Hello,

My name is Gina, and I'm here to get and stay motivated. I'm still in the process of cleaning out my kitchen and purchasing some preparation items, such as a Vita-Mix, dehydrator, sprouter, etc. I should have everything in place by next week.

I'm 39 years old, married, and mom to a 21-year-old daughter who is in the Coast Guard. I'm self-employed, which means I am in the house all day with access to all the food that's here. It will be nice not to have garbage to snack on. I estimate I need to lose about 20 pounds in order for me to feel better. Hopefully this new style of eating/living will get me there.

We live in SW Oklahoma. We have 3 male pugs, ranging in age from 21 (yes, a 21-year-old pug!) to 3. When I'm not working, they keep me busy.

That's my life in a nutshell. :rolleyes:

Gina

Hey Gina - welcome! Do yourself a HUGE favor - get Alissa's book and DVD and read and watch. Excellent tools to help understand and use the raw food lifestyle. I know. I have oodles of books and hers I always refer to. Plus read and read this forum - using the search up above. TONS of info and recipes here.

You wait. You are gonna feel amazing!

Welcome!!!

Thanks for the welcome, and I forgot to mention that I did order the book the other day, and it's been shipped, so I'm just waiting on it. :D
