Hi Viviana!

The good news is that it's perfectly ok to eat whatever level of raw works for YOU and only YOU know that. Can I ask why you went back to cooked food? When you went raw, did you do it gradually, or did you go raw "cold turkey". What were your eating habits prior to going raw? And why did you choose raw? All of these things are important if you want to get opinions from people about what has worked for them....

There are studies that show that eating at least 50% raw at every meal has huge health benefits, so if I eat cooked food, I eat it with raw food.

I am about 70-80% raw most of the time. Today was mangoes, dates, raw hummus and veges, raw cookies, a raw shake of strawberries, raw power protein mix, and coconut water. Oh, and an avocado. I also had a shake of "super foods" which was pretty high in protein. Tonight I am having a glass of wine, but I wasn't hungry for dinner, so I might just have some berries or something with it. So today was a pretty high raw day.... oh, and i had a few rice crackers with the hummus and veges earlier.

Tomorrow might be good again, or it might be less raw and more cooked..... it's one day at a time in my life, it's how i work best

Glad you found us, and I hope you look around and make yourself at home!
