Hi everyone! I'm Val and I'm new to the Raw foods way of eating. I live in Southern California, and am looking forward to getting to know lots of people through this site.

Hey Val,

Welcome! I'm envious...I hear you have great raw foods restaurants down there. I have seriously been considering moving to California for a few years now. You'll have to tell me all about which parts are the nicest!

Congratulations on your lifestyle decision. I also am a bit envious of your situation with availability of lots of restaurants and organic fresh produce! Hang in there, you won't regret your decision to go raw.

I'm about 80% raw but I can't seem to loose weight like you all talk about.
What am I doing wrong? Am I eating too many nuts, or too much fat.
I eat mostly smoothies and salads, and some cooked meals for supper. I appreciate any help you can offer.
