I´ve always admired you from afar with all your niche perseverence, the article marketing - you have way more patience than I´ve shown... =) I actually stopped the trial on day 21 so I could experience the food at Sao Paulo. As I said in the negatives, being social is an issue on raw food. I talked with a raw food restaurant owner in Rio, and she passionately told me that going 100% raw is something she doesn´t believe in. She says a lot of raw good experts might say they´re 100%, but then she sees them eating non-raw (she takes a lot of classes and is considered renowned in her field). She went on and on about how food is an important part of culture and if I want to ´cheat´once in a while, I absolutely need to. She also talked about a group of people who are 100% raw that always come to the restaurant, and says they won´t go to birthday parties because they don´t want to be tempted by chocolate cake. Who wants to live that way? High raw seems the best, in my opinion =) As far as Tim´s diet, it seemed to work better for men than women in the comments... not sure though. It definitely looks sound, I just couldn´t vibe with it when I looked at it. I´d love to hear how you do though!! You could definitely do it if you wanted to, I think you´re WAY disciplined.

I know for a fact I couldn't do that - just started Tim Ferriss's 'Lose 20 Pounds In 30 Days' diet yesterday and I'm already struggling! I know I won't lose 20 pounds (I'm not actually overweight) but I just kind of feel compelled to lose some weight before Christmas (the health thing is important to me too of course!). The aesthetics thing has struck a chord with me though - I'm only 28 and I can already see just the faintest hint of wrinkles starting to form. VERY worrying!
