Hi i am a seventeen year old girl. I am vegan at the moment but trying to switch to raw. So far it hasn't been easy at all. I start my days raw but by dinner time i always make something to eat. I've been cosistently trying to be raw for a week and each day I'm doing better. I don't know whether I want to stay raw forever, but for a couple of months at least just to cleanse myself.
I bought the miracle blender today and have made two smoothies so far. It's great. I didn't know smoothies coud be so filling. I just don't feel the need to eat anymore.

I use Prairie naturals cold milled hemp protein powder in my smoothies.
Does anyone else use this?

Glowstick,

Do you have Alissa's book? If not, get it as soon as you can. It has lots of recipes in it that might help you not want cooked foods so much.

Welcome!
I am 18 and it is nice to have other young people here. I was a vegan for 3 years. Then I went 100% raw vegan in November 2007 and I haven't looked back since. Raw is wonderfully life changing. I wish you the best of luck!

P.S. have you tried raw cacao? It is awesome :D .
