Our community would be delighted to know you better. Please tell us more about yourself and what brought you to the Frugivore Diet. Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member).
I've been vegetarian for 8+ years, vegan for 2, and have just started transitioning into 8/1/1. I've wanted to be 8/1/1 for a while now but got a little sidetracked by an eating disorder. Fully in recovery mode now, I'm excited to start living by thriving on fruit for fuel :)
I attend school in Seattle but am currently studying abroad in France. I don't know ANYONE living 8/1/1 so I'm really looking forward to getting to know some fellow fruitlovers.

Please tell us about your dietary inclinations:
Of course! My favorite fruit is definitely the peach <3
Are you Connected?
No & keen to connect!
My favourite books/movies/authors/pastimes are...
Everything and anything. I've been listening to a lot of Metric and City and Colour lately. I'm currently reading Le Petite Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry to practice up on my French!
The Frugivore started this site to bring together frugivores across the Globe! Let us know what high fruit assistance do you need?
I want to meet others who are more experienced with 8/1/1 since mostly everyone I know eats a SAD diet!

Irate produce clerk eh? well that was brave of you to do what you gotta do for your health. Were I there i'd have given the crusty-baguette-eating-woman a quick lesson in basic economics (sell more bananas = more PROFIT!) and explained to her that because of the bananas you are possibly the only woman in france with healthy digestion (you'd have to do the translating of course, je ne parle pas français, zut alors!).
That information will cost ya, lol. I'm excited man, I've been asked to do some talks on lfrv at the local wellness center soon. Also I'll be flapping my jaws here on 30bad in the not-so-distant future..
How goes the fruit situation in the land of the gauls? Stomach behaving yet?
Yeh, Lady Gaga =B)))
Just wanted to see how things are going...still planning to move back to Seattle? How is France this time of year where you are? Hope you're well
I talked with my friend who lives in the U district of Seattle and he said that he unfortunately doesn't know much about the housing in that area. He WILL look into though. I'm sure you've already considered this but Craigslist.com should have a substancial database of prospective places to live : ) I hope it all works out for you. Take care!
thank you for your nice comment.
I think you are on the right track with your organic Apples and three varieties.
I would always opt eat organic Apples if possible, and also have two, or more, different varieties, so you have a bit of variation. I had two varieties of Organic Apples on my first mono-diet, and this worked well for me because I really appreciated the difference between the two varieties.
Also make sure that you eat enough Apples to satisfy your needs, especially if this is your first mono diet.
The beauty of organic Apples is that it is much nicer to be able to eat chemical-free Apple skin, which contains much of the goodness.
Try to rest, if you need to. Not easy with a busy schedule, I know!
Apples seem gentler on the elimination, compared with other fruits, they are also, I feel, a nicely balanced fruit, and if organic are usually of good quality.
Also, I would advise brushing your teeth before you eat, rather than after, as brushing after can brush the Apple's acid into the enamel.
Enjoy your Apples ♥.
