Hi there,
I am back after a LONG hiatus from being raw. Actually, I have been raw off and on for about 7 years. I go in spurts. While I have done 100% raw for long stretches, I find that being about 80-90% raw works best for me for some reason. Helps me to feel more grounded and less loopy. Maybe one day I can be 100%. I strive for it. I would love to be like the 80/10/10 folks.
Hopefully this forum will inspire me to stick with it better this time around.
Here are some things I notice when eating high raw:
1.) Feel much happier, lighter, energetic
2.) Skin looks fabulous, glowing, almost sun-kissed, even if I haven't been in the sun.
3.) I don't sunburn while high raw
4.) No constipation, digestion runs amazingly well
5.) Fat loss, cellulite disappears, clothes get looser.
6.) Sleep is better, deeper
7.) Wrinkles seem to fill in or fade away
I know there are other benefits, but it is all I can think of now.
I know when I don't eat high raw, I just feel downright crappy and nasty.
Hopefully with spring around the corner, I can stick to it better.
