I'm new!

Hey Everyone!

I'm new to raw - starting today! :eat:

I've thought about it for a while, but couldn't imagine such an extreme change in my diet (as I've eaten the SAD all of my 30 years).

My motivation is to feel better, to sleep better, and to achieve better health overall.

I'm 5'6", 224 lbs, and 30 years old and I'm thrilled to go raw! :excited:

A friend of mine in real life introduced me to the idea of going raw. I decided to read up on it and really liked what I found. I've tried so many "diets" throughout my life, but I've never actually thought through what I'm fueling my body with and what might be best for my health and well being.

I woke up this morning from a restless night of sleep feeling sore and exhausted. It was the perfect time to change something radical - like the way I view food.

For breakfast I had a banana smoothie and I'm eating grapes now for lunch. I'm stocked up on all kinds of fresh, whole foods and I'm feeling good. So far no headache, despite cutting caffeine out cold turkey!

Welcome and to best of eating pleasures! You will enjoy this way of eating. While you will have some challenges, you will never view food the same way and you will be glad of it. Oh, and lately, the best thing I've eaten is pineapple...fresh and organic. I bite into it and think that there is nothing better!
