My name is Dolly and I'm new here and new to raw.

This is an awesome community and very inspiring to me.

My reasons for going raw seem to be different than what I've read so far, but I guess I've had a few health concerns, but prayer has kept me going.

I believe my body is a temple and I want to treat this temple with the greatest respect and do my very best to give it the best chance at life.

I don't want my body to be a hinderance to the purpose that God has for me and so I'm just laying it down for him.

I'm very encouraged when I read all of the many posts and it keeps my mind on my goal. I'm 5'9" and 175 think I lost a few more pounds but I will just leave it there for now. I don't have any equipment so I'm just doing the very simple diet and I don't have any recipes. I haven't purchased Alissa's book yet but working up to it.

I'm just really happy to be here and I want to encourage you guys to just keep encouraging one another it's fabulous. I don't have any raw friends but I'm noticing that since I made up my mind to do this I keep meeting other people who lead the raw lifestyle. That's just humbling to me in so many ways.

Well just wanted to say hi and thanks for letting me be a part of this community.

Blessings,

Dolly/Vessel

Hello Dolly and welcome! Build it and they will come regarding your comment about meeting more health conscious people. I have experienced something similar. I love your approach to raw...the body is the temple.

Best wishes on your journey!
