Hi there everyone !!
Im glad to tell you all I'm on my 26th day of 100% raw.. and love it !
I've stopped used the birthconrtol pills as i started... and my hormones are back to normal i guess ^_^ cause ive never been more calm...
Lately I'm too lazy to cut my food or even prepare it :\ i just wash anything and eat... fruits... vegtables and nuts... i do bit of salads here and there and trying to get into sprouting now ^_^ (at the moment sprouting wholewheat)
and started going to an energetic healing treatments... and i just feel like a new person ! i feel soo much happier and energetic and childish... omg its amazing ! i look fabulous and feel just great !!!

though I've got some side effects which I was wondering about... i've checked some posts here from the past about them and tried to go by the advices there... though I cant be bothered to do too many smoothies at the moment... though I'll try... its not on a daily basis with me...

so first is the hair loss ! I saw people say they've had it after a few months on raw.... but i guess it was because they are older than me ? im 19 years ... is it possible for me to start lossing hair in great amounts after only 26 days?
i've tried putting aloavera on them... I think it helped a bit... but my hair is really dry... (i've stopped using shampoo- use organic cold pressed oils one ,soap- use cold pressed oils one aswelll with defferent things in it everytime like cinamon cucambers etc... and started brushing my teeth with soda- god thats some thing to get used to...) -bought from health shops btw..
will my hair get shiny and not dry any soon? and stop falling? :(

second issue... is about my feces... it seem to get really better from eating raw.. but somedays i have really weird feces with blood... or at least i think its blood or something... :\ is it cleaning the hell everything out of me? I mean is it possible it will clean, I dunno dead cells etc?
will it disapear after a while?

lol sorry for the crazy panic and discuting theam... but i would just like to know if anyone had it or know anything about it...

btw anyone new to this ! dont worry ! just do it ^_^ we're all different !

with lots of light and love to you all,
THANK YOU !!

Hey :) Is the Blood red/fresh? or Black like tar? If it is red then you are probably a little raw from the detox and it will pass. If you are having sticky tar like feces then the blood comes from deeper in the body and you should be more concerned. Going Raw has way more benefits than not so if you get a little bottom sore then you will need to ride it out. I use Fresh Aloe Vera in my smoothies to help to soothe my innerds :) hehe

Also be aware that some foods can look...strange when they come out. I had a scare with something I thought was a blood clot. But then I realized it was skin from a red bell pepper! :o

It's a shame you can't "be bothered" with green smoothies. They are such a wonderful compliment to a raw diet and sooooo easy to make and drink. Plus your body utilizes them so quick. They also heal one very quickly as your body assimilates them faster then even whole raw foods...But it's your call...

You mentioned you recently stopped taking bc pills, that's probably why your hair is falling out, because of the hormonal changes.

When I was on BC years ago, I had hairloss after stopping them as well. It didn't last long and not a lot of hair was lost. I wouldn't stress about it.

BTW, congratulations on stopping the birth control pills. They are soooo bad for the body.

I agree with Lucy, you should atleast try the green smoothies. They really are amazing. Do a search and read about the wonderful effects they've had on others and then see for yourself!

Sounds like you are going through a good detox. I had the sores on my tongue too when I first started. It goes away......your body is getting rid of all the gunk.
