right- whenever Dragos and I were invited at some party, I would almost always receive a phone call from the party organizers asking me what to prepare for my husband :-D It can get annoying at times. Not to mention the emotional ups and downs and the mood shifting- but I think Dragos forgot to write about these ones here...:) .-= Noe´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.bebelissimo.com/how-to-have-a-fantastic-holiday-with-your-kids/" rel="nofollow">How To Have A Fantastic Holiday With Your Kids</a> =-.

I have followed a wide range of dietary approaches over the years and can appreciate the unique aspects of them all. Each person has a highly individualized response to any given eating pattern, and this can change dramatically as time passes. I think the increased awareness of ones own response, along with the feasibility of sticking to a certain regime, provide the best guideline. I doesn't matter how well it works for someone else, we need enough body and mind awareness to decide how well something works for us at any given time. You obviously have both. .-= Jonathan - Advanced Life Skills´s last blog ..<a href="http://advancedlifeskills.com/blog/when-lightning-strikes/" rel="nofollow">When Lightning Strikes</a> =-.

In my experience, the first 4-6 weeks are mainly detox related, so the main benefits are showing only after at least 6 weeks of raw food diet. But as you mentioned, it's pretty difficult to stay with it longer. Anyway, I think it’s great you kept it for 21 days.

My mom also had allergies and I know how it feels. Thanks for the nice words, Zuzanna, and I’m sorry about those allergies. My mom also had allergies and I know how it feels.

After my 21 day raw trial, I slowly went back to cooked food too. The biggest barrier is really the availability of food. As you had pointed out, in outings/social gatherings/parties it becomes an issue. I'm not particularly concerned about the questioning, but rather that I was burdening / troubling my friends as they have to specially look out for my needs. It's a pity because raw diet does have its benefits as you pointed out - weight loss, increased clarity, the feeling of purity of the body, etc. I'm planning to get back on it sometime in the future though (it's on my bucket list!) .-= Celes | The Personal Excellence Blog´s last blog ..<a href="http://personalexcellence.co/blog/2009/08/why-i-wake-up-early-and-9-reasons-you-should-do-so-too/" rel="nofollow">Why I Wake Up Early (And 9 Reasons You Should Do So Too)</a> =-.

I said almost, because of the allergies that forced to adjust my diet. With additives to food or non-organic vegetables it is hard to keep up with the dietary requirement...Only trying my best when buying food or eating out....Very good article and thought provoking too...Thank you!

Even when I don't use red pepper and I use it even on fruits, foods taste much better. I have heard for weight loss it is better to go either fruit or vegetables but not to mix. I don't know if I go along with that. Both are sources of fiber. Whether they work against each other I don't know. .-= BunnygotBlog´s last blog ..<a href="http://bunnygotblog.com/todays-woman/eleanor-roosevelt-2" rel="nofollow">Eleanor Roosevelt: Speaking Volumes, Part 2</a> =-.
