Hi all, my name is Karen and I hail from Marysville Washington, currently snowing....
I am fairly new to the raw journey, 3 weeks this time but I went raw for 3 months last summer. This time it is for good I believe. I have 5 in the family, DH is open to raw but prepares his own stuff on the side, DS (5) eats what he feels like whether it is raw or not, 2DD's are totally SAD, but will occaisionally drink green smoothies if the green part is hidden by blueberries.
I am making this change for health reasons, I have never been this large (270) and am pre-diabetic since giving birth to DS almost 6 years ago. I really don't want to cross that bridge and am hoping I can reverse the condition eventually.
So far I have dropped 7 pounds but my main problem is I have suddenly developed very dry skin on hands, elbows and feet.
Looking forward to meeting you all and learning...
Trying to find some local raw foodies to maybe do occaissional potlucks with...
