    I discovered Raw from books checked out from the library late last year. YEARS ago, I went vegetarian for 5 years (wanted to eat more veggies so in order to force myself to, I dumped all meat and fish), then slowly got back on SAD. I never imagined that I could become vegan, let alone raw until Jan 08.

    My weight increased, got hypothryoid goiter (not on meds now) and basicaly been a miserable SAD person, especially from my stomach and allergies.

    Then I got into ...
