newbie rawbie from New Zealand * waves hello to you all

:holysheep: what a great place you have here ! I'm tickled pink to have found you guys...

the buzz about the place tells me I'm in the right place, ooh yeah!

I am brand spanking new at 100% raw, juicing and smoothies. I have a tremendous amount of weight to lose and I believe raw is the way to go. The health benefits sound amazing and I've read so much from this thread to be convinced enough to give it all I got :bolt

I'm sick of feeling sick and sluggish, time to get it done...

I had never been overweight in my life until approx 4 years ago where I doubled my natural body weight in 10 months! Been a drama to move it since, aaagghhh! anyways, this is my journey and day 1 started yesterday...

be gentle with me :eat

hello :) You'll find plenty of inspiration here. I found the forum while researching raw food diet for cats and dogs. Been here ever since - on and off.

well day 4 today and 7.6lbs down, pretty darn rawsome ! and I made up my own juice recipe this morning! lol ... OMG I downed that 1.5 litres (50 ounces) like there was no tomorrow, tasted so yum!

Reckon I'm gonna love this weight loss journey and weirdly enough it feels "right" we shall see. one day at a time is me.
