Steve and sexy girls

[Kazeko]

There are so many sexy "raw-food" girls in his "Following" section of Steve's Twitter profile! I'm in love Thank you, Steve! Now I can re-channel the energy, that I wasted on adult sites. Don't get me wrong - I'm talking about my mental energy, my thoughts and dreams. At last I have a very stimulating reason to become a part of raw-foodist community. Girls - I'm on my way!

Greetings go to Britanie Faith (You're the best! Will you marry me? ), Sarma Melngailis (Nice drink and "Metallica" shirt! And I'm sinking in your eyes...), and Karen Knowler (You're so cute! And your blog will be the first I'm going to read.)

I wonder if any of these girls actually read my post

[pianoperformer]

Kind of creepy....

[Kazeko]

Someone just needs to take things easier Don't worry, "I'm on my way" only to become a part of a raw-food community. Nothing more than that. I admired the breathtaking beauty of these girls so much, that my energy totally rechanelled to my heart chakra. So again, my greetings and respect to all the raw foodists!

I still wonder if it's "just a coincidence", that there are so many hot and beautiful girls in the "Following" section of Steve's Twitter profile

[Steve Pavlina]

Most of these people, including the three you mentioned, come from the raw food site Give it to me Raw. You might see me as one of the featured members on their home page. It's a social networking site for raw foodists where I've been making a lot of new friends. My profile page can be found here:

Karen Knowler, for instance, is a raw food coach from the UK. I've been receiving her e-newsletter for months. I'm looking forward to meeting her at the Raw Spirit Festival next month. I had a brief exchange with her last week.

I also noticed that the raw food community seems to be filled with a lot of attractive people, both male and female. The raw food diet is perhaps the world's best beauty secret -- good for weight control, radiant skin, and vibrant energy. Despite having dry skin problems during my January trial, today my skin is looking so much healthier on this diet.

Check out Angela Stokes' before and after photos for a good example of the physical transformation -- not just weight loss but also a shift in one's radiance:

Raw foodists tend to have a strong commitment to personal growth, so I find that I have a lot in common with people in that community.

[Angela]

Wow! She does look radiant! That's the biggest inspiration I've ever seen to go raw. (the cute long-haired guy, too!)

Speaking of sexy girls, has Erin expressed an interest in going raw yet? I don't think she could get any more radiant, though.

Angela Stokes brings a big smile to my face

[Fullcrum]

Haha this thread is awesome.

Loving the girls having that "take me I want you" look on their blog pics while drinking green smoothies and eating raw spaghetti. Hahahaha!

----------------------------

I'm telling my mom that raw foods is the world's best beauty secret. She believes me and it's already starting to show. It's really strange - she's 49 and her face is that of a 35-40 year old, and I'm sure with more time she'll look even younger.

BTW she's not really "raw" but she drinks one quart of green smoothie a day and it's been about one month on consistent 1 quart a day.

This thread is great, heh.

I honestly didn't know what to expect when I saw the thread title. It didn't let me down. (In terms of it being amusing. Sorry, ladies. )

Kazeko is just admiring beauty. Nothing wrong with that--that's the beauty of authenticity. The fact we tend to shy away from that in the first place seems more unnatural to me, but I'm too engulfed in positivity to care.

Phew... After pianoperformer's post I was afraid that other people would get me wrong too Yes, I'm a very "direct" person, and I express my feelings much more openly, than 3-5 years ago (and I thank Steve for showing me the importance of courage). Besides, my archetype is the Beast, as Angela says, and I feel it is absolutely true from the inside. I certainly have a "Mark of the Wild", I love Nature and if I see a beautiful or hot or cute girl, I usually tell her directly something like "OMG, you're great!" (not only in the virtual worlds, in real life too). Yes, sometimes I have to watch myself (preventing me from staring too much for example), but I consider myself a very respectful and kind person. I've never engageg any harassment, in any form.

And don't forget that my native language is Russian. I'm still learning, and next time, I'll use the word "attractive" instead of "sexy" to make our sensitive members happy. And my advice to those members is to visit Turkey. There you'll understand how gentle I was

Steve, as always - excellent growth-oriented reply! Thank you very much! Now I have the place to start from (I mean "Give it to me raw" site). All I need now to start my "raw-food" journey is to summon some courage and prepare my mind (I tried to start boldly multiple times, but in vain).

Actually this a great thread. I never had looked into raw, until tonight - ha ha! I'm quite interested in it now. I like the idea behind it and I am definitely going to read more about it. I like the idea of going back to the basics and boy there certainly are some lovely looking people on raw food diets. I like the idea of the energy, the clear skin and also that "enlightened feeling, sounds great.

And for the ladies who visit this thread, who want to go googly eyed check this guy out We Like It Raw - Raw Food Goodness: Interview with Anthony, the Raw Model

Thanks to that website, ellie, I now know where I want to go for my birthday.

I love New York City. It's got everything you need. Except sustainability.

[Lenie]

This is hilarious.
Thanks for making my day.

...Is there a recipe thread on here yet?

Because I have an incredibly simple yet taste-alike raw version of pecan pie.


You take 4 dates.
split them in half.
Add a pecan to each.

Yum.

Unfortunately, here in the US, raw pecans are hard to find. I believe, even if they are labeled 'raw', they have still been pasteurized.

LOL I can't prevent myself from practicing some "funny English".

The recipe of perfect date: Buy your date 4 dates! She/he will especially appreciate it, if she/he is from raw-food community

And looking through my dictionary, I've found a very funny sentence: "In pairs we crowded into cars, our dates in our laps." Just don't forget your pecans, guys

The same here in Russia. You buy a pack of almonds, its label says "dried", but they actually taste like a bit roasted If you expose nuts to a 300 degrees C temperature (3 times boiling water, too lazy to translate to F degrees), I guess they become "dry enough"

[Akashic_Librarian]

speciality raw products (like nuts etc...) are almost impossible to find in the main stream UK you have to realy look for those damned health food shops and when you do find them, they want about £4 for a bag of the stuff, although I must say Karen Knowler is an inspiration and I think its her website, or is it The Fresh network? well one or the other ofers good value raw food wholesale and relatively cheap.
