I also wanted to add that you are such a delight to watch ur energy is so positive and motivating i sat up all night watching your blogs because they were inspiring me so much. I have wanted to go raw for a while now but always made excuses not to and now after watching ur vids i finally have enough motivation to stick to it. Thanks for being so full of light and sharing ur journey :)

A good trick to drinking more water is to add chlorophyll or mint leaves to it. i myself LOVE water but still sometimes it is difficult to drink the quota for the day so adding something to it always does the trick. Not many ppl think to put chlorophyll in to their water but it really has great benefits to the body such as deodorizing the body (including the bowel) as well as promoting the natural blood cleansing functions in the body ... those are just 2 but there are many more benefits. :)

I've been following 80 10 10 as well and my skin is definately clearer. The dark circles that were under my eyes are better as well.

Hi Therese,

Love your posts. You are so passionate. And I appreciate the spiritual aspects of your musings.I have been transitioning to raw food diet for a year with mixed success.

But I have been following a 80 10 10 just like you for about 8 days now and what a difference. I feel TERRIFIC! I have given up my daily coffee with very little side effects.

I will follow your progress as it parallels mine. You look great.

Keep up the good work and the inspiration to all of us. You go girl!

[RawDownUnder]

Thank you :) Maybe watch how you feel tho, I'm definitely including greens into my smoothies everyday. I've just increased the amount of fruit and gotten rid of all other types of food! Go for it :-)

I just wanted to say you look absolutely fabulous!!! I've been raw since August 29th 2008 now and have been eating a lot of fruit but also i keep eating high fat raw gourmet in the evenings but after seeing your video I am starting on fruit for at least 30 days then going to add in greens. You are inspiring.

Thank you, and stay fruity.

[Trev4raw]

Powerful.

all i can say = :)! rrrrich gurl.

[Seedcovers]

Your skin is so beautiful. All fruit did that?

[RawDownUnder]

I believe so. As Matt Monarch says, it's not what's in your diet, but you consistently keep out of your diet that makes a difference. I wasn't eating anything except fruit and greens this week...

[Anathoniel]

Looks to me like makeup

[Seedcovers]

I do not think so, that is mean :-(

[Anathoniel]

What's mean about it?

[Seedcovers]

You give people the benefit of the doubt, once they have proven to be a liar, then you take it from there, that is fair?

BTW went I went 100% raw, my face had a totally different texture and shine to it. The fruit thing is possible.

[Anathoniel]

What the heck are you talking about? What benefit of doubt? Where does the lady say she's not wearing makeup? Where did I say that a raw diet doesn't improve the texture of the skin? Just saying what appears to me the truth doesn't make it true (I could be wrong) nor does it make it wrong. A fact is a fact, not a personal judgement.

[Seedcovers]

Thank you :-)

So you've never just eaten mostly fruit for 3+ days? Welcome to the club, it's awesome. Now you can see why a few of us recommended more fruit. Your in high spirits.

I once pulled out a head of lettuce in the car. My friends thought it was cool.

I now purposely eat basic "raw" foods in public. We're role models.

[RawDownUnder]

I had no idea it could feel so good! Bring it!! Mango season is upon me. Yay...

[ChaserHUN]

80/10/10 diet rules! This is what raw food diets should be about!

[Insanityperfectd]

Make sure doll you are getting the adequate amount of greens...and it is ALOT of greens on the 80/10/10.

[flyingjuli]

cont.

...only he thinks that the amount of greens should be higher and the fruits lower because of all the sugar. Lots of wise people out there so i try to combine their teaching in a way that works for me... I am very interested in his books ,have a big collection but nothing from him yet, he was great at the "rawkathon " event. you can watch his interview here at youtube. Greetings!

[flyingjuli]

Super fun!

I've been looking on this 80 10 10 thing lately, and have been trying it too, it sure makes a lot of sence, however, i've seen some comments by David Wolfe on it ( on the video called "activating the superhero"), he says that we need more minerals and it ( the diet) doesnt work very good. Also in his blog the "raw model" says he likes this diet a lot,

[jumpup]

I do adore watching your vids. Thanks for the regular posts.

[Trev4raw]

agree

[easterb22]

great video! one of your best. what i'm trying to balance is seasonality. i've read the "3 seasons diet" by john douillard, which takes an ayurvedic approach to eating. i'm trying to make it work for raw foods. he says foods should lighten and heavy up depending on seasonal cycles. i think trying 80-10-10 is easier for you now that it's summer time down under. i wonder how it would be if you started in winter with snow? anyway, wonderful video, you're looking smashing...run fast!

[RawDownUnder]

I'd probably turn into a human popsicle! :)

[ShaolinHero1]

Whatever you think you can't do move towards it..good advice, thanks for the vid!
