    I have a gorgeous daughter, age 27, who suffers from digestive problems and miserable periods. I am trying to help her by setting the example. I don't see her often as she lives in another city, but when she sees me next she is in for a shock. She was worried about my health as I am 62. I just know she will be very curious about what I have done for myself. I won't even speak about it until she is ready. Aren't our children blessed to have such loving mums?!!:)

    I'm in the same situation. I've got health problems and had to go raw. It makes it easier for me to stay raw knowing that if I go back I could die. I don't feel deprived. My body loves raw! Stick w/ it. I'm about to finish my first 30 days and I've seen a total transformation. Good luck in your journey.

    Sounds like a great plan of action. Just take it one step at a time & don't get discouraged if you get a bit sidetracked on your journey. Sometimes the path is straight forward, sometimes it has detours - the final destination is the same. Good for you - wanting to take this raw adventure with us! Have a wonderful day~

    Those are all the best reasons for doing this, rawsexy! Good girl. My daughter was also very worried about me - still is - but she won't be seeing me for a while - is she ever in for a surprise! Have a great day reaching for those goals!

    A word of caution....we attract what we present. If you dwell on how you will appear outwardly, you may regret it later. You want this change to go deeper I am sure and not just to get back at your exes. Focus on how raw food will change how you think and take baby steps like many here on the forum advise. And truly value yourself for who you are inside. Believe me, I speak from experience. Hindsight is often 20/20. All the best on your new journey.:)

    So glad that you see the need to take care of yourself. You will be just fine and you will be setting such a fine example for your children. It will change your life, I am pretty sure of this even though I am quite new at eating raw and stumble lots. But I have seen and felt a huge difference in how I look and feel when eating raw for the most part. To be cont'd........
