[chloe]

hello, my name chloe. im new to the program. i am about to start 30 day challenge tomorrow. ive been trying raw on and off for a few months. seems to be the only thing that really works to make me feel better. ive been sick for about 4 years and im only 23!!! happened after taking birth control and antibiotics at same time. ive healed alot since then through cleansing and eating better, but i still have daily headaches which are my number one complaint. ive created a journal inthe 30 day challenge area, not sure if i did it right? but yeah, i live in maryland. i go to school, u of maryland. i would love some raw friends. ok...have a good night!

Hi Chloe, welcome!!! glad you are here. Sorry you have been led this way by ill health. I too have lots of headaches. Some months seems I have more days with a headache that without. I'm just starting raw and not 100%yet, but I think I'm doing better with the headaches. Good luck with your 30challenge. I know you can do it. Keep coming back the folks here are wonderful. Blessings Earthmama

C'mon in, Chloe!

My gramma lives in College Park - right around the corner from the university. I grew up in Maryland.

University life and food... this could be a great thing for you, or a more-harder thing for you.

Are you located in the campus dorms?

Find support ( people with skin on ) where you are. Even if that is a raw group located in the university or located outside ( or both U. of MD. is big ).

Take things to school with you and keep them in your backpack/bag for convenience... like fresh/ripe fruit - some nuts/seeds - and there are recipes for "fudge balls" that keep well as you travel. I make my idea of energy balls...and I send them to work with my husband.. I keep them with me during the day. They've helped me stay mostly light-food the rest of the day and evening.

Hi Chloe! Welcome!

I have had headaches my entirely life, but they did go away after being raw for about a month. Please don't give up!

PM me if you need support.
