Need help getting back to my raw lifestyle

Posted by DannieBananana on June 23, 2013 at 8:32am in Main Chat

So I have this new craving for rice, specifically sushi.  I make organic jasmine rice and wrap it up by itself in a nori (seaweed) wrap.  I eat like cups and cups of it everyday.  I was able to eat raw and felt amazing and my worries almost flew away, since eating not completely raw my worries seem to have come back.  I tried out some rice and can't stop eating it ever since.  I used to like salads, but I got lazy and don't like the flavor that much.  Is there any advice, or any way that i can get weened off the rice and go back to my raw lifestyle?  

30BaD note: Please remember folks that this is a raw food forum and this post is about asking how to get back on the raw wagon, not why it's okay to eat cooked.  Please keep your replies focused on HCRV solutions.  Thanks for your consideration! :)

    Chop up a bunch of zucchini, and mix it with the rice.  Start with about 1/2 and 1/2.  Then, gradually increase the amount of zucchini in proportion to the rice...until it's all zucchini :)

    just give in until you have a real desire to eat fruit instead

    Every time you feel like eating rice, eat a kilo of bananas instead.  Problem solved.

      Really? Lol. Does it work for you?

        Yeah it does, actually.  Cravings = not enough calories.  For me, and I suspect 99% or everyone else, whether they care to admit it or not, it's that simple.

          i usually eat about 2,700-3,400 cals a day, so i'm not quite sure that is the problem, but perhaps it is

            A.  How do i know im not eating enough calories from fruit?
            1. Cooked food starts to look and smell good.
            2. Cooked food looks more then the toxic, second rate slop it really is.
            3. Your energy, power, strength start to go downhill.
            4. Your attitude starts to suck. You just want to rip apart people and scream at them with frustration.
            5. You start to question this whole raw gig.
            6. You get cravings during the day and evening.
            7. You start to rely on discipline to keep you raw.
            8. You start to make raw pasta dishes, raw cakes etc.
            9. You start to question if we really need to exercise.
            10. Your so thin and weak that your athletic friends start to get concerned.
            11. You start to question veganism.
            12. You start blending maccadamias with dulse and spread it on 1inch thick flax crackers you made at 3am in the morning.
            13. You wake up at night and steal your housemates fruit. If your housemate is called banana guns and he told you not to eat the papaya, and you did, you aint eating enough fruit cals.
            14. You start to want to take fancy herbs and experiement with other diets.
            15. Your actually eating cooked food and reading this.
            16. Youve got some Fred Bisci Enzymes in your pocket and your ready to try the 'all raw but 20% cooked rule'
            17. You want to believe that Brian Clement is right when he says corn chips are better than fruit. 
            18. You just paid aajonus vonderplanitz 400$ for a one hour consult and he told you to put an egg on a window edge for 50 days until its putrid and then to eat it. and you did it. you saw your dog eat some animal poo and you tried it too. ( true story i just heard).
            19. You just cant sleep!! you are approaching insomniac.
