Well guys,

It may not seem like a big deal but I made my FIRST 30 Raw!
I had some struggles with craving cooked food but was able to keep myself from slipping back even once into my old eating life and I can tell you that I have NEVER felt this good.

I never EVER thought that I would succeed and this has been a major goal acheived for me.
I have learned SO much here and had a place to read, comment and get the answers that I have been searching for and I wanted to Thank all of you :)

In one month, I have gone from barely unable to get up in the morning with back and leg pain, thinking that a walk to the car was more than I could cope with, to hoping YES HOPING out of bed with no pain and working for hours with just some yummy mangos for energy. *Sorry just a bit teary*

Finding the RAW lifestyle is definatley the best thing that has happend to me in my 45 years and with the help and dedication of those who have walked before me and seen the path, and they have cleared and worked and done so much of the work to make this so much easier for me to know and learn. I can see my path now.

So!!!! Here is to the first 30 days *clinks beautiful goblet with a Green smoothie* and to the rest of my 30 days here on this planet! CHeers :D

In celebration, I am off to the kitchen to cut some fruit for my morning smoothie which I will drink sitting out in the sunshine of a beautiful first 30 days of my new life.

RawPrincess you got it right girl, I dont HAVE to eat Raw, I GET TOOO

:D :) :D

Congrats Gracie! :)

I just made it through day 13 - so I'm nearly half way there. Tell me what changes I have to look forward to between now and day 30?

So far I have noticed very bright/clear eyes, but that started after a few days. My face looks more defined, so I think I've lost a little weight, nothing crazy though. Looking forward to that raw high! :D

For me it is FREEDOM! Freedom from the bond of eating what I dont want to. I have energy now that has been gone for years and years and when I walk to my car or do laundry I just.. DO IT! no fatigue, not winded.. Ease of motion in the morning and my clothes starting to loosen.

I have a lot of Deep cleansing to do I can feel it. I need work on my liver and my bowels but it is slowly getting better just eating RAW so I am taking my time and not rushing my healing process

Hang in there and enjoy each new day. I just read that the answer is not only the food choices but the moment to moment satisfaction and joy we take in what we do that matters.

Thanks for the congrats!

Thank you ALL for your sweet words :) You really have no clue how healing and supportive they are to me. I have never had anyone on my side in my weight issues and now to have a whole community of Awesome people close at hand is like a dream!!
EVERYDAY I sit down and read and I learn something or I hear something or I feel something! Everyone here is so good with give and take :)

U R ALL TEEEEERIFIC!

:) :D :) :D
