Welcome! I can't answer most of your questions but as a mom of five kids (14 and under) I can tell you what has worked for me (and what doesn't :). I became a vegetarian (again- had been one in high school) when pregnant with my second (now13) since…
Or you can always take them at night, right before bed. My stomache is empty and no fear of interactions until morning. (It took me a year to figure that one out after many busy mornings where I ended up skipping breakfast altogether since I had no…
I ate plenty of iodine laden table salt before I developed hypothyriodism (the culprit of the "weight gain" associated with iodine deficiency). We definitely can get our iodine from sea veggies and I think that table salt and the iodine in it make m…
I just did my fourth marathon (actually the Goofy marathon and a half at Disney World) and I found that maintaining my short and mid distance weekday training runs in addition to my long weekend runs really helped my fitness this time (I used to kin…
One more vote to cut out the soy. Good Luck Cindy and welcome to Vega!
eliminating wheat cleared up the acne I had had on my upper arms since childhood. I love the idea of sipping tea during an ice bath -I will totally try this!
Sprouting buckwheat is really easy and yummy but some people get turned off the first time they try it. I just wanted to note that it is normal for it to get kind of a gelatinous coating around as it is soaked. :)
I compost them. Its pretty easy since there's no meat and dairy to separate out of it :)-all the food waste just goes out on the compost pile.
I have often found my SAD sabatoging my diet. For me getting outside and adding extra workouts seems to be working this year. It can be very frustrating to feel down for no reason when you are a normaly upbeat person, I'm hoping to find a solution t…
I second the green smoothies and monster salad suggestions, its the only thing that worked for me.
My favorite vegan recipe is for 10 ingredient superfood truffles:10 Ingredient Superfood Truffles
Ingredients:
1 cup walnuts, raw
6 medjool dates, raw
½ cup raisins or currants
2 Tbsp agave nectare
1 tsp vanilla or 1 inch vanilla bean
Pinch sea salt…
I am in awe! You are amazing (I learned a bunch of stuff from your post that I'll apply to my age group struggles -thank you!) I might be gushing just a bit here but I'm really impressed :) Great job!
Thanks great summary! I wish I'd known about more about soy when I first became a vegetarian when I was a tennager, now I have hypothyroidism (I realise that it may not be directly caused by eating large amounts of soy for many years but my symptoms…
Barb's attitude and outlook are an inspiration!
from a woman's perspective: Ya, the first time I did weights, I wanted to cry. I even got angry. I had all these emotions raging through me. I've noticed a response like this every time I try a new athletic-related skill, but also I think I was rele…
Thanks for the advice guys! I think I will stick with it (maybe with a bit less weight to start) :).

Having fun With Raw Vegan Yumminess
I really wanted some chocolate this week and this was perfect. Chocolatey yumminess without any bad stuff. I actually made with mostly carob and just a little raw cocoa for the color. The recipe is Rasberry Ganache Fudge Cake from Ani's Raw Food Desserts and it's amazingly easy and pretty quick to make.… Continue

Are you raising your kids on mostly raw foods or are you just experimenting with it? I have been in transition for a few months now and have been eating mostly raw for a month! It's really great to know that you are doing great things for your health by eating this way!
