Discover 7 Easy Tricks to Staying Raw
1. Plan ahead: have an overabundance of fruit at your house. Make it look beautiful. Have fruits and vegetables of many different colors spread all throughout your kitchen.
Bring extra food with you when you travel or go out to eat. Never assume you'll be able to get what you want when you are away from your normal food shopping places. Be a Boy scout and be prepared.
2. Eat plenty of food: Many new raw foodists fail because they eat 1/2 to 1/3 less calories than when they ate cooked food. With low fat raw foods, you have to learn to expand your stomach or eat many small meals to get the same calories you did while eating cooked food.
3. Tasty Recipes: Learn to make recipes you really enjoy.
www.HowToGoRaw.com will show you simple and yet delicious raw food preparation techniques. In many cases you can make delicious meals in 5 to 15 minutes.
4. Get excited: about the benefits of eating raw. Never focus on what you are missing out on. Imagine how healthy you'll be, how much happier this diet is making you feel, how much more spiritually in tune you are, feel the extra energy, and see yourself at your ideal weight because of eating this way.
Get excited about the new person you will become and how this makes you a more powerful person, because you've managed to conquer an addiction.
Daily reread a list of positive benefits to going raw. Here's my list of over 40 of them.

Going raw really does make you more personally powerful. Many people wouldn't even dream of going raw because they feel it's so difficult. So congratulate yourself.
Of course, with the right information and support it can be quite easy to go raw. But it is a life-changing accomplishment, nonetheless.
5. Gourmet Taste Buds: Develop gourmet taste buds. The less you use spices and complicated raw recipes the less you will crave cooked food. It's difficult at first but eventually you adapt and you won't be looking for so much stimulation.
Try eating only fruit for a day. Then expand it to two days on another occasion. This will gradually help you forget about having to make complicated recipes with all sorts of spices and less than healthful ingredients like salt.
6. Eat a 100% raw food diet. When your only option is to eat raw, you stop thinking about and craving cooked food. What you think about is so important to whether or not you will be successful at a raw diet. All things originate in thought.
7. When you start craving cooked food there is a very simple solution. You can still eat food, just eat more raw food. It may not be the exact flavor or texture that you want at that time, but it will get you over the craving. Once you are full, you are much less likely to want to eat cooked food. The cravings pass with time.
8. Bonus Trick: Hire yourself a Raw Food Chef. Find one that will prepare tasty meals but be willing to make the food according to your specifications. If you don't want Nama Shoyu or oils added to your recipes, a good chef will find ways to accommodate you. When you have great tasting food always available, then going raw is easy.
It's mostly about taste. We are addicted to the tastes, textures and memories of cooked foods. You can easily replace those memories with great raw food memories. I now associate many good times in my life with eating raw foods.
For a raw food catering or personal chef work in the NYC area, I highly recommend you contact Loren Bruni at loren@lorensrawfood.com. She's a chef at the top raw food restaurant in the city.
Even the people who work there love her raw dishes. What she prepares for them is different from what they serve at the restaurant. She can make you anything from the restaurant or her own creations.
9. One final trick. Once you are 100% raw for a month or two, it doesn't take much willpower to stay raw. As long as you get enough variety and are doing the raw diet correctly. It just becomes a habit like anything else.
*** Little or No Willpower is Necessary ***
I don't ask myself anymore if I should go to my favorite Thai food restaurant. But when I was still eating cooked foods, I always had the cooked food restaurant option.
Note: This kept me THINKING about and associating good memories to cooked food. Once the memories are gone from your consciousness and you have delicious raw foods available, there isn't much of a reason to go back to eating cooked matter.
By the way, now I can go to a cooked restaurant and just chose what is available raw. I don't do it often, but mostly for social occasions. You are not limited socially at all. But at first when going raw it is easier for you to stay away from cooked food until you are more secure in your new radiant health lifestyle.
