I want to do a sit down dinner with servers, i know that can get super expensive, but.. i dont have all that much money. what are some good yet simple and possibly a little on the cheaper side menu ideas. I know we both want fried green beans, those are our favorite food. what can we have to compliment those. we are also going to do a fruit/cheese/veggie table with a chocolate fountain and punch fountain and have 3 cakes, one of which is a surprise he doesn’t know about. my wedding cake is red velvet and his will be probably something lemon. his favorite. we are doing black and white with a little pink (in the flowers, mini calla lillies, pink and white hydrangeas.) i want the food to match the elegant simple wedding. if that makes any sense.

I really want to go on the raw foods diet. I’ve heard so many good things. That and all the recipes look cool in general!
When I told my dermatologist he even sugested it may be a good idea seeing how my acne doesnt seem to be getting any better.Anyways! I bought a deyhydrator,I have an old juicer etc. Nuts costs so much money, and I know many of the recipes call for nuts. I’m planning to be on it for 1-2 weeks (at first at least). Even my dad was thinking about going on it. With 2 people; how much should I buy and generally which are the main nuts to go for? Is it ok if I still drink store bought soy milk instead of making it? What about store bought Natural Peanut Butter (nuts and salt)? Will little things like that make any difference?How is it possible I dont have to worry about calorie counting with this even with the high cals you find in nuts and dried fruit? What are the foods to go easy on? One site says go forth and eat, another says to not over do nuts, avocados, fruit.
-the site that said not to over the higher fat foods could have just been saying to make sure I get a variety..right?
Do you think 1-2 weeks at a time is sufficeint?
(if you can please answer the amount of nuts I should buy question; amongst the other 1000 I asked – I really appreciate it!)

Okay, I am not only going on a diet, I’m going to try to turn my whole lifestyle around too. I want to eat healthier so I feel better physically and about myself. But first things first- I need to lose some weight, and so I was wondering, does anyone have some helpful food suggestions?? try to think cheap please if possible (because I’m a highschool student with only a weekend job, so I don’t make much money.) And also any helpful little routine excersises? I have the basics, but other ideas wouldn’t hurt to try out.
thanks!

I just watched a documentary on going on a raw food diet, and from what I saw it’s supposed to make you feel a LOT better, but how would you go about starting this diet without spending TOO much money?
