[@Rose2gard]

My face cleared up after listening to you 9 years ago! Thank you

[@RawFoodRomance]

Awwwwww love that so much!!!! Thank you for sticking around that long and making changes yourself ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Miumiubambi]

Sometimes I just daydream of being in your kitchen and eat all the amazing food you and nate prepare 😭😭

[@RawFoodRomance]

Awwwwww!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@rawlikesasha8960]

I do this every day too! I would love to come over and sample lots of different things and then take the recipes for the ones I love the most, but yes I dream of living next door to Lissa 😂😂😂

Thank you Lissa! I would love to do a two-day retreat with you and prep food, eat and hike all day!

[@RawFoodRomance]

Oooooo one day we want to have a full on retreat here in Vegas! Maybe next year?!

[@JackieBenjamin-n3t]

@@RawFoodRomancePlease do. I would definitely attend (except August where I have to go to a wedding in England).

[@rawlikesasha8960]

Thank you so much Melissa. I am one of your fans who has been there from the beginning when you were about 6 months in. I am very high raw but still have the odd occasional vegan cooked food item. I never feel great after it and am looking to take this last step. This video is just what I need to hear, I’m going to take that final leap of faith and will play this every day to keep me focused on what I really want. Thank you so much for all you do, you are amazing ❤❤❤

[@RawFoodRomance]

Thank you so much for being with me for so long! You are so appreciated. Keep working at it! Each day is an opportunity to make those choices ❤️❤️❤️ hugs!!! 🥰

[@millermusicstudioofsimpson6085]

Inspiring! Thanks. I am hoping that you and Nate will commence a project (I know this is huge!). It would be so helpful to have all your recipes in a searchable data base. I would love to be able to look in my fridge to see what is available and then search for recipes that use those ingredients. Even an index in each book would help! Think about it!

[@RawFoodRomance]

Oh my!!! I don’t even know how we could do something like that, but it’s a grand idea ❤️❤️❤️

[@RT-wy4st]

I put all her recipes in a google spreadsheet so I could easily use what I get from my csa

[@lcwathome821]

That would be amazing! But not techy enough!

[@0000asdfasdf0000]

Congrats 9 yrs wow I hope to be able to say that someday. Thank you this video was super helpful. I am vegan but now trying to go 100% raw. Has been 5 months and am 60 - 80% raw.

[@RawFoodRomance]

60-80 is AWESOME!!!! Well done!!! Keep it up, adding more raw is so wonderful 😍🥰😍

[@katievdbshsh757]

Good morning from Switzerland, Lissa and raw food lovers ❤

[@RonPaulgirls]

I'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR DECADES AND SHE MAKES TOTAL SENSE, THERE ARE A LOT OF PHONIES ON KZbin, I GOT TIRED OF WATCHING THEM, I JUST STUMBLED ACROSS THIS VIDEO AND IT'S A VERY EFFECTIVE VIDEO

[@RawFoodRomance]

Nice to see you from Switzerland!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@RawFoodRomance]

Thank you I’m glad you resonated with my thoughts 🥰

[@Spiritual_Warrior_Princess]

Hi Lisa, it's really great to see you keep going with raw food lifestyle! I was buying your recipes around 7 years ago and since then fell off the wagon, tried other diets, and was just getting more and more confused with so much contradictory information (from 'raw vegan' to 'carnivore'). You mentioned your 'blood test' is in top form which is awesome. My concern is getting 'low iron' as it seems happening in some females when they go 'vegan' (and mine gone really low then too) and I have pancreatitis as well, but you explained that we need to check our health from time to time and get supplements if need be (and that's on any diet really!). I really want to give it a go again. Thank you so much for all these amazing videos that you've been doing over so many years!! You are truly inspirational! :)

[@RawFoodRomance]

Aww thank you so much for sharing all of that! It’s definitely something to keep in mind because no diet is perfect, especially in this modern time when food isn’t quite what it used to be nutritionally. Supplements aren’t evil or something to fear, especially if one needs to supplement to get back to health, then if it can be managed with food after treatment, even better! That said, I easily get my iron targets daily - sunflower microgreens are a huge help as you only need 1 cup chopped for 6mg and it’s not heme iron so it can’t get absorbed too much. I also eat a lot more greens and veggies than the typical raw foodie. On the other topic, I feel if a person (influencer) needs to get their opinion across using absolute statements like “all” “everyone” and “never”, or fear like “xyz is trying to kill your” or health guarantees like “never get sick again!” And “heal ALL diseases doing this!”, then it’s a huge red flag. I always go back to the science and what makes the most logical sense. It can be very convincing when you have a charismatic person pumping an idea with fear and confidence. I like balance and consistency - not extremes or get healthy quick schemes. I’m glad you wanna come back to more raw! It’s such a lovely way to eat 🩷🩷🩷

[@vanityshop5155]

Hi Lissa, The hand salads that you make look so delicious, but I'm not ready to invest in a dehydrater, as I've never tried the wraps before. Do you have any store/online-bought wrap recommendations? Or wrap recipes for the oven, using the silicone mat? Also, I watched one of your other videos and you mentioned how you lost all of the weight on the raw vegan diet without excercise. So my question is whether you had a job that had you walking/on your feet alot and you just didn't workout, or if you were mostly sedentary, day to day? Thanks! Love your recipes!

[@RawFoodRomance]

Hi there! Sadly these wraps are only made in the dehydrator. The oven is too hot and no airflow it makes crackers instead. And there is nothing at all on the market even close to our wraps. That’s why we made them, cuz nothing like them exist. You can usually find used dehydrators for cheap, I’ve heard many stories of people finding them for $100 all the way to as low as $19!!! As for the exercise I did some but not a lot I’d say I was sedentary. My job was freelance photography AND website/digital design so I spent most of my day at the computer. I’d go for random walks and sometimes I’d do daily squats but it wasn’t regular at all.

[@Darkempress45]

I have recently made the decision to go vegan. I am not too picky right now because if I restrict cold Turkey, there is a chance that I will fall off and go back to my regular diet. So far, I’ve chosen to be a Whole Foods plant based vegan because eating things like the impossible burger for instance, makes me bloated and upsets my stomach. I’ve always enjoyed veggies and fruit but being raw is a new concept that I’m interested in. All of your food looks absolutely delicious. New subbie!

[@RawFoodRomance]

Yay!!!! Well done!!!!!! I’m rooting for you and welcome to my channel I hope it continues to inspire!

[@palettetools6461]

Good job.

[@vanityshop5155]

Sorry to bother you with another question, but did you eat anywhere near as many fruits and vegetables before going raw vegan, as you do now? Because I can eat about a half to two-thirds of my food as a raw vegan would, but I die for a hot meal or broth somewhere in my day, especially the colder months. So I ask because I wonder if even though you ate mostly nutritiously before going raw vegan, did you only get the benefits and weight-loss after going fully raw vegan? Because I wonder if I'd still get those benefits myself.

[@RawFoodRomance]

I’m sure you’d get great benefits because low fat is a big part of the weight loss. Plant based diet, high raw, low fat. I never did that though I just went raw straight from a high fat animal product and junk food diet with rare fruit and veg

Testing, do you know a good resource, for the b12, iron, D3 etc. I always wanted to have this done, drs don’t test for these type things when you ask them. Also the microbiome testing, and pathogen testing, if know of any. Thx

[@RawFoodRomance]

For B12, D and Hs C reactive I did an at home test with www.rootine.co and for testing other stuff you can pay and request blood tests from places like www.Jasonhealth.com
