i'm new to this site and new to a raw food lifestyle. i started approx. 2 weeks and am 75% raw right now. with all the fresh fruits, vegetables and tons of water on a daily basis, i feel bloated. does this go away naturally over time, or is there something i can eat/drink to induce diuresis?

also, i realize i'm just starting and not 100% raw, but my complexion looks worse now than before i started. is this an example of the "it will get worse before it gets better" phenomenon, or am i not incorporating the "right" things and still eating the "wrong" things, so to speak?

thank you for any feedback.

I had the same thing happen... my body wasn't used to all the fiber so I puffed up. lol
My skin also had bad breakouts, and they're slowly going away.

Be patient :)
