Ready to come back to raw

[donnyandcathy]

I was on the raw food road for 5 months back in 2009.
Had a lot of health issues come up, a lot of confusing info. coming from my doctors, and trying to figure things out.
I decided to come off raw food and ended up going WAY off for the past year and a half.
My health has continued to get worse, with new symptoms and new diagnosis coming out all the time.
I have not turned to medication, but instead have learned to live with my symptoms.
I have decided that I am tired of living this way, and I know what the answer is.... high raw and juicing.
So, tomorrow I begin my journey, and I'm ready for improvement in my health.
I am planning on doing a juice fast for as long as I can, and then going to all raw. Last time I did this, I felt my best when I ate a lot
of fruit and lower in fat. Too bad that I'm starting at the end of summer when all my favorite fruit is going out of season :sad:
I'm excited to get to meet all the new faces on here, and get reacquainted with all my old friends.
Blessings,
Cathy

hi d and c ! glad to see you back to raw foodism as i totallybelieve its the way , even if it takes years in alot of cases its still the ultimate solution ! im in a mode of fasting every monday for 24 hours on water in order to get back in stride of doing longerfasts . mainly for long term improvement of appetite control as without regular fasting i can get into big ruts of over eating for many months . happy fasting :-)

:hug Soooo gud to see you back too! AWESOME to see all our Rawbie friends again! Sorry to hear that you've been really going through it with your health... I know being back on the Living foods will be so healing. I love michigan Roman'z program of fasting regularly to prepare himself for longer fasts... gunna adopt that one for myself too! i think it will be very helpful for me in finding balance again.
see you around the posts !! :heart

Thanks so much for the warm welcome back!!
I agree with you michigan roman, and I'm going to give it my all.
Today I have done a water fast, so I will break it with juice tomorrow. It will have been an over 48 hour water fast.
If I wake up feeling I need to go longer with the water fast, then I will.

abadam, not sure what your point was??
