Hi, I just wanted to introduce myself to the forum. I have tried raw for no longer than a week at a time a couple of times. Each time, I had amazing results, but without the, um, commitment (?), I was not able to stick with it. I have, however, been vegan for a number of years, and I love it. I have had, in my opinion, really bad acne for about 2 years (I'm 26). I also think I may have candida. BUT the good news is (I know positive thinking plays a part in it), I believe that a diet rich in nutritious raw food will definitely cleanse my body and bring about beautiful skin. I'm excited!

Oh, and I'm from Atlanta.

Hey!!! Good name!!! And a good place for you to be - this forum.
Do you have Alissa's book? It is THE best one out there. Full of information that the others do not have and a ton of recipes!!! It's a heavy (4 pound) book, but so, so worth it. I always refer back to hers.
Incorporate Green Smoothies into your diet. They are chock full of already broken down goodness.
Here's a link to some recipes:
