Hi, everyone.

I've been doing the raw challenge for about a week now. I'm a college student who was addicted to fried and high-sugared junk food only a week ago. I gained a bit of weight, got a LOT of acne, and felt lethargic and gross almost all of the time. I was so toxic that I became depressed. My depression made me anti-social and sedentary. My lack of exercise made me more toxic. A vicious cycle. It was time for me to change.

Ever since I started the challenge, I noticed a lot of physical and emotional changes in me. I feel so much happier and lighter. I already lost 5 lbs. (which is AMAZING to me because I've always struggled with my weight). I'm still a bit anti-social right now due to my acne-ridden face, but I have good friends who try to draw me out.

My main goal for going through with this challenge is to detoxify, get healthier, and learn good habits. My physical goals are to have a clear, glowing face, lose about 25 lbs. (103 lbs is within the healthy weight range for my height. I'm a short person.), and live past 100 years. =)

Thanks for reading about me.

Welcome Analee..
I started my challenge 11 days ago and I am loving it too. I have a feeling I will not go back to the old way of eating..live food=live bodies...

Thanks for the warm welcome, Basenjimamma. =).

I'm really happy that I found this forum. It feels like I'm going through this with a community rather than by myself.

Hi, Analee!

I am like you eating raw since last week. Look forward to seeing you around here.

Hey, also, take note that the most common food allergy causing acne is dairy. So your skin should improve for that reason alone!
