Hi all I have not gone raw honestly I have not attempted to go raw. I got Alissa's book for another book in my collection of lose weight get healthy books that I never do anything about starting.
I'm very very overweight and I know have developed a fungal(yeast) infection all over my body. It then turned into a large cyst in my leg I'm on an antibiotic now and an anti fungal and several creams and powders. My leg hurts so bad I'm on lortab I can't sleep or function. I'm now seriously considering the raw diet but am wondering if it would be ok for me to start something like this while I'm so sick. I don't know if I should wait and take the chance of getting worse or hope the good eating will help me heal. I'm suspecting if the infection doesn't get better I'm going to be really bad off. I'm very sad and depressed because it's so horrible I'm in pain all the time.
Sorry to wine and complain just looking for some advice about the best way to go about starting.
Thanks.

I think a raw diet would be the best thing you can do for yourself at this time!! You'll be surprised how good you feel within a few days! :)

Start now! Just remember that you'll feel worse before you feel better with the raw diet, more than likely. Soon enough, however, you'll feel 100% better. If you keep eating the way you are now, it sounds like you're going to feel badly now and later. We're here for you! This is a very supportive forum!
