...I am not as new as you would all think to this lifestyle... This is my 96th day raw! But I am still new to it all and its my first signing in on this forum... I've been roaming here and there for a while, trying to get a feel for the people and the food, and let me say : WOWOW! Thank you! Such wisdom, encouragement, compassion, advice and AMAZING raw food recipes to share with everyone! Not only does all of this support make a person happy, but also Healthier both in mind, body and spirit!

I'm here because I've always been quite obsessed with health. Being a dancer all of my life, I have seen all kinds of diets. Although I don't consider the raw food thing a diet, more of a healthy lifestyle, its advertised as one, and if that brings awarness to all of those suffering, then let us all call it a diet!

I live in Victoria, British Colombia and, although it is quite gloomy today, the spirit of the people, and the beauty that surrounds this town, makes it all worth it!

I am thrilled to be a part of this glorious movement towards better health and better lives!

Very cool! 96 days! WHOA!
What changes have you noticed?
And you are right. It IS a lifestyle, not a diet...

Thanks for the great welcome!

For changes...:

I've noticed a burst of energy come out of thin air... and it follows me to the end of my days and is still there as I wake up in the morning..

I've been a CHOCOLATE addict for as long as I can remember tasting it, and, although I still occasionaly have some, I have begun using raw cacao and other substitutes for it! And that for me, is QUITE the improvement...

I have changed my whole perception of life completely over! Meaning that I have rediscovered ME : the likes, the dislikes, and all that jazz... to make Me more and more REAL. And isn't that what its all about!

I actually have immense gratitude now for those around me! And I give, and give, and give because I now know that this is how happiness finds a way into my life! And its done naturally of course.

My thoughts are clearer, and my eyes see clearer images! Seeing a beautiful tall tree swaying in the wind on a sunny day with all its purety often makes me grateful for all this lifestyle has to offer!

I'm still struggling with a few physical challenges (but very minor)... but I am convinced that in time, all will heal!

Yah!
