Just Getting Started

Why Do You Want to Join Raw Fu?

Need to eat a bit better and I am very attracted to the idea of eating raw. I could use some encouragement and this seems to be a good community. I also have a recurrent benign brain tumor so it seems that situation might be alleviated some by lowering inflamation etc. Beginning radiation therapy this month too so I will need all the nutritional help I can get.

It is the most wonderful time of the year (at my CSA)

Yesterday I picked up Red Russian kale, Tat Soi, Baby Bok Choy, Beets with their greens, roasted green pepper still warm from the roaster, and Acorn Squash, and a Pomegranate. It is so much esier to eat raw with plentiful greens.

End of radiation therapy

I am finally done with the thirty treatments over a month's time. I came through it pretty well it appears with only the loss of my hair and a tiny bit of wobbliness. I am going to attribute this to my healthy eating habits!

Halfway through radiation therapy

I am halfway through stereotactic radiation therapy to control my brain tumor growth. I have lost all the hair on the top of my head but that is the only side effect. No nausea or fatigue yet. I am trying to eat well with lots of vegetables and am keeping up with my workout schedule. I have also added more supplements like a mushroom complex, vitamin D and calcium, and KyoGreen every morning. I think I might have more energy than before I began treatment since I am looking after myself.

I use my dehydrator for certain things, like recently for drying pumpkin seeds.. but honestly I don't make that many dehydrated breads, crackers, or things like I used to. I've been raw for 3 years though, so maybe it's because of my own journey and transition.

I do think you would benefit a lot from a dehydrator, as long as see yourself making lots of things. :)

At 12:13pm on March 2, 2009, Terry said…: Yeah, that's the most important thing...taking care of yourself. Although sometimes, when we're in tip-top shape stuff affects us more strangely :-)

At 12:09pm on March 2, 2009, Terry said…: I wonder if there's anything you can do/eat/take that would help with how the meds make you feel? Is that something you always have to on?

At 12:01pm on March 2, 2009, Terry said…: oh, man. Please let us know how it's going. Check in from time to time :-)

At 12:34am on March 1, 2009, Terry said…: Yes, I sometimes fall into the trap of not checking in as it seems I have stuff going on everywhere. But do make sure you keep on top of healthier eating habits, even if you do forget to check in :-) Have you gotten radiation therapy in the past?

At 1:37pm on January 12, 2009, Rgibbe2 said…: Hi Jonathan - I've been getting overloaded with turnips from my CSA too. I've been turning them into noodles with my spiralizer. It's tasty mixed with a second veggie noodle under a nice creamy sauce.

At 12:09am on January 10, 2009, Bri said…: lol yeah. when i was little my dad and i would go there on sundays on our bikes after yard sale-ing all day and i would get a lemon poppyseed muffin. i remember it so well...and it's a comforting place to study. :)
