I had chinese food the other and I felt so dehydrated after eating it. I'll never have that again and keep with my fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds.
ugh I get it!! i feel the same if I had cooked food!
I ate some vegan Mac n cheese and got soo sick ugh 😭 Sticking to my fruits, veggies, nuts, and seeds too because bruh. And I had the nerve to microwave it 😭😂 Can you say bad idea? 🤣
397 before stroke now im 238! Ill see u. At 190
You ladies look so amazing.
I was 295-300 lbs with a knee replacement than I happen to see a video from John McDougall. What he was saying I would believe it an on one his video he said, " Give me 2 weeks if you don't feel better continue with your diet". So I took his challenge..
It hard only cause I was not used to eating like that. I almost gave up on my first meal, but I stuck with it. I lost over 100 lbs, and not going back anymore. After COVID when I saw my everyone thought I got or was sick. I told them I never felt so alive in my life. Everyone says how sick they feel but won't give it a chance. Both of my 35yrs old or so obese, I tell them to watch videos like these, but can't force them. Love your videos. Stay young, beautiful and healthy. Thank you 👍
Thanks for the recommendation. I will give it a go too.
Does Dr McDougall recommend raw? I thought he was the starch guy ?
@@allysonmccormack5529he is a starch guy. I lost 25 lbs eating that way. He does recommend fruit as snacks. I incorporated more fruit into my diet but I did eat starches as well. Mostly potatoes.
“Dropping the perfectionism” I just love that❣️ Instead of “failing” this is such a better approach. Those “slips” with cooked food are really good for reminding us of how much better we feel on the raw foods, and then they become fewer and farther in between.
so true ❤️
@@GillianBerryDay 34 here and going strong 34 🙋🏿♀️. I would actually feel weird trying to eat something now. 🤦🏿♀️. That’s just no longer a part of my day. I’m down about 20lbs now. ❤
@@BBFLYRISEN wow!!!! way to go!!!!!
My husband and I went raw vegan about 14 years ago and we were raw for around 7 years , but then went travelling and it was too difficult. We are getting back to it now, that is why I am watching everything for inspiration.
On raw, the energy is incredible, clarity and stability of mind. Just peaceful. We also had my dad who had Alzheimers join us for 5 years and a lot of his issues were reversed. In fact he went from sleeping for 18 hours and not able to get out of the house with a major depression as well, to staying awake for 16 hours a day, going to the beach by himself and his depression was actually lifted in 1 week from starting raw.
Since getting off raw, although we still eat about 70% raw, we gained weight, I got a mind fog and my skin is not that great, not looking hydrated. I also have a bad taste in my mouth which I cannot stand. We eat very clean and by society standards we are really healthy for our age (at 65 still are not taking any medications), but having done it before, I know I can do better...
When it comes to suntanning for sensitive skin, I was super sensitive and burned really easily. When I started on raw, it went down substantially. Then I discovered Baiden Mitten and that was another game changer. I could stay in the sun for couple of hours without burning and peeling. Since going off raw and still using the mitt, I don't burn easily, but my skin is a lot drier... Really looking forward to getting the energy and vitality back soon :-)
That’s an amazing testimony about your dad! Thanks for that! ❤
Today is my second day eating mostly raw. I haven’t done the bulk of my grocery shopping yet so I’m doing my best with what I have. I needed to hear the part about not being all or nothing. If I can do 90% raw most days… I’ll reap the benefits! Thanks for the insp!
@@Karenhypnotic I found it a lot easier to go fully raw than partially. My mind just switched. I got rid of anything that needed to be cooked and went raw overnight. Took me about 2 weeks to get fully adjusted and my main food was fruit and lots of fresh salads with really great dressings. They were the game changer.
I did not even have a dehydrator for the first year so it was very basic, but the results were so fast that it did not matter.
Of course on raw your taste buds change as well and so everything you eat is X100 more flavoursome so we did not miss anything 🙂
It's helpful for me to hear experience of people who have struggled with food addiction specifically.. When you come from food addiction, the transition can feel really overwhelming as you have a not so healthy relationship with food anyway.. So, their perspective really helps me to customize it for my situation and be gentle on me. So, thanks for inviting Katie for this interview, Gillian. You both look amazing!
❤️❤️❤️🙏
Well done you two 🥰. I am still on my journey and Katie just motivated me further 🙏
so happy to hear!
Katie is a gem! Real, down to earth and her food is beautiful and simple which makes her super inspiring 💛
Another great interview!!Katie is very down to earth and helpful.
I had my last cheat meal today and am going raw tomorrow I'm so excited I'm hoping to gain some curves and get a flat tummy and sleep well and have energy for a run
I love Kate’s energy. Fabulous relatable implementable tips. Thx.
Omg so funny. I am rewatching this for motivation after asking for a sign. I’ve watched so many of your videos. Then…JUST realized that I am the channel that asked her about self-love 😂 How did I not notice that before? I’d say that’s another clear sign for me.
😁😁😁
I'm agree with her about juice fasting... I always feel like I'm triggered and wind up eating way too much coming off. The best fast is a constant high fruit raw vegan lifestyle! 🙌 That color on your pops, Gillian!💕
thank you!
I found this to be true for me too. I like juices as added to my day like in place of soda and unhealthy juice. I love orange juice and celery juice but not the whole day.
Thank you for another great interview, Gillian! Katie is so inspiring, and I'm so happy for her!
I never get tired of hearing people share the same benefits like high energy, better intuition, etc. It's so motivating!
Your always putting in the hard work and always replying to comments! Thank you very much 💕
of course Frank !! happy to ,)))) my absolute pleasure !! love you all ❤️❤️
Gillian! Your channel is growing by leaps and bounds! Soooo happy for you sister!
im so happy it's growing !! 😁😁
thank you !! ❤️❤️❤️
So cool!!! I especially got a real kick of she couldn't stop smiling just thinking of the " joy of raw"!!!
Thank you once again for another inspiring interview! Love your vibes! So good to hear so many transformations! Amazing 👏❤️
❤️🤍❤️
What an inspiring interview. Congratulations on your success 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
love ya Marcia !!! always love reading your comments !
Love this interview! So inspiring!🤩🤩
So glad!
Congratulations!! I love these transformations 👏
me too!!
Love her.. it seems like she was led by the Holy Spirit.. so proud of her courage and determination.. the naysayers didn’t deter her.. Katie Elizabeth is a great inspiration.. Thank you for this interview Gillian..
you are so very welcome 💜💜💜
Is she a Christian? Cool!
I love how she says raw food found her. Same here. It's made me a total minimalist myself. ;)
amazing
What a beautiful transformation. Enjoyed hearing her journey, very genuine.
💛💛💛
It’s really smart for most people to slowly work up to raw by doing the starch solution first. It’s very satisfying and it prepares the body. Much easier than a cold water plunge from the standard American diet.
Gillian, another brilliant interview, thank you for all your work, I went fully raw at the end of 2000, did it for 7 years, felt amazing, looked amazing, had so much energy and truly became an excellent raw chef, I lived in Connecticut at the time and most of my friends jumped on the bandwagon so the support system was there, so now it is time for me to return to raw foods, thank you for your inspiration, there is only one thing that bothers me is when people being proud of how they look on a raw diet show themselves wearing bikinis, honestly I don't see the point of it.
🧡🧡
Congratulations, keep up the good work!
I follow her on Instagram, and have been very inspired by her. Great interview!
isn't she awesome!! I love her IG!
Great video. I'm from Chicago and hearing Katie talk about our deep dish pizza, it made me think of Gino's pizza. It's the bomb!! Thanks for sharing your raw vegan journey.
Happy birthday Gillian! 🎂
TY!!!!!!!!
Absolutely inspiring story!! Thank you so much for sharing it, both of you... Gillian again as per usual delivers great content consistently sharing the wisdom of not only plant based eating, but raw plant based eating. And Katie, we are around the same age...you said you were 20 in 2009...I was 21, so I vibed with you just with that, but I myself have struggled with weight loss among many other things like yourself that led me to raw veganism. I thoroughly enjoyed your story, thank you for sharing! 🙏❤️
you are so welcome! I am oh so happy you are enjoying the content Lee!!
Oh and Happy Birthday Gillian 🤗
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙💙
Great interview 🙏
happy you enjoyed it Samantha!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing her story !!! Again Happy Birthday Gillian ! So happy you are here . Such positivity ! We all need to help each other keep going for a better healthy and happy life ! The standard of what is being offered in the main stream is not the same as it was years ago . Our grandparents ate more fresh food from rhe garden or veg stand . They did eat meat but it wasn’t how people are eating now . Considering the way the animals live and die in factory farming , veganism is the way to go . Raw is amazing . I woke to my birthday this morning doing shots 😂. Ginger probiotic shot to start off my next year 👍🏻🌸
So true !!!
THANK YOU so much Bobbie!!!!!! so happy to be here and interact with amazing people like you and all the amazing guests I interview!
yeah so true!!! LOL love it!!!!!! HBD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gillian, I positively loved this interview! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I never knew why but I couldn’t be a vegan much less a vegetarian, but years ago when I discovered the raw vegan diet, I wanted to do it but I couldn’t because the only thing that has always resonated with me has been the fruitarian diet, and your guess here has validated me.
I am a huge fan of Eli, Alice, prof. Arnold Ehret, and and the frugivore diet. I have tried and tried but I cannot be a vegetarian or vegan or even raw vegan! I must be a fruitarian because it is the only thing that truly resonates with me.
Your guess said something very important-well, she said a lot of very important things, to be clear-, but she mentioned that we ought to follow what we align with, and indeed we ought to.
One day Gillian, when I become a proper fruitarian and have a great story to share, I hope you invite me to your channel. In the mean time, I am so grateful for the inspiration you give! 🙏🏼
DITTO!!!
That’s really interesting. Is it that you don’t like eating greens and veggies? They just don’t resonate with you?
I would love to have you on one day! love you Rosie!
@@GillianBerry 💗🥰🌷
@@jennifereileen no, I actually love greens and vegetables-always have, even whilst eating junk foods. But fruitarianism simply resonated with me ever since I discovered raw foods.
What a great guest!
Can you please interview Chef Ocean from California and also Raw Chef Yin from Malaysia? They're so amazing, I'd love to see you talk to them! Thank you! :)
yes will look into them forsure!!!!!! xoxo
@@GillianBerry thank you! Can't wait!😍🥳
I'm a 35 year old guy being raw for a year and I have a little crush on Gillian.
:)))
So inspiring thanks 😊
you are so welcome 💜💜💜
Wow she looks fabulous well done xxx
Good interview. Enjoyed you both. And yes, I think the process is an evolution and do the best you can and keep going
Another wonderfully inspiring chat. Where does Katie live? Does she live in a warm or colder climate. I have noticed how very healthy and vibrant all of your guests look.
yes love having on these amazing stories and I agree they all do look amazing!
I forget off hand where she lives !!!
Hi Gillian! Have you ever thought about starting a podcast which is just the audio of your RUclips videos? Potential to capture more peeps, and means I can listen without having to open (and keep open) RUclips 😜
hey !! yes I already have that ! They're available on spotify & apple !
I just have to update it this week but tons are on there ,)
@@GillianBerry fantastic!! Xo
I love fruits so I think I'm going to do just fruits again for a bit...yes, she does have beautiful skin!
today I am just eating bananas for one day and feels amazing for a break:))
In Germany NOBODY EVER asks or comments on my big fruit / vggie shopcart , people here are soooo stiff and stuck in their own head 😂 exceot on the celery, when I buy 4 bunches of celery sometimes sb asks what I'm with it
Nice. 👍🏻 If we remove the common drugs (caffeine, alcohol, refined anything), we can sense more of our true needs. It seems that way, to me. And the “mess ups” or eating something that we usually don’t, helps us recognize what it does to us the next day. (I think Dr Goldhamer has a book about the Pleasure trap)
I love watermelons, tomatoes, watermelon juice, fresh tomato juice. Drawn to those a lot right now. Cucumbers, too.
😁😁🌻🌻🌻🌻
Hey Julian,
What is juice cleaning?
I take smoothie often, can it be a cleaning If I only take those smoothies all day, day after day ?
Thanks
hey!! technically a juice cleanse is only juice........but a cleanse can be whatever works for you and it is still a level of cleansing on smoothies!
sooo cooool💗💚💙 thank you
💙💙💙💙💙💙
So Inspiring 🌠🌠🌠
happy you think so!
Same hear I see the next day for sure what is happening with my body how it's reacting to it.
so true!
Gillian interview Eduardo Corassa he is raw foodist for long and he is now a nutritionist. He helps lots of people on Brazil . He is great
FRUGAL HEALTH is his channel
This was so good
What book would you suggest for food combinations ?
hmm that's a good question! I don't know if I have read any specifically on that! But I am sure there are lots! For me I have learned starting the day with lighter to digest stuff the juices and fruits then working my way into heavier stuff like the salads and avocados and nuts etc..........a lot of people say dont' combine fruit and overt fats...there's lots of stuff out there on this stuff tho:)
Great Channel
🙏❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You could say “Don’t ask about my protein and I won’t ask about your cholesterol.” 😁
lol
Gillian, on a raw vegan diet, how can I maintain or avoid the massive weight loss? I’d like to do it for healing purposes.
hey !!) i maintain a great weight im 125 lbs ans 5 foot 7! i weigh more than when I wasn't raw ! I would say just make sure to eat a lot / enough calories ! ❤️❤️❤️
Yea that is a problem initially. It’s very difficult to overeat in this lifestyle but you can easily get short of calories if you try to restrict it.
i feel more unregular on cooked food, even cooked veggies, is that typical?
I’m just wondering how do you all clean and prepare the raw fruits and veggies? Do you clean it all at once? And salad.. how do you clean it? And what types of fruit is easy to travel with like fruit that doesn’t require refrigeration? I’m a flight attendant but I really want to be raw! 😏
Hmm, good question. When I was going to office for work I used to carry orange bag or bag of grapes, wash them out during break and then eat it. I know it can be difficult but the best way is to always carry fruits in bulk.
What about mushrooms.? You can’t eat them raw and mushrooms are full of antioxidants.
Raw food romance has lots of recipes using mushrooms. You can marinate them and dehydrate them in order to eat them raw and be safe about it.
I think there are some that can be eaten raw? I don't have much experience with mushrooms though!
SOUNDS GASSY THEM FARTS BE BLOWIN THESE GIRLS STEALING ALL THE GAS WTF jk
Can you interview a raw vegan who knows about health moon cycles?
sure let me add this to my list !
I have heart palpitations any time I eat hamburgers or anything like that 😢 I have been doing raw for 9 days and my sleep has been interrupted and I’m tired the past 2 days. I’m going to push through because I’m 12 lbs down since the 7th of June.
Hi, I was also really tired in the beginning! It passed!
☀️🍉💪👏
Hey Gillian, once again a really helpful, informative episode. I'm still not clear on the protein intake tho. What is she taking in particular for protein? Beans are too heavy for my stomach so I can't use it continually.
But I'm definitely trying to go for more healthy options. I have so many foods sensitively and reactions.
I am sorry you are dealing with so much food sensitivity!! I used to also....I don't anymore so maybe that can change for you too!!!!!! I can bring up protein more with people in future vids forsure! I think I did a vid last year on top vegan protein sources too
Start sprouting! Remember the largest land animals are plant eaters 🌿 Lots of protein and calcium in greens. For information I bought “The Sprout Book” by Doug Evans 💕
@@GillianBerry thank you ♥️
@@lynleman6283 thank you ♥️. I will look for videos on sprouting.
I eat my last meal at 430 and eat my next meal at 830 or 9
amazing
Water melon and ice cream?
Gillian your amazing do you believe in God? He created all these fruits and the Bible starts with a fruitarian diet and ends with a fruitarian diet
yes I do believe in God but I don't necessarily believe everything in the bible
I don't do a fruitarian diet
it doesn't work for me
I like to do mono clenanses of only fruit but then I miss my greens I like a variety
but I love hearing the stories of people who do
Are you still raw vegan?
@@alicec9092 yes! I don't only eat fruit tho ! I eat fruit, veg, nuts and seeds ! raw ! but I am all for everyone doing what works for them ! even if it's only fruit ! I share a lot of fruitarian stories on my channel !
Coffee is extremely healthy and extends life expectancy
Its healthy if you leave it in the ground and dont consume it
