Hi everyone, I've been 100% raw now for 48 days and want to go on a raw food retreat.  Is there an address that anyone can give me for this in NSW?  Want my dh to go with me as he eats all the raw food but still likes cooked too.  I think a retreat for a weekend would be great for both of us.  Prior to 48 days ago I was doing raw but every now and then having a bit of cooked and was like that for 5 months.  I'm so glad to have actually made 100% now and want to keep this as my way of life.  Managed to stop taking meds for stomach ulcer, meds for asthma and meds for arthritis.  So I have a lot of reasons for staying raw, it's a great way to live.

 laugh  Welcome and congrats Annie P!   48 days is huge. 

Hippocrates is what started me on raw.  I had no idea such a thing existed till I went to them - it changed my life.
If you have already been raw though, you would know all the basics already.  Hippocrates does a detox and then introduces the basic fruits & vegetable salads.  Unless they run other programmes now, check it out.

Thanks Joybell,  I'll check it out.  I want to eat this way for the rest of my life as it has made me so fit and well.
I see you are also in Sydney. Do you go to raw food meetups? I only know of one other person around me that is raw and we meet up usually at my place.

 huh  Hi Annie  -  Yes!  Sydney potlucks every month.  Next one this Sunday 2nd March in Centennial Park.  Sorry I didn't get back to you before but the threads move on so quickly I didn't see your question till now.

Rawgasm has given you the web address for our potlucks and they are usually around the end of month.  If you can make it on Sunday we will be near the duckpond, Lachlan reserve Centennial park at 12.   RAW sign written on a board so you can find us.  We will be the healthy non-barbecue crowd, lol !

Joybel are all your get togethers on Sundays?  I can't make it if they are.  I live in Camden, anyone else in this direction, it's an hour south of Sydney.

 laugh  In Summer we usually have the Sunday get togethers but in winter Gay & Denis kindly offer their place in Randwick and we do Saturday night dinners. 
Still a long drive from Camden but I come from Wentworthville past Parramatta and it takes me about an hour some days.  I feel it's worth the once a month drive  -  the food is always fabulous, the people are great and we all have SO much to talk about! 
Simon from Campbelltown comes to the potlucks occasionally but otherwise I don't know anyone down that way.
One of these days we will have to try and have a picnic down that way!

Have'nt been around for a while with family probs.  Still maintaining 100% raw must be 3 1/2 months now.  Coming into winter so hope I can continue.

I have meet ups with a rawbie in Balmain as have been unable to get to the Sydney raw group meetups.  Hopefully you can meet up one day in this direction   yahh

Been doing basically 80/10/10 but do love raw cashew cheese on top.  I think I need to eat a bit more as I only weigh 95 lbs and I'm not doing raw to lose weight but to be fit and healthy.

Just ordered a spiralizer so am looking forward to using it and making some delicious dishes.  Ordered raw kelp noodles which are very nice but had to be posted from USA.

If you ring Hippocrates they have a raw dinner and info night on Sundays i think, good intro to there stays. Detox with Colonics, food, exercise, sauna and juices, it is ok but premises bit run down. go to rawpower.com.au to see if they are having a weekend up by Byron or not cooking classes, they are great.
