Hi Folks, Just signed up this morning! I'm 58 and from Ohio.
Had dabbled in attempts at raw in the 80's. Even had a dehydrator... Family put up a fuss, was injured and different surgeries and still had to work full time to support three children... remarried to someone who found every which way to make a recipe unhealthy and I totally gave up!
Reached bottom in Jan. Started Qi Gong cleansing to get some kind of physical workout since I was having trouble doing a lot. Funny thing tho...it's made the foods at the house very unappealing. Found I've been craving fresh foods!! I've been changing my foods slowly the last three months and doing Qi Gong Cleansing at least 5x weekly.
I had 50 lbs. to lose (all gained after I was 45 years old and injured.) I've lost 9 lbs. and have 41 more to go! BP was 180-200/91-95~now is 150/75. Aunt had same problem when she was my age and she's still alive (83). Mom, Grandma and Great-Grandma all lived to 82 and above. Interested in increasing quality of life when you have those genes!!!
Realized I needed help if I was to balance my raw foods. Alissa's book and DVD are on order and should be here this week.:)
Family not supportive~doing it anyway! The small changes already have made a difference!! I need all the help I can get!!!:o
