I'm new here and new to eating Raw.

The beginning of March I ended up in the ER and then was admitted to the hospital. I found out I have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and heart disease. :(

I've never been a person that takes medication so these prescriptions go against my better judgement. My plan is to get this weight off (30-50 lbs.), eat raw, and get off these meds. At the same time I plan on blowing my doctors away with the improvements I make over this next year.

I went to the library several weeks ago and grabbed all the books on "eating" and "diets" I could find. Then I skimmed them looking for something that rang true to me. Eating Raw was it. So I'm now reading a few books and digging into different web pages on the internet.

This is one of my favorites!

Hi Nora! I think your plan is a great one and your instincts are on point. I experienced some health issues myself and raw turned everything around. Wishing you much success.
