I AM IN DARWIN!!!
and jessie girl! the fruits are already soooo satisfying (been here 3 days!) i haven't even seen the main fruit market yet. Prices aren't too bad it seems. An the weather is gorgeous, although the build up to the rains is about to happen which everyone says is the hardest time. I can't wait to feel it though.
I will be out of range for a while as I am going to an aboriginal community for at least a month to do some permaculture, but I look forward to talking to you asap :) love you lots.

hello jessica, what would you like to know :) ?
Hey! How are you??
jessie I MISS YOU!
i just read some of your posts and got a little bit of a catch up from them. But it is nothing compared to a skype. ha ha, we are so bad at this!
i think about you a lot and send prayers and thoughts of love. we will talk soon i know it. we have so much going on in our worlds it is amazing. Love you so much. You are beautiful. MWAH
Hey Jessica, thanks again for your very quick, thoughtful and sensible advice. You're so helpful! I'm so glad to hear that your brother shares this diet with you, it must feel very special to share this diet with a loved one.
Tbh, when I first heard that I will get more sensitive the more I go LFRV, I was a bit disappointed. But after second thoughts, I realize that this is a chance for my personal growth. I'm a person that likes to agree, conform with what people around me do and feel very embarrassed if I stand out in any odd way and this has brought me a lot of anxiety in the past. Eating LFRV I guess in a way will force me to cast away those unnecessary fears of how people judge me. I've read about people saying how liberating it feels to really live life without caring how people look at you. I long to have that freedom!!!!
For Matt Monarch's book you mentioned, any specific title? Does the 811 book by Dr. Graham mention about going back to cooked food? I still haven't gotten to reading this book yet...been too busy with my useless business degree. I'll def read it during the summer.
Oh, and it is really tough to sort of explain this diet to close friends let alone acquaintances at parties and stuff? I'm fortunate to have a family that supports me in my various diet experiments though and I'm really grateful. How do you deal with this? I'm thinking when I heal myself longer with LFRV, I can just go to parties occasionally and eat cooked vegan food or whatever is healthiest so I don't need to make a big fuss out of this.
Hey thanks for the reply. Yes, unfortunately I'm pretty much alone in doing all this haha. I haven't actually looked for members here that are in HK but I'm pretty sure most members here are from the states. I am on my 6th day of 100% LFRV and although I've suffered from a few detox symptoms - certain rashes appeared under my nose, the dry patches on my arms and under my knees are nearly gone! So far, I'm not touching any fats at all and plan to add some nuts back in after around a month.
I'm just wondering whether I'll be able to go on vacation for 1-2 weeks after cleansing a while (1 year) on this diet and not have eczema symptoms come back so quickly? I guess this depends how strong my body can get.
What's amazing is though is I've overcame peanut, and chocolate allergy through my raw journey, I used to be so allergic to chocolate that my tongue would itch horribly if even a bit of chocolate was eaten.
Haha, same as you, I want to find my soulmate as well, unfortunately, with this lifestyle of LFRV, it's going to be pretty hard lol.
