Hi everyone!

My name is Davina and beginning this Thursday (Oct. 1) I'll be attempting my first 30 day Raw Food Challenge. I've done about a week raw in the past and that's as far as I've gotten. This time, I'm going to go for the full month and I'm embarking on this journey with coworkers/friends (although the agreement is to allow for 1 cooked meal/snack a day - I'm going to opt out). My plan is to juice or at least one week of the 30 days from (10/8-10/14).

I'll be here looking for support and recipes! Since I'm pretty new to this I'll be more basic with my meals - whole fruits, grains, nuts and veggies.

I'm in the DC Metro area (US) if anyone is interested in connecting!

I think i will go raw too in October. I need to focus on my health: diabetes, high blood pressure. I'm a nurse so i've been at this for a while. My goal is to get off medications. I started back doin 80% raw and feeling better already and using less medication. So count me in! I'm trying to get my co-worker to do it too.

Thanks everyone! So excited about these upcoming 30 days. Wishing you all the best too.


Yesterday early-evening I went to a local co-op in my area to get some things for Thursday. I saw a woman and her kids there and I noticed that she seemed so full of energy and she had gorgeous skin. She was asking around to find out if they had any raw snacks and one of the attendants mentioned that she had shed a lot of weight. She said, "Yeah, I went raw." I told her I was working towards that myself and she told me to "Work it out!" That was great motivation!

Taking this last day to mentally prepare.


Blessings -

Davina
