Thank God, (tah-dah!) I'm Here!

[jaydee]

Hey Everybody! I'm a newbie and today is DAY ONE! I've fasted and cleansed and tried just about everything to regain my health and energy for years but when I saw Alissa on Tyra's show I said, "this is it!" Fatigue and being overweight has consumed me for too long and I know I'm better than this!

A little about my environment: Currently my husband and I are raising our 2 grandsons (15 & 8yrs. old), my youngest daughter (20 yrs) is at home attending a local community college. I'm employed full time outside my home and I'm taking 2 classes toward the completion of my BA in Business Admin. (Yep, granny stays busy).

Healthwise, as I stated, fatigue is wearing me down! I've got high blood pressure, back pains, overweight, swollen ankles, and recovering from a nasty sinus infection. I was attending Slim for Life but I just wasn't feeling it was right for me.

All this said, I still try to stay somewhat active. Last week, a friend and I took a striptease aerobic class! Woo-hoo!;) I'm pumped, prayed up, and ready to start this walk!

Anything info, warnings, advice you have for me is appreciated. Oh, Morn, God bless you, Honey! I read your bio and almost started cheering!!! :D

I'm looking forward to chatting with all of you!

Congratulations on your recent decision! You sound like an amazing person. I understand how challenging it is to raise boys (mine are 8 and 17 very close to your grandkids), but God has given them to you for a reason. Good luck in all of your current endeavors. I look forward to watching your progress.

Raw is great and it will change you, it might or it might not be a little challenging but as long as you keep going you will succeed. I have no warnings but I do have a little advice, if you don't have Alissa's book you should buy it and my other piece of advice is learn how to make enough raw meals so that it will help you when you start to crave different foods. Oh it might be a good idea to setup a blog so that we can cheer you on and keep up with your journey.

Welcome to the board
