Hi Everyone

I'm very new to raw (and so excited by the possibilities), but posting this seems to be a good way to get to grips with this site . . .

My partner and I have been mostly raw for all of a month now and we're certainly feeling the benefits! I know it's not all about weight loss, but suddenly I can fit into clothes I haven't worn for years and have so much more energy as well.

I'm turning 41 in September and so my partner and I are celebrating with a long weekend in Istanbul - to see an ancient city of course and also to visit the LifeCo restaurant there. Can't wait!

We're also planning to go to California for Christmas. There are just so many restaurants listed in the USA compared with what's available in London. I just can't wait to see what the future brings, especially if it continues to include raw chocolate :)

Best wishes
Antony

Hi Anthony and welcome. I'm up in Sheffield and there are quite a few people from the London area on here plus other UK folk.

Istanbul and California. Wow, sounds like you've got an interesting few months ahead!! Enjoy your raw journey too!

Love Iishin

Hello All

Many thanks for your warm welcomes. I've just had such a surprising experience. Yesterday afternoon I found myself catching a cold & luckily recalled an Alissa and Revvell podcast in which they recommended going with it. Good advice. Okay, I did have a soluble asprin but I would normally have nuked and suppressed the symptoms with cold & flu tablets. I decided to listen to my body and stayed with the nausea and feeling delicate, as it were. I ate mostly apples at work today and a smoothie this evening. Already starting to feel good!

Time to delve further into rawfoodtalk.com. Perhaps I'll even discover if G Star Raw actually raw?
