Hi, I'm new!

[Bella77]

Hi all, I am new to eating raw. I just started a week ago and am only 2 meals a day raw right now, dinner I have cooked, but vegetables and rice, vegan meals only. I am trying to break my carbohydrate/sugar addiction and lose a little weight ( about 10 pounds). I am trying to set a good example for my children, who have started eating more fruit since seeing Momma doing it!!! They are also eating more veggies- they found out they like steamed fresh brocolli! I just wanted to introduce myself and am looking forward to being part of this community and learning lots!

Good for you! I have a pretty healthy sugar addication also... The other day I was REALLY cravinf some wicked bad stuff (unmentionable items, lest they inspire any of us to go astray). I grabbed a handful of raw pecans from the cupboard and drizzled a modest amount of raw honey over them. That, and a pot of good jasmine green tea REALLY hit the spot. I felt like I was having raw "turtles." The sumptuous flavors of the good food really came through.

Good luck to you. Keep us posted!

and I applaud you for taking steps to set a great example for your children! I find that nagging less and "showing" more works wonders for my boys. I wish you absolute success in your goals.
