Newly raw from Canada On! *Waves*

[trinity082482]

Hi my name is Jen. I am a 24 year old mother of a 3 year old beautiful boy and Over the past few weeks I have jumped on the wagon and I've decided to go raw. Im doing an 8-9 month trial to see if its right for me.
Why raw?
I have so many symptoms I would love to try and diminish like heavy periods, low energy, im 25 lbs over weight, I have arthritis and joint inflamation and worst of all I have a 2nd breast lump. I had the 1st one removed in Dec 04. I think this new lump was a higher powers way of telling me to shape up or ship out. I have a toddler and I can't imagine not being there for him. I can't live without him. This is why Im going raw and I hope it ends up being a life saver for me.
I will be posting alot on this message board and I post on http://www.rawfoodsupport.com because I have no idea what Im doing LOL.

Take care!!
:D

Hi Jen!
I have period problems as well!
I am sure raw will help us!
Maybe we should post a question to the ladies!

Hi and welcome.

I am also from Canada, Edmonton specifically.

I have been raw for 7 months, and it definitly helped with my period problems. 2 months after going raw I noticed I was regular for the first time in my life.

Yeah for Canadian raw! Maybe the Canadians can dream up solutions for cold days on raw.

Raw generally helps people with the alphabet of problems (acne - to pms to sleep disturbances etc. etc.) -- trust you will have as many fab results!

Welcome! I'm studying at Waterloo University in the Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario area.

It's good to have more Canadians here, since we all know how cold it gets in the winter and what the produce is like, etc. ;)
