[fliight]

[mikepattonisgawd]

Hey Bunny...are those regular dolls behind you, or Day of the Dead dolls? just curious.

[otnt66]

Your words are both enlightening and encouraging. Thankyou, and may God richly bless you. Gen. 1:29

eating meat is a good thing. animals contains important proteins and vitamins, stop eating meat will not make you slimmer. rather try balanced diet and exercise. tend to help the general public, and do not come here and say that I do not know what I'm talking about. my mother was fat, but with proper diet and exercise she took of 15 kg.

[RawFoodPower]

Eating meat is an ethical choice. I'm so happy for your mom, that's great!

[setingful]

i hate diet

[springloadedchicken]

all these folks going raw for weight loss.. i recall a time that raw wasn't about weight loss....

(heh, thanks oprah... and she really was never a vegan even for a short period of time.)

vegan of 37 years... here, i remember when it was of the soul.

[Jackthemeat]

I was going to go on a raw food diet till I saw this video. you are still a fatty : (

[RawFoodPower]

I wasn't skinny when I started the raw food diet. That's why I started it, actually. I've lost around 40 pounds so far, and am still losing. Some people take longer than others to lose weight. That's just life. I can accept it. I'm not looking for a quick fix. I'm looking to lose the weight and never find it again.

Don't let me being a "fatty" discourage you from eating more raw fruits and vegetables. You will lose weight. Maybe even rapidly.

Go for it! Do it!

[moonboy87]

Good job at not letting that asshole get to you! You look great, you have a great personality and you have successfully done something important in your life :D Keep with it :D

[afringedweller]

You're right. Bunny's a fabulous and classy girl. Jackthemeathead's a troll. Oh well, too bad, so sad, but what can ya do, eh?

[Mandy86lynn]

get back up on that pony lady lol :P

[Mandy86lynn]

lol you got a lot of dolls lady!!!

[DarlingKaya]

HAHA girl your so funny!

[teresaveg]

You get the sinus infection or other symptoms when you are cleansing because your body is getting rid of its junk. Living in Iowa is like living down south is the same with cooking. It is hard to keep raw because of our womanly cooking instincts we were raised with.... but I am doing it with ya! Hive five!

[meow98]

Bunny, isn't there an in-between stage of raw fooding, versus standard, and all at once. I got kinda shaky one day, and also I had zuccini for pasta, and raw tomato sauce with herbs, and had to throw it out, could not stand it! it always looked delicious when everyone else was eating it!

[BlacklitFloater]

this totally happens, and it's a pain in the butt when you're on the fence for such a long time, (my situation) there comes a point when you just want to get over it. Like when I was eating a bagel the other day, and I used to love them and wolfe them down, and I realized that it was so tough to chew compared to the tender greens and stuff I'd been eating. Stuff happens when you go on this!

[iryna]

love your videos. You are so much fun!!!

[maeveniacal]

I TOTALLY agree!!! That's how I got through the first month of being a vegan...I told myself every morning that today I was going to commit to being a vegan, and that yesterday and tomorrow didn't matter, and it made the transition SO MUCH easier! And it's exactly what I plan to do when I transition into raw (although I am starting out with a raw until dinner thing...).

[rawfoodkarma]

When I do eat a muffin or something, usually just feeling the side effect of it is enough to get back on track. You are so right. It's never ruined or too late even if you have something you think is unacceptable.

The next meal or snack can be your normal healthy-ness which will push that gunk right out anyhow....LOL!

Love ya girl!

[rawfoodkarma]

You look so great!!

[thrivesurvive]

This one went into my favorites. You hit the nail right on the head. The all-or-nothing attitude of perfectionism is not practical. It's just an excuse to fail and go back to what's easier.

Your hair looks really cute like that.

[rawkinrawmama]

Those raw cucumber wraps were great. I have made them for me and my husband. I have had them twice now. LOVE THEM. Thank you!

[brokedowrage]

Just subscribed! Love the videos and you!

[starflower666]

raw icecream...yum!

[eamonchamp]

great vid! thanks for sharing!

[lberry226417]

great video as always . thanks for sharing . i do not believe that there is a perfect raw fooder anywhere in the wrold . however there are some who are verry verry good at the craft and that is what makes them great . i think the best raw fooies are the ones who strive every day to stay raw . they practice every day like an athleat . practice makes prefect , or as close in this lifetime as we will ever get :)

[yardsnacker]

Another ball outta the park video. Thanks bb. The best advice I ever had about this lifestyle is to look at the whole thing, the entire thing as "increasing the good, so there's no room for the bad." Woah. That way I was able to get past the "cutting this and that" out mentality that always has us going back for whatever. Have a great weekend!

[RawFoodPower]

Wow, Sam. That is really great advice. Thank you for sharing it!

[jsorensens2]

Same thing happened to me. I went from 100% SAD to 100% RAW in a 10 day period and boy oh boy did I ever detox! Bacteria was comin' out of everything! Then I went high raw (90% I guess) through the rest of the detox and 21 days later it was over. Now I'm high raw, about 75% (but currently on a 30 day 100% challenge with my daughter) and it's all good! You know what I LOVE about eating raw? You don't feel PUSHED to do it, you feel DRAWN to do it because you feel so GOOD!! Love to all!

[RawFoodPower]

I totally agree. Now I do it because it makes me feel great. In the beginning? You know I was a total white knuckle raw foodist. And I still have a really hard time in the middle of the night. I wake up and immediately go back to my old habit of going straight to the fridge. I better have some watermelon or something cut up in there, or I'll go right for the ice cream in the freezer. Have you ever noticed how the freezer is always located dangerously close to the fridge??

[jsorensens2]

Decades-old habits/patterns can't be broken overnight! Mine sure can't. I admire you, as I'm sure all of your fans do, that you were brave enough to not only post your challenge on Day 1, but continue posting and reporting through thick and thin! YOU represent ALL OF US, and watching you and listening to you is a comfort and inspiration to everyone. Thanks Bunny! You look and are fabulous!

[rawkinrawmama]

Oh you're naughty. Oh how you tell the truth. You and me....the same baby....the same.

[finch6789]

I'm no expert, but I've done a few fasts and cleanses myself. If you're on one for over a few days your body starts releasing toxins and bacteria from your fat cells, so it might be possible that O got an infection from the cleanse. Just a thought. I used to get bad headaches and dragon breath, aches and stuff before I started to feel good.

[RawFoodPower]

Ew, I never really thought about it like that? Bacteria coming out of my fat cells?  I'm shocked that I didn't drop dead during the first week, considering how much fat I have on my chins alone.
