Hello

[StephieJo]

I'm Steph. I'm 37 years old(soon to be 38, arg), mom of two girls, married. I live in the Phoenix area. I work in my sister's bakery as a baker and cake decorator. I'm not yet raw but have been quite intrigued for some time now. I bought Alissa's book several months ago and I'm really glad I did, it has a wealth of info. I am changing my life this year in drastic ways, one of which is diet. I have always been a "healthy" eater, compared to the majority, anyway. Was a veggie for 13 years and even though I went back to eating meat when I was 29, I rarely do. I just have never liked the stuff. Anyway, I am slowly integrating raw into my diet, trying new recipes from Alissa's book each week, adding more raw ingredients in my fridge as well, and putting more raw on the dinner table! So I have come here for guidance, ideas, info, and I have no doubt I'll meet some great folks as well. Thanks for reading!

Welcome StephieJo. Have you become immune to the bakery temptations? You should enjoy making raw treats. :)

Getting Alissa's book was a great first step in going raw. I have over 20 books on raw and hers is my favorite.

Good luck on your raw journey and resisting temptation at the bakery! I would take up Dimond on her suggestion and make raw treats and be sure to always have some with you at work. (That is the only way I could resist on a stressful day)
