Just introducing myself

[Got2B.Raw]

I've enjoyed this website for several years. But I've only lurked since I have never really applied the lifestyle to my own life. I guess you could say I've done a lot of research!

I'm 53 yrs old, and very unhappy and unhealthy. Diabetic, back problems, knee problems, depression problems, yada yada. I can't travel, can't go to church, can't walk, and don't know how I manage to hang on to my job. I've spent the last 4 years chasing doctors to see if they could supply relief for the pain in my body. To date, I've gotten worse not better.

I've finally come to the realization that by God's grace I MUST undertake this lifestyle. My single biggest addiction is FOOD, so I'm really nervous and unsure of this step. But I want to get well and begin living life again.

Wow, sorry you're going through so much.

I watched three raw videos the other day and one was similar to The Biggest Loser but instead of losing weight, they were trying to get off their diabetic meds through raw. It was amazing, in 30 days all the members succeeded except one who was able to cut his insulin in half.

Have you begun any raw eating yet?

Well, you've got it figured out!

You've got to be raw!

It works, it really works. Raw food is so healing. I don't know how I lived my life before with all the pain and annoyance of my problems -- but I know I thank God EVERY DAY for finding this lifestyle.
