Hey everyone! I'm from Orlando, FL and I've yo-yo'ed between 80-95% raw for 2 months now.
It started as a simple "I don't want sandwiches for lunch anymore... hmm, I'm gonna get some fruits and veggies to nosh on instead!" I started to feel great, and started eating raw fruits and veggies for dinner too...then breakfast as well. Fortunately this has been a long time coming I suppose and I've always taken pretty good care of myself and didn't experience a detox period. I lost 20 lbs. in about a month (it needed to go anyway!). I bought a Vitamix last weekend and I've been having a blast coming up with new recipes. I'm very excited to find this community because everyone I know thinks I'm loony tunes only eating raw fruits, veggies and nuts.
I've done a lot of research and reading on this but I still have some questions so I hope I don't drive you all crazy.
:D
