I give you the amazing and amazingly POPULAR Veggie Girl!
She’s vegan.
She’s gluten-free.
She’s soy-free.
She’s high-raw.
And has finally found the way of eating which helps her to manage her Crohn’s Disease.
She has a passion for nutrition, cooking/baking, food photography, animals, fitness (yoga & strength-training), writing, and MUCH more.
She’s also (I know!) juggling school (journalism major) & leaning towards a career in broadcast journalism.
MizFit note: click the video and POOF! Veggie Girl gets bigger.
And, if you want a serving of MizFit today, Im blogging over at Yahoo! (yada yada yada please to comment there if you can.)

April 23, 2009 at 3:50 amLOVE Veggie girl! So glad she started up veggie girl tv!! One of these days I’ll start vlogging too!
Yum Yucky says
April 23, 2009 at 3:55 amForgive me, but she doesn’t *appear* to be well or thriving and I think its her diet.
Bea says
April 23, 2009 at 4:07 amOh and I liked the video and LOVE reading VeggieGirl.
She had such a big fan base!

April 23, 2009 at 6:08 amVeggieGirl is very popular at our house. My husband now refers to VeggieGirl TV as his Saturday morning cartoons. He’s a huge fan after receiving a batch of her amazing blondies.
I’ve met some amazing people through blogging, and VG is definitely one of the most considerate, kind, thoughtful, and encouraging bloggers out there. Love her!

April 23, 2009 at 6:14 amgoing to check her out! btw, you have an awesome bod. what is your training like?
Sagan says
April 23, 2009 at 6:34 amCan’t view the video from this computer but must add my voice to the masses in saying that I *heart* VeggieGirl!
Also don’t have a Yahoo account but I very much enjoyed your article- I have horrible sleeping problems, and I do all those things, but I found that since I started taking aikido and doing the breathing exercises its definitely helped me out a bit.
Bea says
April 23, 2009 at 6:52 amFYI:
I took me two minutes at yahoo.com to get an email acct (I’m not ever going to use it LOL) and comment.
charlotte says
April 23, 2009 at 6:52 amFor some reason google video and firefox combined won’t let me see the vid but I’m sure she’s veggie-rific. Although I have to say that I’ve heard of “raw” but not “high raw” – what is that?
VeggieGirl says
April 23, 2009 at 7:04 am**Charlotte:
Since I follow a high-raw diet, I consume mostly raw foods with a portion of cooked foods. To be more specific, I consume about 80-90% raw foods (10-20% cooked foods) during the warmer months, which decreases to about 70% raw (30% cooked) during the colder months.
This is true/what works for me – not all high-raw foodists follow the same percentages; and a high-raw diet may not be for everyone.
Merry says
April 23, 2009 at 7:10 amSadly, I’m also having problems accessing the video. It seems like a contradiction to have a passion both for baking and for raw foods, but I’m sure that’s explained.
And thanks for finding a new cool blog to check out! I’m usually not inspired to do any actual baking myself, but Whole Foods had a section of frozen stuff that was gluten free — I was surprised at how tasty it was.
Merry says
April 23, 2009 at 7:10 amSee, if I’d waited a minute longer, my comment would have become superfluous 🙁
Thanks Veggie Girl!
MizFit says
April 23, 2009 at 7:27 amlemmie see if I can “fix” the video.
works fine here from lap top and desk top!
Mara @ What's For Dinner? says
April 23, 2009 at 8:09 amYAY!!! Love the VG!!!!
tfh says
April 23, 2009 at 8:21 amCool! One of my close friends has struggled with Crohn’s. VeggieGirl, good for you for managing it and taking care of yourself while sticking to your moral beliefs.
Confession: I’ve totally lurked (and drooled) on your site for a loooong time now. If I could bake like you, I’m afraid I would be very low-raw. 😉
K says
April 23, 2009 at 8:25 amHooray for VG!!
dragonmamma/naomi w. says
April 23, 2009 at 9:01 amI checked out your website, and you have some fantastic sounding recipes! I feel better when I minimize the grains, so it’s great to find some other options.
Diana (Soap & Chocolate) says
April 23, 2009 at 9:07 amYay for VeggieGirl – she has been good to me. 🙂
s says
April 23, 2009 at 11:05 amveggiegirl, you rule! i’m a regular reader of both these blogs 🙂
dragonmamma/naomi w. says
April 23, 2009 at 11:12 amHey, Veggie Girl, I’m lost. I’m drooling over the photo’s on your website, but I can’t find the recipes! When I click on a photo, all I get is an enlarged photo. Where are the recipes?!
cher says
April 23, 2009 at 11:46 amif you can’t access the video here, go to Veggie Girl’s website that MizFit gives the link for. As far as her not looking healthy, please keep in mind, she has Crohn’s Disease, and that takes a terrible toll on the body. i have to give her props for trying to keep it in check with her nutrition. i have a friend that has it, and he eats like crazy and STILL looks that frail and pale.
josha says
April 23, 2009 at 11:50 amAmazing and wonderful that you have been able to find a way to manage Crohn’s Disease! That’s a tough one! It’s inspiring to see people not give up but just determine to find answers for themselves! My son doesn’t have Crohn’s, but has food intolerances and has to be many-things-free, including gluten. Ya just have to figure it out on your own, don’t ya? Kudos.
Ariel says
April 23, 2009 at 12:15 pmI love VeggieGirl! 😀
Jody - Fit at 51 says
April 23, 2009 at 12:22 pmMy aunt has Crohn’s disease & she is in her late 70’s & has lived with it from an early age. It is a very tough disease. She has had to have a lot of iron transfusions along the way.
I am going to send this site to her.
Thx!

The Crazy Woman Inside Me says
April 23, 2009 at 4:34 pmSo glad I discovered VeggieGirl through your blog, MizFit!
Loved the video. As someone battling an autoimmune disease myself, I understand the vital importance of a healthy diet in healing. Regrettably, many physicians don’t agree. It’s easier to prescribe a battery of meds than to monitor a patient who wants to try a natural dietary approach instead. Pity.

cesar ian lesmoras says
April 23, 2009 at 8:40 pmI don’t eat veggies so much but I know how veggies are very important to our body. So i’m gonna make practice of eating veggies. ^_^
Merry says
April 23, 2009 at 11:42 pmGreat video!
Thanks for tweaking, Miz. Rebooting seemed to fix the prob. Otherwise, I would have suspected a PEBCAK.
