A skin update!!!! (happy dance!)

[abeautifulworld]

I'm on day 18 of eating 100% raw (I've been following Alissa's thirty day plan) and I am DELIGHTED to report that my skin, my terrible awful broken out skin that has been consistently broken out for two and a half years...is clear. Completely, totally, 100% crystal clear. Not a blemish to be seen. I am just SOOO happy. I tried EVERYTHING over the past couple of years. Prescription creams, all of the natural remedies (you name it...I've tried it,) and FINALLY it seems that eating raw was the answer. :)

So for anybody who is struggling with bad skin, try eating 100% raw. It's incredible what a change my skin has undergone in the past three weeks! I am so excited to keep eating this way to see what other wonderful things my body can do!

[margoss]

I felt so good when I saw my in-laws & they commented on how good my skin looked..not to mention that I left my 'back cheeks' at home:D!

I love what Alissa says... she says... if raw isn't giving you the results you are looking for (skin, weight release etc.) then look at what you are eating that isn't raw... not at what you are eating that is raw.

Cause raw rawks... it works... and here you are proving it again!!!

Ooh congrats!! :D Has anyone in your life commented on it?

[abeautifulworld]

Well, I went to a raw foods potluck the other day and was talking about how I'd had skin issues, and a lady said, "Your skin looks beautiful now!" so that was very nice. =-) It's going to be nice this summer to go swimming and to walk around without makeup on and not be self conscious.

Robthom, do you have Living on Live Food? (I feel like that's how everyone responds to questions on this forum!) Alissa Cohen outlines a thirty day plan to help you make the transition to eating 100% raw. She makes it incredibly easy and the recipes are all pretty good. After I'm finished with the 30 day plan, I think I'll make up my own. =-)

But this is what I've typically been eating if I deviate from the plan:
Breakfast every day: green smoothie with 1 banana, tsp. honey, one or two handfuls of spinach leaves, 1 tablespoon tahini, sometimes some cacao powder or carob.

Lunch: a salad, collard or nori wraps with pate, or leftovers from the night before

Dinner: one of Alissa's recipes, or sometimes just a smoothie.

Desserts: Lots. =-) I don't want to feel deprived, so I always have cookies and/or fudge and/or other goodies around.

Thats great :)
Its surprising the changes that happen when eating raw foods. Before raw I had a BIG bottom and now its tiny because my body fat has melted away. :)
Keep eating raw foods and keep getting the best gifts you can only get by receiving the benefits of living the raw food lifestyle.

Yay!! I have struggled with acne for years, so I know how exciting an announcement this is for you.

I've also had really good results with coconut oil. It seems counterintuitive, but I rub a small amount on my face before I go to bed, and it seems to have helped my skin quite a bit.

Congrats and keep it up!

Wow, congrats! That is quite an accomplishment. :)

My skin is terrible, so anytime I read something like this it makes me want to stick to a 100% raw plan.
