Hi Guys

Im from Tunbridge Wells in Kent.

I'm just starting out on raw after hearing about it 2 years ago. I met a guy in Spain when I was working there who had been raw a while.. He had done a uni course in food science and that convinced him eating raw was the best for our health.

So, i've read everything i could about it over that time and have finally decided to take the plunge. Alissa's book arrived from amazon yesterday so i'm frantically reading. I'll buy all the ingredients for week 1 and join in the 30 day challenge for november, I'm actually quite excited!:D

Although i have always loved fruit and veg over meat im neither a veggie or a vegan so it will be a big change for me. Also, i have no desire to do yoga but i do long distance running instead, 13 miles tomorrow, eek!

Look forward to chatting to you all on the 30 day challenge thread.

Welcome, Sunluvva, from another UK rawbie. I've been doing it for about 2 years, too.

Interesting what your friend decided after taking his uni course...

Good luck and look forward to chatting in the forum,

Hi there Im in Ashford kent & am joining the November 30 day challenge too, look forward to getting to know you better.
Up until about 7 or 8 weeks ago I was a meat eater too so this will be a huge change. Im going to adopt a strictly vegan diet from this weekend in preparation for going 100% raw. The cold weather has made me crave roasted veggies like sweet potatoes & butternut squash & also mashed swede etc so Im going to have a few 'goodbye' meals next week!

I'm glad you've got Alissa book - it is so filled with information, and I used it daily .... I actually followed the 30 day plan in her book for my first 30 days.... without it - I know I would've failed. Glad you are here!!
