I'm still seeking a healthy weight, but living on live foods has meant so much more than just weight loss. I LOVE being RAW! :D

Thank you all very much!!!

I wish I had a picture at my starting weight of 223lbs. The difference in appearance would be even more dramatic. The picture at 211lbs was taken after about 2 weeks raw.

Total weight loss so far after one year on a 100% raw diet 45 lbs. If I didn't make so many raw treats or did a little exercise I might have lost even more. :rolleyes:

I have experienced so many other benefits, too. My life has changed dramatically, and still is. All for the better. :)

I thought I saw a glow in your first pic... no doubt since you were raw for 2 weeks!

You look 20 years younger and I bet you feel it too! Congrats!!! (((hugs)))

I see, not so much the physical weight etc, but the look in your eyes. Like a huge emotional weight was released too, as raw does that.

Congratulations...what an accomplishment!!!!
Here is an instant party, just add water....hahaha

French, Thank you. I'm stunned with how fast a year passed. I kept telling myself this is it. The year is going to pass whether I do it or not, so DO IT!

Congratulations on your first month!

Thank you, Springtime! My hair stylist was so pleased when I finally agreed to let her have her way with my hair. I'm keeping it this way.

Your signature line is one of my favorites. :) http://i305.photobucket.com/albums/nn214/RawKnitster/LeapandtheNetAppears.jpg
