New and Needs support....

[Nia]

Hi my name is Nia, I am 15 years old and I am completely convinced that raw food is the only food for humans.:D I have been a SAD eater most of my life. My mom is the one who got me intrested in raw in the first place. After tons of research I realized it made perfect sense. My parents also have faith in raw food, but can't break from their cooked lifestyle. I realize if I ever want to be happy and healthy I need a change. So I have tried over and over, falling again and again. My whole family and all my friends are sad eaters and sometimes food is soo expensive. So I am going to try AGAIN because I have so much faith in this way of eating. I just need some support because when I slip I beat myself up terribly. I don't want to be SAD for the rest of my life:( Sorry for going on and on but I think it's important to know what I'm coming from. Thanx for your help!:)

Welcome Nia. I hope you find the support you are seeking here. (((hugs)))

Remember, raw can be simple... a banana - green smoothie - a salad. Hopefully these are all things your parents have in the house daily.

It's great you are taking your health seriously! Congrats!!!

Watching you might also give the rest of your family more incentive to go for it too! :)

Thanx so much. I have been trying and It really is a challenge. I am so grateful to everyone! hey does it seem like the more determined you are to stay away from cooked food, the more it is offered to you??;)
